Re: Palace tickets FA Cup

With just over 2 weeks before the game, I want to know exactly when the game is so that I can make arrangements. Saturday or Sunday would be OK, but if it's Friday or Monday it would be more difficult for me. I'll still go, but need to know as soon as possible. I appreciate that the FA, or the BBC or whoever are waiting for the Arsenal/Hull result, but whatever happens there, the winners will be at home to watford so I just don't see why there is a delay in announcing the dates.

It's looking likely the replay will be on the Tuesday before the 6th round fixtures so they won't wait for the replay to decide the date and time of the fixtures.

I wouldn't be surprised if they did wait ! However I reckon we will get lucky and be on the Saturday.

Everton Chelsea and Man U West Ham will surely be the first choice picks for the BBC and BT so will get the Sunday afternoon and Monday night slots for a big TV audience. Then if Arsenal make it through you would expect the BBC to pick Arsenal Watford and they seem to like putting a big team on a Friday night so far this season (Man U, Liverpool etc). Happily we would then be the Saturday game that BT are stuck with, like Bradford last season!

The club has just corrected the Guardian news paper on Twitter that it was in fact Queensley and not Kinglsey crowd surfing with Al-Habsi. This club just gets more cringe by the day!

I think the club would be mad to stick at £10, they could double that and still nearly sell out. £15-£20 seems pretty good and they could probably get away with whatever is standard for a league game these days... £25?

I'll be going if it's possible for me considering it might be a weekday and I'd maybe need a day off for it.

I'm using the cup run as a testing ground for where I might like to move my ST to next season. Was in KK on the stairs against West Brom, that made me feel a bit unsteady, so might try FF or so for Palace. Also testing how close to halfway I can get and still be in decent atmosphere. South side of Y24 seems the limit.

Woodcote Royal No more cheap tickets please!

£20 for adults £10.00 concessions stay away if you don't like it.

If a tenner was fair enough for Walsall, WBA should have been £15.00 and £5.00 more for this one...............anything less for the last 8 of the cup would be taking the p*ss.

I don't care if more would come if we gave seats away, this is still far cheaper than most members pay for league games. Those who claim to "support" the club should be happy to pay a fair price.

STH's then those with high points and finally general sale.

You're talking utter nonsense. Why are you complaining about paying less? Stick your tenner in a charity bucket outside the ground if you're able to chuck cash away willy nilly

Do people believe this is correct? I'm desperate to know as I'm working all weekend including the Friday & Monday and likely to have issues getting time off

Apparently there's a disagreement between the FA, Hull and Arsenal. The FA want the replay to be played on 7th March but neither team wants to play it then which means it may be the same weekend as the other qtr finals. Until that's sorted BT and BBC won't be able to select the matches they want hence the delay.

Ahhh the ticket panic thread.....As only about 15,000 RFC fans went on Saturday, there is room for about another 4000 more to buy a ticket. I'd be amazed if it sold out more than a few days before, especially considering it took us so bloody long to sell out both Bradford games last year AND Palace are hardly the biggest club in the world....plus it will be on TV (if they show all 4 Q/Finals again) . If it does sell out, I'd laugh because if we were in the PL (don't laugh), there is no way Palace at home would sell out. Or if (more likely in the next few years, but probably won't happen) Palace came down, then we'd struggle to break 18k methinks....

If it's priced reasonably then I think it will sell-out.

Oh I think it will sell out too, but only a day or two before the game. I'd be very surprised if once it goes to general sale (as it will obvs be season ticket holders and then GS) it sold out that day. I hardly see people queuing (outside, on the phone or online) for hours to see Palace.
