No points awarded for away games before 2003 (I think) or for the past 8 or 9 years and maximum 5 year ST recognition when points were introduced.

Yes that makes sense as we had children in 92 and 94 and a couple of years later my away games came to a sudden stop barring the odd one here and there when I managed to get hold of a spare and so by the time they were around 6/7 yrs of age we got them season tickets and have had them since. So when Platinum came in it was just more expense on top for 4 tickets and we couldnt manage it at the time and so got left behind big style.

You had to keep your away ticket stubs for the 1998-99 season. I think points were introduced the year after.

That sounds like a load of bollocks to me.

Selhurst Park has a capacity of 25,486.

So they have sold their 30,000 plus allocation with some AWAY season ticket holders not getting one?

I call bullshit!

So if they have a maximum of just under 3000 away season ticket holders,there’s no way that they havnt got a final ticket out of 30000,even more so if their capacity is under 30000

3000 away STH and they still send the top tier back every year, despite being a very live opponent for us

I got mine at the same time and was about to panic buy a £125 like you. Turns out it was just our shit website, I took the first £50 when it came available but went back on later out of interest and there was loads more selection, I just think the website couldn't handle so many people logging in at 1pm

I was late logging on - logged on at 14:30 - cos I was busy and thought that there would be plenty of £50 or at least £75 tickets left.

Big mistake but I really didn’t realise that OSC members were given tickets over season ticket holders.

If we get there again I’m not gonna bother sweating it out waiting for the right to buy windows to open - I’ll just request one from my OSC and jump the queue.

It’s fucking ridiculous that this is club policy. Why be a fucking season ticket holder and queue when you can bypass it all via your OSC? I don’t know why they have these fucking windows at all - it’s not ensuring fairness to loyal supporters who attend games when you can put 2 fingers up at it and choose an alternative route.

Except the away season tickets at Palace take priority over points.

Yes our away season ticket holders, together with season ticket+ holders, season ticket and gold members with over 8500 loyalty points were in Phase 1. The big problem was Phase 2 where they did not give season ticket holders preference over gold members ( no minimum points required). Therefore people who purchased a gold membership after 1/4 final were in same phase as season ticket holders. It also seems that out of our allocation of 30k or just over , 5000 have been kept back for sponsors, players families, club employees. There are some pretty pissed off fans. Luckily I was in Phase 1 so basically had my pick of sections.
