Palace cup tickets on 17:17 - Sep 4 by Antti_Heinola | Well, you've just said what I said, so all good. Crowds went down because we weren't doing so well in the Championship, it had little to do with pricing - it was still not bad then - not until Briatore turned up with his boutique did they rocket. Then when we were top of the table under Briatore it was packed every week and the Aunt Nelly's took over this board begging for tickets, despite prices. We were fuller in L1 because we were winning. Not saying cheap tickets didn't help, but if you're not winning it won't make any difference. If we were playing Orient, we'd be charging same as Brentford (as we did v Luton). If we were playing Brentford, no way would they be charging a tenner. It's not a comparable situation. As someone else said, we just charged a tenner for the Luton game and hardly anyone turned up, so it's not really better or smarter. |
I guess we'll see if we charge a tenner for adults and let kids in for free when we play Orient at home in the next round. | | | |

Palace cup tickets on 09:26 - Sep 4 by TK1 | Yes. Or...you just reward your loyal home fans who've been through three seasons of turmoil and dirge football with cheaper tickets in a nice local derby against higher placed opposition. Nice bit of fan PR, fill the ground, good vibes. Different strokes. It's the old Jim Frayling model which meant we had a packed ground in D2 even. I'm still going though, of course. |
Maybe they're just thinking they've already rewarded loyal fans by paying millions of pounds of their own money buying/loaning in some really exciting new players. I feel pretty good about the management team at the moment. It seems a funny time to moan about them. You get next to nothing in the EFL Cup - £10,000 plus 45% of the gate receipts. Anything they can recoup from these tickets will be ploughed back into the club. As Stowmarket says, some of that reduction would go to away fans in any case. I don't think you can compare a Premiership Club playing against much lower opposition with us playing against a Premiership Club. | | | |

Palace cup tickets on 15:42 - Sep 4 by simmo | It's reserved my ST seat for the game, but refuses to let me pay for it. I've never known a business/organisation that makes it so difficult to take my money. |
Just to follow up, got a call from Gavin at the BO and he said it's a ticketmaster issue and to call directly to book your ST seat for the game. Any ST holders have until 5pm Friday. The number was 02087402613 - I just did it and got through in a couple of mins. He also said if you subscribe to the auto cup feature it'll book your seat for every cup game regardless and if you can't make it they'll just process a refund. Given their system I'm not sure I trust that 100% - but it's an option for those that want to avoid this issue for the next round | |

I had the same problem. Also called up and waited 35 minutes, while on holiday in Spain. Made me very popular with my wife. | | | |

Yep, a mate of mine went to buy a season ticket after the feel good factor of beating Luton on Friday night, went online, only to be told you can’t purchase online and to phone the box office. He hasn’t bothered. | | | |
