Play-off away game ticket info - includes VERY strict Palace rules

[grummitts gloves]

Well if it's Palace away on the Friday night I know of 7 season ticket holders, including me who can't go.

I can see a major ticket binfest on the horizon.

1150 is a crazy condition for Bolton or Forest.

I actually don't reckon we will sell 2000 for Palace to those who have more than 1150.

That would mean, and assuming every STH done the 3 home cup games, they would have to have done a further 12 away games.

Not if they were also STH last year, and Withdean STH before that. I guess that the club must have done the sums on the numbers with those loyalty points, before setting these thresholds.
The question is whether, especially with Bolton (which is not going to be a cheap trip, particularly if you stay over), they find they don't actually get enough sales with 1150, and end up having to lower the threshold (I hope so, for selfish reasons).

2,000 tickets for Palace away. They best not get the whole stand behind the goal. 2,600 then.

Half of the Withdean points dissapeared. In fact half of all points from last season went, along with the 1000 for last years ST (although that was replaced if you bought one this season).

I am lucky, me and my son have 1460 points, but my buddy who has been to all but 3 away games with us this season (but was not a Withers STH and did not travel to many away last year) only has 1120 points, so his chances look nil of getting a ticket.

Ah - that explains it. Thanks. To be honest it's a pretty fair system - there's some nod to historical support, but you still have to actively support the team each season in the cup/away games beyond your ST to get the points.

Those conditions for the potential Palace game are ridiculous. Absolutely over the top.

 

[The Bun Elephant]

I can't even get one! I'm 30 points off 1150 needed

I have 1140

 

[Dowling93]

I have 1140

It's a ridiculous amount if it was lowered ever so slightly...

Read the link. Palace will only get around 2,000 tickets.

 

[kingcole]

I have 1140

You should get 10 for the home leg - don't despair!

 

[Wozza]

1,260 for the first wave of tickets.

I'm 5 points short

Me too. When do the points for the HOME leg get added?

And would it help to buy a ticket for the Sussex Senior Cup final?

Totally agree. Police state.

This is a good point -- but when do they get credited to our loyalty points total? Given that the away match will be first, isn't there a risk that we won't have those ten points when we come to try to buy the away tickets?

Am I missing something ? The link I'm looking at Play-Off Semi-Final: Away Leg says you need 1,260 loyalty points, not 1,150.

As I'm a bad fan I only have 1,230 and will have to wait. Probably the pub then.

 

[Bozza]

I think, from seeing similar threads, loyalty points for games are not added until the game itself is played.

As I'm a bad fan I only have 1,235, so will not be able to apply until/unless they lower the threshhold. Ahh well, looks like its the pub then.

1,150 points need for the 2nd release date so you will be able to get one

 

[Easy 10]

1,150 points need for the 2nd release date so you will be able to get one

Yep just saw that...but with only around 2k being made available, will there be any ??

 

[soistes]

I'm beginning to wish I'd bought away tickets for a few matches I couldn't actually go to. With hindsight it'd have been worth it, just to get the points

It seems all fans are being treated as bad by the police.

That i'm not sure about, hopefully there will be enough so they decide to release at a lower points level but highly doubt they will do that
