If it’s any comfort, the one thing I’ve learned from every single sold out away game or ‘big game’, tickets ALWAYS become available in the run up to the game due to drop outs in groups.LTKapal said:slightly concerned it won't make phase 5 as I live up NORF so I've only managed 140 points this seasonAny Charlton fan that wants a ticket to this will get one, 100%.14 -
You can only buy 7 tickets in one transaction.carly burn said:What is the 7 ticket rule? I thought everyone ,ST's and others were limited to 4 per person??
If you want to maximise your tickets/ST ratio you'd have to make multiple transactions.
The cynics might say that the transaction fee being levied may be influencing the 7-ticket limit.4 -
They are, but if you have 4 family members on your link to your profile you can only buy 7 tickets in one transaction not the 12 if they all bought separately.1

Exactly, especially if you're not fussy.Off_it said:Surely the big issue is getting tickets. Sitting together in a big group of more than 7 might be nice, but it's hardly the end of the world if you can't do that, is it?
And as has already been pointed out, all you need is two or three people to go online at the same time and you'll probably be able to all select tickets near each other at the same time before you checkout.
Anyone wanting to buy an 8 together running the buying operation solo, and if Charlton's daft policy of allowing single seats left behind is in play, go for a cock-block technique - buy 7 together and leave an awkward single, non aisle-seat next to it. Unless it's a rapidly shrinking block, no one will buy it, come back and scoop it up in the next transaction.
I have no idea if the club will be allowed to configure the sales site to leave spare singles, but we'll find out tomorrow.

Or log in in Chrome & Edge concurrently, under different cafc accounts, if that's within your skillset, and line the tickets up on different screens. Subject to the random queue times and basket hold times, obviously.

If more than 2 of you doing the buying, then it's not a problem to keep in contact with each other and line up your baskets.2 -
The 7 rule is Wembley imposed, not CAFC. Guess it is an anti bot / anti touting thing.8
-
Good info, thanks @Weegie Addick
Edit - again, the club could predict the pelters they'd get for this - just include "due to Wembley ticketing rules" and the misdirected angst instantly go away. Basic stuff.2 -

Makes sense now0 -
Any idea if we will get to pick the seat we want or do we just choose what category/block we want and get what we are given. If it's the latter then that makes the 7 ticket per transaction even more stupid.0
-
So can anyone explain how you go about the process of linking 2 season tickets to get your 7?
Is it at the point of purchase, or are we supposed to do something before hand to make sure we are set up?
EDIT - Worked it out - its the Manage my relationships option i presume.1 -

Can anyone explain how you link valley gold to your account, my dads had VG for years but not sure how he takes advantage of it in phase 3 as he doesn’t get to too many game anymore as he’s getting on. Does he just need to add the VG number when purchasing?

You don’t need to do anything. VG is automatically linked to your fan ID when you sign up for it.SCT1980 said:Can anyone explain how you link valley gold to your account, my dads had VG for years but not sure how he takes advantage of it in phase 3 as he doesn’t get to too many game anymore as he’s getting on.

Glad that you checked. At least nobody should fall foul now.tallboy said:

So we go as a group of 5 season ticket holders and want to get 6 extra for family. Most important is the 5 ST's sit together. So I go on and buy our 5 together. Can I then log back on to buy the other 6 as friends of the 5?1

Season ticket holders get too many tickets - simple and causing all this scramble and panic10

Thanks, appreciate the reply, hope so, as he signed up 20+ years ago.Brownie12 said:

I say that yet I’ve just read that the Green Man is opening at 8.30am. Anyone that needs a beer at 8.30 on a Sunday morning and isn’t about to board a flight has a problem. Very surprised the police and local licensing encourage it.AFKABartram said:Glad in a way it’s 1pm. Less chance of people getting too walloped beforehand. Would much rather have a proper drink after celebrating or drowning my sorrows than before
And you don’t need to say it, no, I’m not fun at parties :-)16 -
Ticketing website Q:
Do the relationships need to be listed as "Strong Relationship" to be able to log in using each others' accounts' purchasing power?
Or... Will "Friends and Family" and appearing mutually when logging in suffice?
Thanks0 -
No Palace allowed!valleynick66 said:
The public? Are we letting in the great unwashed as well?Peter_G said:
If they only sell 25,000 that will mean several blocks will be kept completely empty and could be released for sale to us or the public.Bedsaddick said:
How does selling them Block by Block work?Airman Brown said:“The O's have been allocated 36,945 seats in the East end of Wembley Stadium. Tickets will be sold on a block-by-block basis in an order determined by Wembley Stadium.”Given the amount of hospitality it’s doubtful we’ll be able to have as many as 52,000 eventually based on that (and accepting some hospitality could be counted).1 -
Not worried mate i just think its ridiculous for the reasons as stated. How many people who are not in the early phases will still look and slow down the website once its opened.AFKABartram said:
No way do most ST holders by 4 tickets. Don’t worryChippycafc said:
If all the season tickets holders purchase 4 it won't go down to the lower phases. Plus lots will buy for non Charlton fans.. It's ridiculous.The Red Robin said:
Is it? What’s a better solution? We’ve got 37k tickets. Every fan should be able to get one.Chippycafc said:4 tickets per person is ridiculous.
Why not do just two and i suspect it will be E Ticket you can always come back later and get more if there are some available.1 -
I think it's because their large coach and car park opens at 8am, so they can then sell them breakfast & drinks.AFKABartram said:

8.30 for a 1pm kick off, when most people will probably leave the pub by 12 anyway isn't so bad.AFKABartram said:

The day before though they open at 9am for a 3pm kick off which i can see being a lot worse.1 -

I think the police and council prefer it to the alternative of people getting cans and drinking randomly. Beer with your breakfast.AFKABartram said:
