So we have sold out all our 1,350 tickets for the 3 March game, we are asking for more but there are problems so it sounds like that's it if you haven't got your tickets now then you ain't going! Remember 2012-13 Season tickets now on sale at this season's prices AllHell
Look like someone's afraid of getting outshouted in their own ground... Oops, sorry, forgot about the safety concerns- although safety concerns don't seem to be worrying Chesterfield at all - 2000 tickets, thank you very much Spireites. Wiggins running at Francis is a seriously interesting prospect. We're gonna win this game, and well.
No rush to buy season tickets- we've got until April 5th at the old prices. This means that for £240:00 FHB jnr. and me will be able to watch (hopefully) a season of division 2 football, which is pretty good value. Slater, Jimenez &co. haven't really put a foot wrong IMO, and if it weren't for them I'm not sure that we'd be watching Charlton at The Valley.
Got my Bournemouth ticket at 10.10 on Saturday morning - they had all sold out by about 11.15. I'm in Southampton at the moment so there was no way I wasn't going to go, but I was worried I would have to go in the home end. I couldn't bear the thought of having to sit there silently whilst watching all the Charlton fans go mental when we score. Has anyone ever done that before? Sat in the home end for an away game I mean.
When we were in the Premier League we were lent 2 Wham season tickets and sat in the middle of the Wham fans to watch Charlton beat them 0-2. Obviously the Charlton fans were in good voice, so much so that the little lad behind me screamed "SSSSSSHHHHHHUUUUUUUTTTTTTT UUUUUPPPPPP!!!!" at the top of his voice. By coincidence the Charlton fans finished a song then, and the lad proudly turned to his dad and said "There! That stopped them!". Woudln't really like to do it again.
I did it at the old Den with some Wall work mates, one of the girls I was with put her bag on the ground, the guy behind said "I wouldn't leave that there luv" "why" said she "nobody can take it can they?" "No" said the guy behind "but the toilets get full at half time so people just go at the back of the stand...... it's a right waterfall here at times" he added with a grin How I miss the old days of standing in a stream of urine watching football!
Sitting with the home fans, keeping quiet when Charlton score is the easy bit. It's what to do when the home team score that's the problem. You can hardly start swearing and looking upset. Do you join in the cheering, punch the air and join in the chants?!?
The way I look at it AllHell, is that if we can confine Jordan Rhodes to 90 minutes of total ineffectiveness, we can do the same with Matt Tubbs. It's going to be a difficult game, no mistake and it may be hysteria setting in but at the moment, I seriously think we're capable of taking on anyone and beating them.
