Season Ticket Renewal
Comments
-
Last august they blamed Royal Mail for the season ticket cock up but they are more than willing to trust their services this year.Dansk_Red said:Just had this e-mail in response to my request for an ST application form, sent to the new e-mail address.
Dear Mr
Thank you for your email. Season ticket brochures have been posted all season ticket holders and should arrive by early next week.
Regards
Mandy Anderson-Myers
Seems all season ticket holders will be receiving a brochure unlike last year.
Make your mind up. If they are incompetent why would you still use them. Or was the excuse last August more billy bull from the football club0 -
Think that a lot would renew quickly of those that wanted to move or grab a seat in the Covered End Lower. So other than those waiting until pay day this is the initial "surge", happily it is a disastrous return for the regime. Hopefully it will continue.0

You've never experienced the real thing, then? Otherwise you wouldn't be so quick to use that emotive insult in this context, which is plain wrong.Stone said:
435 scabs and counting.....Rob7Lee said:A post on twitter says 435 renewals so far, not exactly flying out the door, especially as I suspect a lot are lower north.

I am still undecided, but to call fellow fans "scabs" is horrible.3

Keyboard warriors. Personally I enjoy the time I get to spend with my kids by going to football, social time with friends, the fact that people want to call me and my kids "scabs" on a forum tells me a lot about them

Cant agree with the word 'scabs'. I live in an ex-mining area and 'scab' is an emotive word that affects peoples families.
Whilst, I'm sure you know, I'm no supporter of RD and his cohorts, and want them to go and go now, I would never call a fellow CAFC fan a scab, can you edit and change the word please?
Cheers

Personally I would rather invite the person who uses the word "scab" to say it to people's faces1

It's everyone's personal choice whether they renew or not. Doesn't make them any less of a fan. Same with the regime. You don't have to boycott/protest to be a genuine fan. We should respect everyone's decision but try to convince them of the argument, and you won't do that by insulting them.1

I am not going to criticise anyone for buying a season ticket, it is up to each individual to make up their own mind.3
-
I would doubt if the person that used the word "scab" actually understands how it is used and why it is used.

I'm personally disappointed in people who renew early (as I think keeping your wallet shut for a few months is the most effective protest) - why give him money now when you will not lose your seat if you delay till just before the season starts. But scabs? The valley is no picket line.5

how about turncoats?0

People should be allowed to choose when they want to renew their tickets where they want to sit people.
Everyone has a choice in life and if they don't agree with your opinion deal with it.0 -

erm alright, how about the classic: Traitor? traitor to ones cause. or renegade? though renegade sounds quite cool so maybe not that. we got until next season anyway.0 -
People have their reasons for renewing, personally I can't see why you would want to.
But at the end of the day people have a choice and it they choose to renew then they don't deserve to be called a scab.3 -
People who have renewed since RD released that Statement implicitly agrees that that was an appropriate way to address supporters, and that you support RD's continued ownership and strategy for the club. They aren't scabs but neither are they helping those of us trying to save the club.8

I renewed 2 adults and 1 child last week - relocated to Lower North from Block A, East Stand. I will be attending all Home games next year so, at £160 fwith my VG membership, that's £8.42 per game and means paying £139 less to RD over the 19 games. Is that justifiable enough not to be called a 'scab'? Think about it.0

BUT
Why give them the money so quickly. It's not like the tickets will sell out so let them sweat for the money9 -
This is my whole point. I never said don't renew. My previous post clearly states that there is no excuse to renew before July. I appreciate peoples long service awards etc that they are reluctant to give up.JohnnyH2 said:

Some people just don't get it.5 -
@stone, I don't think people disagree with your sentiment, its just the word 'scab' - that is a very harsh and uncalled for word in my opinion.1

I renewed last week and relocated with my two boys to the lower north from next season. I love the time I get spend with them at football above most other things and had the money available so just paid up whilst I could. THE statement from Roly this week was a kick in the bollocks and would of made me delay but like @meldrew66 said, the club would have made more from me next season regardless1

Fair enough. As others have said, your choice.StewieGriffinSE7 said:I renewed last week and relocated with my two boys to the lower north from next season.

Let's just hope your boys enjoy watching a Charlton team made up of cheap foreign imports and kids out of the youth team lose to the likes of Bury and Fleetwood next year at a near empty Valley.1 -

I understand that people love going and enjoy a bit of father and son / Daughter time (for example), used to really enjoy it myself, we just do other things together now which are much more enjoyable and dont result in walking out of the ground pissed off at 4.45. Sure we will go back to it, but just not whilst we're being ruined by Roly and co.

Well said...if dads decide to take their children to games it's what we need as they are the next generation. I know for a fact me and my mates have had some great times at away games with our boys and to watch our sons growing up together and do what we did as mates by going to away games and having a laugh I can't think of anything better.StewieGriffinSE7 said:I renewed last week and relocated with my two boys to the lower north from next season.

Because certain elements don't wish to renew or leave it till July that's your choice just as it is for parents to take their kids to games or go with their mates.
I have supported this club since the early 70s and my son is the forth generation of Charlton fans in my family.
I would watch my team regardless what league and what ground.1 -

I think if anyone doesn't get it is people who make stupid comments as well as budget for the year. July is a month when families go on holiday therefore they may want to free up cash for the holiday rather than buy a season ticket in July just to appease people who feel it is ok to call people "scabs" on a forum0 -
Your last line - it's not about relegation. People like me will not be staying away because we will be in League One. Under different owners I would be renewing even when relegated. I just don't see why anyone would give these horrible pieces of work their money early. The CARD protest is asking for people to *delay* purchasing. You don't have to stay away (but loads of us will).WhenIwasLittleBoy said:
