    The most overhyped club in the country v the worst run club in the country.

    The smarmy American bullsh1tters v The Smarmy Oxford United supporting bullsh1tter.

    What a game we have to look forward to.

    And not just the actual match, but the sight of Global running between Home and Away ends like Road Runner, depending on who is winning.

    The Charlton marketing department have been running around like a headless Chicken. Even Brian Cole got into the act today saying the tickets are going fast. What a load of bollocks. I might give this one a miss.

    Saddest part of today was how empty the Valley was.

    The Upper North had big gaps in it, and the East can’t have been 20% full.

    But hey ho ….5,000 You Tubers are turning up next Saturday, hoping to get a selfie with Rob n’ Ryan.

    I wonder if they have a part for Charles Hawtrey in the next Deadpool film ?

    You just know the gate will be advertised as 20k, and only 10k Charlton

    I would like to attend, but my health has not kept pace with my ambitions of late.
    Various things are combining to make it very difficult for me now to get through a day's work.
    My responsibilities don't fit well with going part time, and the thought of perhaps having to retire through illness is abhorrent to me.

    Sorry chaps - I'm not looking for sympathy. I know we all have our crosses to bear.
    I just thought you should know why I may not be able to go.
    I'm forced to wonder whether I'd prefer a vlogger or an empty seat in my place. The latter I think. It would be more honest somehow.

    Sorry to hear this Lardy. I spoke to a fan after the game who couldn't buy tickets for the West Stand, so to that extent the ploy is working. It promises to be a strange atmosphere.

    What are people’s predictions for the attendance on Saturday ?

    Methven will do all he can to ensure it’s 20,000 plus, he’s got a KPI to hit for the investors.

    My prediction -

    Attendance will be given as 20,000

    Actual bums on seats - 16,000

    9,000 Charlton fans
    3,000 Wrexham fans
    4,000 plastics / day trippers

    I like the way that Brian Cole was saying that tickets are going fast. A ploy that the Theatre World use.

    It will have to withstand a lot of swaying from side to side

    To be fair, it’s out of order to accuse Global of supporting two clubs.

    He supports three.

    Have included the taffs allocation, very slippery.

    However, Charlie and gang are not keen on talking about the Stockport gate<doh>

    A well informed ticket judge says there were only 9,000 Charlton bums on seats for the Stockport game.

    This kind of patronising rubbish is all we see from many official Club websites.
    It's another good measure of how useless the owners are.
    CAFC aren't alone in spouting drivel like this and lying to their fans all the time, but we are one of the saddest examples at present.
