I did it years ago and didn't like it. It may have improved for all I know. In general at Selhurst - best atmosphere is the Holmesdale or Arthur. Don't exactly expect 'premium' at all though in these - you're lucky to get to the loo without getting crushed and wading through piss. Forget about a drink at half time too. Go about 10-15 minutes before half time ( we're usually behind by then) and you can get a pie and a drink.

Last time I did this was Brentford game last season, August 21 I think it was.

I booked the 2010 Club which was the most expensive option. We used our Covid refunded season ticket money. Since then I believe that a new catering head has come in.

To summarise ;

You are seated in the ' Directors Box ' seats. Decent enough view, but if it's atmosphere you want, you won't find much here. I was seated next to Brentford fans that were on a corporate jolly. ( to be fair, they were fine ).

I'd been to the 2010 before, so knew what to expect - or so I thought. First up they showed us to a table that I had before but then moved us to a different room and sat the 4 of us underneath a big tv - we couldn't hear ourselves think ! I got them to turn the sound down after they eventually found the remote.

Service was Amateur Hour. Beers were flat. They failed to provide a vegetarian option for the main meal. They ran out of time to serve dessert, which is when I ran out of patience. I complained and was told that a bottle of champagne would be waiting for us at half time as compensation. We enjoyed that, and at full time were surprised to see another one waiting for us - which I think was another mistake on their part.

Overall, it wasn't worth the money at close to ( I think ) £350 per person.

I sent in a written complaint / account of our day and received an apology and the offer of 20% of our next booking. I haven't taken them up on that.

As an aside, I had a quick chat with John Textor that day. He struck me as reasonably knowledgeable about football.
