Buy a Super 6 bundle for the final half dozen home games of the season. Tickets work out at £18.88 if you do This will belly flop, but could be an indication that the SMT is concerned at the very low home attendances this season (our real average must be well below 10,000 now). Attendances are bound to increase anyway for our final 2-3 home games, if we have a chance of promotion. Is anyone tempted by this offer ?
What are the odds of not seeing a noticeable increase in the crowds, and still not taking us to the fictitious average of 15,500 from Methven and Ridiculous.
If it enjoys any success the SMT must learn from it and reduce all prices. The two-thirds empty Valley was a sorry sight on Tuesday.
In principle the idea cannot be argued, unfortunately the prices are still too high at £18.50, £24.50 or £30 per game. I am guessing that they have not f***** up the pricing in that these tickets are cheaper than what existing season tickets pay.
We have got Burton at home last day of the season. There won’t be 15,000 in there. The “fans” will come back for the Play Offs though
We sold out H&A for the play off semi v Donny in 2019. I’ll never forget our amazing 3-1 win up there, not least because I bumped into @ElfsborgAddick in Doncaster Town Centre
If the Club has ended up in the situation that even winning football on the pitch and gaining promotion will not attract disillusioned fans back to the Valley, then Charlton Athletic is in terminal decline. The gravy-train riding SMT is right to be concerned about that. We should all be deeply concerned about it. Very sadly I have to conclude that it is inevitable. What is the point of scrapping our way back into the basement of the Championship when we will see the lowest 2nd tier crowds at Floyd Road of all time, while the SMT pretends there are 20,000+ in the stadium. If CAFC is losing £800,000 per month now, you can easily double that next season. The admirable die-hard crowd of 3,000+ fans who will travel anywhere to support the Club won't have a Club to support.
