Every time I've done Fulham away, I've really enjoyed doing the boozy Palace party boat before the game. Does anyone know of any going ahead this year? I'd love to book 3X tickets! The first time I went on one of these, they were always clearly organised on a BBS thread, but in the last few times I've gone, they all seem to be planned via very specific niche Palace facebook groups which I don't end up coming across until it is too late! For example; this year I found out after securing my matchday tickets that a facebook page called "the eagles have landed (CPFC)" have been planning a boat party for Fulham away via the page admin (a chap called Grant Saunders) since December! By the time the match tickets went on sale, the boat party was already sold out. Last year I caught wind of a couple of other boat parties via conversations with mates that were all planned via Facebook again - and all sold out again! The day before the game I caught wind of one being run on Facebook by Danny Foley that still had space and managed to secure tickets for the boat last minute! Unfortunately he's advised that he's not doing it again this year. It's proving equally difficult again this year to identify who is running the boats and where/how to book on/even hear about them! It's a real shame as I know other friends with match tickets also unable to identify who is running a boat party. I'm sure there are enough others in a similar positions to easily fill a boat (or several!), especially as a lot of people booked on don't seem to have matchday tickets for the game itself.
We'll be SOOOO disappointed if we end missing out on our traditional pre game boat party as part of the day out despite having match tickets!

There is a boat it is sold out & a hefty waiting list. Also Putney Pier is closed so people will have to do the last bit via bus/underground.
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

AKA Fatboynotsoslim back in the day on here There are definitely boat trips happening, I’ve seen them being discussed on Twitter. But not being great with boats and water I’ll be letting the train take the strain

Guessing the Putney pier closure is why there seems to be even less planned this year!
