Bit of an incentive to book early so they have an idea how many are coming is nothing new. Can't see it changing anyone's mind when it's probably half a pint or about 4 chips.
Rather a measly initial allocation. Probably based upon what we usually take to the Valley. It'll be much more on Sunday though and getting tickets on the day is going to be a real pain. There often long queues even when it's a couple of hundred paying on the day. I wouldn't be surprised if we have something approaching 1000 travelling without tickets, so definitely well worth arriving early.
Yep, I think the 2 people they have in the ticket hut at the Valley might be in for something of a shock on Sunday, they'll be inundated!
I'll be paying on the day and the no-one in the group I'm with bought in advance. Crazy that option isn't available online, 3 days ahead of the actual match!
Well I'm hoping my "2 people in the ticket hut" comment turns out not to be true! That's usually OK for a couple of hundred pay on the day customers, but I'd be surprised and disappointed if we have less that 1500 there on Sunday and I have a feeling it might be closer to 2000. The fact that our initial allocation sold out well in advance should alert Charlton that there's a high demand for away tickets.
The Chairboys sold out the initial allocation of 1000 tickets in the Jimmy Seed Stand at the Valley; fans will be able to pay on the day from the South Stand ticket office. Only card payments will be accepted. There will also be a price increase of £3 per adult ticket and £2 on any concession rate.’

All 1,000 have gone. It’s now pay on gate with a £3 surcharge
Allocation sold out.
Buy on the day available
Ah cool, thanks - a rare downside of no longer being on Twitter!
Ryan Isaac (ticket manager on WWFC twitter) has assured others that there are more than enough available on the day.
Yeah, that away end is massive. Last time I went I think we 3/4 filled the front section, then there's loads more seats behind the concourse.
Pretty sure the capacity is around 3,000.
I hadn't event thought about getting a ticket in advance. £3 on top is quite annoying
Seems a daft practice, for a game people can just click a button to watch at home instead.
If WW have sold an initial allocation of 1,000 tickets at Charlton, the away end at the Valley can hold up to 3,000. That would be nice to fill it!!!

It amazes me that a club the size of Charlton can't just sell and issue tickets digitally like we do

I wanted to go but might not bother if I've got to get there that early just to have a chance of getting in

Anyone know if it's cash or cashless?
