Many of you donated the unused cost of your ST to the Club for academy development. Thank you, now pay extra to watch the Charlton. JHFC, it's not the fiver it's the attitude to fans. Shameful

Shameful Can't say I agree. Fans had the choice of what they wanted the money to go towards. This now being a pre season game that we'd normally charge people for I think a £5 offer is pretty reasonable. With gate receipts literally overnight disappearing for clubs I'm not surprised or find it a shameful practice.

Different opinions, I shall end up paying but still think it's piss poor bearing in mind it will create a negative view for many and won't probably earn that much income.

More seriously, we're paying out the best part of £20m for Eze and looking to bring in other players, including a striker who is likely to cost upward of £15m. With the increased costs that the academy will incur and the loss of matchday income, I don't begrudge the club asking for a fiver. We got the Oxford game free. Of course, what the club are banking on is that fans will pay up to see Eze who will probably be in the squad (Possibly on the bench rather than a starter). Will I pay up? Probably.

i wont be joining the broadcast (already got plans for the day) given the revenue hit that football clubs will have taken over Covid 19 I would imaging there are plenty of them talking to each other looking for any imaginative ways possible to try to recoup funds, especially if / when the season starts & stadiums are still empty

I don't begrudge the club charging for it, although probably won't bother to watch it myself.
It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses. |
