Pardew wants Palace fans to leave their sofa beds

[spanish flair]

Pardew wants Palace fans to leave their sofa beds and caravans, to come and support the team in their London derby at West Ham as tickets remain unsold.
Yet again proving them to be the best fans in the world.

He does have a very valid point about ticket prices.

£44 to go to West Ham is bloody scandalous.

Good for them !
44 quid is a p~ss take

 

[CorgiRegisteredFriend]

That is rather expensive.

They could be worse and you have to remember the small travel costs involved.

We charge up to £42 + booking fee per game for a Cat a game and that is for Championship.

 

[Vegas Seagull]

In effect, the Palace fans are saying they are a small club and deserve the lowest category pricing. Tinpot and they know it

 

[nwgull]

Add in travel and I'm sure it costs our fans more to go and watch Charton, Brentford and Fulham (and QPR last year) - no problem selling out there.

We charge away fans 30 quid for matches at Amex, compared to the 44 quid West ham want from away fans.

Price of playing in the Premier.

Correct. But it's a ridiculous price.

Agreed, just making a like for like comparison.

Our £30 includes travel voucher too.

 

[El Presidente]

It's not as bad as it seems though, as West Ham are charging concessions £25, and given that 98% of Palace are kids or on benefits........

Our £30 includes travel voucher too.

We do charge that for a Cat B game and that is the price for Derby fans, but Norwich and Bournemouth are Cat A games and their fans will pay more.

 

[Stat Brother]

Still at least the prices will come tumbling down once the new multi billion pound Sky deal comes into effect.

Over £1,000 to buy the lowest priced season ticket at Arsenal!?! That's ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous, that's more than last year's CHAMPIONS Manchester City's HIGHEST priced season ticket, and only £236 less than this season's league leaders Chelsea's HIGHEST priced season ticket.
Arsenal fans are having the piss taken out of them, it's not like they're one of the best teams in the world anymore, it really puts it into context when Bayern Munich and Barcelona's cheapest season tickets are below £200 pounds.

Palace fans are paying this for the home game against QPR .

Prices
Adult--Concessions--Juniors (under-18s)
Main Stand £45.00- £30.00- £22.50
Lower Holmesdale £40.00- £26.00- £20.00
Upper Holmesdale £40.00- £26.00- £20.00
Arthur Wait £40.00- £26.00- £20.00
Whitehorse Family £35.00- £24.00- £17.50
Gallery £45.00- £30.00- N/A

Interestingly they are charging QPR fans £40 so just £4 less than West Ham are charging them. They must have thrown more than £4 in coins onto the pitch recently.

QPR charged us £45 for the game in December at their place. They limit away fans to 1800 these days so they can get away with pricing the tickets high as they know 1800 supporters will pay it whoever is playing them. £45 for that shit hole is way too much, Probably the only away end that is worse than Selhurst in the PL.

I think CPFC have got it wrong with the pricing for the QPR home game, It should have been a lower category.

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

Is it because the Always Ultras are campaigning for lower ticket prices ? Would they have to rename their group as the Tenner Lads ?

To be fair to Palace, I would have thought any London derby would be a Cat A game
