Have we sold out against Palace?

less than 200 tickets left from original 2900 + the additional 700 (or was it 900 not sure) according to someone I spoke to this evening.

Should be about 3600 of us I would guess.



As far as the game's concerned - I'd take a point.

Remember where we were only a few years ago - playing CP was not even an option.

In a couple of years when we have Falmer, and Noades is close to kicking them out we'll be able to play them on a more level playing field.

At the moment our respective playing budgets are further apart than Jordans legs - in the long run though - Falmer permitting our future is far brighter.

Jordan is in negotiations to buy Selhurst Park now by all accounts so getting kicked out wont happen. I hope Brighton get Falmer i really do but it will take a few years before everything clicks into place and you will still have a lot of cathing up to do

Well it is compared to some. Some long journey North will cost ya £30 itself. How much does it cost to get to East Croydon? (i honestly dont know)

For some the train worked out cheaply but I could only find £31.50 returns on the website I went to.

We're driving up but with a drink or two (Ned drew the short straw) it still mounts up. With the tickets it will be £100 before you can blink

Exactly right Yorks it is a disgrace in all honesty for 90 mins of football, granted its the big one but over £100 for a 50 minute away game is scandalous

For people saying stuff like you would pay £20 so £30 is only ten pounds more. Will you be paying £40 next year then if that is charged, as it is only £10 more. Or £50 the following year, or £60 the year after. There must be a cut of point where you just can't pay that much.

I agree - but what I said was I would take a point next Tuesday as at he moment we have HUGELY different playing budgets.

If Jordan buys selhurst from Uncle Ron it won't come cheap - playing budget will be affected. and if your not in the Prem by then he (Jordan)might just walk.

My point is that in a few years time we will be a stronger club than we are now, same sort of support as your mob - all this is of couse subject to JP - without Falmer we are f***ed

I don't think the money is the issue, if we drew Chelsea away in the cup and the tickets were £45 we'd easily take 5000.
I think some people are scared of the aggro, that will no doubt happen. That's fine, I just wish they wouldn't use the money as the argument

I think it's a combination of the money, the possible aggro, the transport hassle, the weeknight factor and for a few the possibility of having our noses rubbed in it on the pitch again (think how many more we'd take if our league positions were reversed and we had a good chance of turning them over)

AW Stand 1990 £10.00 2005 £30.00. So we are looking at paying £50.00 by 2020 on this rate of inflation.
