Shopping special

Charlton's League One home clash with promotion rivals Bristol Rovers on Tuesday night coincides with a special Valley Gold shopping day.

The scheme, which supports the club's youth academy, celebrated its 20th anniversary earlier this year, and members can benefit from a 10 per cent reduction on all Addicks merchandise throughout the year.

However, the club is offering members a further five per cent reduction as part of the extra promotion, so supporters can get 15 per cent off their Christmas shopping on Tuesday.

The same discount will apply on two more occasions - Saturday, December 5th (the day the Addicks face Southend United at home) and Wednesday, December 16th.

There is still time for fans to sign up and ensure they qualify for the Superstore reductions as well as get their name is in the hat for the Valley Gold 12 Days of Christmas draws.

One member a day will win £1,000 in the draw, with a total of £11,000 given away before the big Christmas prize of £5,000 is handed out on the 12th day.

Valley Gold is just £10 per month, and in addition to the cash prize draws and Superstore discounts, the benefits of membership include greater ticket priority for high-demand matches and exclusive member-only events.

More details on Valley Gold are available here, where fans can download an application form to be returned to the Valley Gold office at The Valley. Alternatively, call Lisa Squires on 020-8244 7771 or email lisa.squires@cafc.co.uk
