Less than 24 hours until the big season ticket announcement (I would've thought). I predict the ST prices and details and general arrangements will be an ill thought through dogs dinner of a mess. It will have the added frisson of every club employee saying 'it's not me guv'.
I predict that they will be exactly the same as this season, because no one can be bothered and/or has the authority to make a change
If you buy a season ticket on April 12th or before club is sold ,Who gets the money.
Depends when it’s sold, I guess. I think it will show in the books as a liability as well as income because it’s effectively a loan until the games are played, but in cash terms it would get spent.
So season tickets go on sale in approx 16.5 hours time (assuming its a 9 am start at The Valley offices), I would now be amazed if between now (16:30 on 11th) if we hear the club has been sold! Its not difficult to work out that the current ownership will get the money, but as @Airman Brown states, it is effectively a loan until the new season starts and games are played. Any announcement, I believe, will have to come tonight or before they go on sale tomorrow. My guess is also that new owners may get a 'bounce' if they are selling the tickets as against our incumbent owner.
The important thing to remember is to reserve your actual seat apparently, they're in such demand that the offer of a reservation with an early purchase is so darn thoughtful. Remember what the leaflet or website said tomorrow (how did I do that?), buy it or lose it.
Are we going to get a statement from CARD? Would be good to remind people what they can/should do
I would hope people don't buy, but it is up to everyone to decide for themselves and CARD saying anything will irritate some.
Obviously understand that, but I think a little reminder that a takeover is “happening” and that people should wait until he goes would go down well in my books
Tell you what. If the boycotters return for the last 2 games i will put off buying a season ticket. Note This is not a dig at the boycotters its thier choice to do as they wish

Too right there will be no protests at the ground for the rest of the season and if rolands still here at the start of next season there will be no protests at the start.

But is it? Sounds to me like we have a willing seller and interested parties, yet no deal is anywhere near being agreed.

Hence the ‘happening’ Part- which would encourage people to wait regardless

The club, and if it is sold before the next season starts, the purchase price will presumably be adjusted to take this into account, as this is next season's money. Indeed even if it was sold during next season, some of the money would still belong to games not played yet and thus the new owners.
While someone buying a coffee and replica shirt on Saturday would filter through directly into income for Roland (through our share of the outsourced merchandise and catering sales), ditto match day ticket sales for this season, season tickets are unlikely to unless the club isn't sold before next season
There is no urgency to renew your season ticket. They can't even say there is an early bird price as surely the takeover has an effect on that.
I will renew but not until it's time and hopefully when I do it'll be under new ownership.
It will be really interesting what the season ticket prices are, and how long existing seats will be reserved for, especially as we don't know which division we will be in

Exactly. I'd love it if the new owners made the ticket prices even cheaper regardless of division just as a way to build up our support and a wink to the thousands of pounds supporters wasted under Roland.

Or "I'm just on Charlton Life" every time she asks what i'm doing on my phone.

This, this, this, this, this.

If that were the sorry case I am pretty certain the gloves would be off and protests would return in the vicinity of the stadium.
Under no circumstances will I renew until he has gone.
Just sell the club and FUCK OFF
