Seat Counters 25/26

Can’t complain with the numbers for palace game. Just glad next year this same situation tickets will be cheaper, which they should have been soon as it was rescheduled 1. Late notice 2. Midweek game
 
Am I right in thinking we received an additional allocation of Cup Final tickets?
So we sold our initial 28k?

Why they don't just make these available to members is an absolute mysery. They've sold about 20 tickets in 2 days and there must be thousands of members who haven't been given a chance and have just given up.

I think they might want it to sell out before it goes to members, so that next season more people decide to go to the FA Cup rounds or join the FA Cup scheme as they'll be thinking it improves their chance at Final tickets.

Yeah, you've hit the nail on the head. A lot of their decision making process is to reward spend in other areas for obvious reasons.
 
Probably not worth the hassle of thousands of members fighting over 30 tickets.
Their rationale will be, we opened it up to members who were on the cup scheme and members who have attended 1 or 2 cup matches.
 
I get the issues around pricing and short notice, but the fact is that the Palace game would have sold out almost immediately if the West Ham goal against Arsenal had not been ruled out. We have a hardcore support of between 30-40k, but the rest are fair-weather fans and I really cannot see the logic behind the new third tier on the north stand. Perhaps the lack of tourists will make a difference tomorrow and improves the atmosphere.

The logic behind the new stand is that the club want to grow all parts of the fanbase.

It's the north stand so if you're gonna talk shite at least get your fuckin facts right
 
Can our excellent Seat Counters do one (a Seat Count, not do one!) on the FA youth cup final - pretty poor show if we cannot fill the academy stadium to support our youth team, maybe if the Seat Counters can do their magic (now the FA cup final is basically sold out) it may bring this to the attention of more fans?
