You just can't beat CB's ability to find a negative side to absolutely anything, can you? Even when there really is nothing to moan about.

You really are a ray of sunshine.

Another waste of money. Everyone who wants a ticket for Palace will get one. There is no need to commit to three of the most bollocks matches of the season at the same time.

Word, they are some truely shit fixtures.

You reckon? Both clubs could be in the hunt for play off places and the three points could make a huge difference to the season for both teams, you don't think it'd sell out then?

Not too sure about that, especially if we're both at the business end of the table come that fixture. This is what a 31k crowd looks like Glenn Murray.

I don't see the problem really.

Those that want to buy this product will, and those that don't want to won't.

Not everyone judges the attractiveness of fixtures in the same way.

For some, who value a home win over watching a quality opposition, Peterborough / Burnley / Bristol City / Palace represents a very decent set of fixtures.

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

. That's a really poor deal when you consider there is NO financial saving.

The no financial saving is completely wank on these multi-game packages I agree.

 

[hans kraay fan club]

I really cannot believe there is anyone who has picked out Bristol City at home on a Tuesday night in November as a great game to be at because we have a chance of winning.

Why not? Did you enjoy the corresponding fixture last year?

Fair enough, but apart from Palace I do not imagine to much of an atmosphere at those games, all be it Burnley last season was possibley the best bar the Opening game.

Plus you will not struggle to get a ticket for the most of these games anyway, so whats really the incentive? I am in agreement with TBC the people who really want a ticket for Palace will get one, just as long as they are organised.

It will sell out. I just meant it will take enough time to sell out to ensure everybody who acts relatively quickly will get a ticket without any problems. I also think the fact we have 22,000 STHs means there will be very few people who actually require a ticket for Palace. Just look at our attendances so far this season, we're only selling about 2,500 match-by-match tickets for each game.

Then you have to consider that Burnley has to be one of the three least attractive games of the season and the other two are mediocre/poor opposition on Tuesday nights. That's a really poor deal when you consider there is NO financial saving.

But, this is about guaranteeing revenue which should be welcomed. From the clubs perspective, they have thrown the carrot of guaranteeing a Palace ticket in return for a 'casual' agreeing to lay out in advance for three more fixtures.

I take onboard about attendances to date, but come March, people could be fighting each other to get hold of a Palace ticket, if we are on fire.

Maybe the club could throw a sweetener into these full price deals like offering a complimentary programme or a food item.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Still, if by having these packages available we can get closer to selling games out than if we didn't have them it's all worth it eh?

I mean they must have done some research into whether they work, or do you think they went in blind?

To be fair, I am in agreement too, that as a product, this package is fairly pointless. Where I differ is that, I don't see a reason to MOAN about it - if nobody wants to buy it, nobody will, and the world of BHA will keep turning either way.

Not really. Bristol City were shit, just as most of the football at The Amex this season has been. I don't go to watch walkovers, I want the other team to give us a game. Barnsley and Sheffield Wednesday this season were just appalling and really did not justify 25,000 people turning up to watch them..

That's fine. Diff'rent strokes and all that. For plenty of other people though, the likes of the Sheffield Wednesday game, is EXACTLY what they want to see. I for one would be delighted, if every home game was like that one.
