Fairest way for tickets?

Lucky I bought myself and my boy a season ticket yesterday! I was at the semi anyway, but probs wouldn't have got a ticket as don't have many loyalty point but they've added my ST points. So should be able to get 2 tickets!

There's never a perfect way to do it!

Following the outcry over Final tickets the club has made tickets available to those attending the box office with the following.

Both great great grand parents and Malcom Alison's fedora

A signed photograph of Alan Mullery meeting the Pope

A piece of moon rock and Andy Johnsons magic hat.

The original receipt from the Little Chef, on the way back from Villa Park in 1990.

A happy picture of Ron Noades and a swiftly poured pint of fine ale from the Holmesdale bar.

Why aren't members (gold) allowed to renew for next season like new season ticket holders are now, to get a few extra points to allow them to move up a phase? Due to work on some Saturdays it is not economical for me to buy a season ticket, but I buy tickets as and when I can attend, so it costs me a lot anyway. However, got membership to show support in other way. Will probably get a ticket anyway, but would just like to be in with my brother who has a season ticket.

If you're in an earlier phase and want to be with someone in a later phase, here's an idea....

Buy a ticket in the top tier as these ones go last.

I think the semi phasing was right apart from too many phases. Take 1 or 2 out. They know how many we get and how many qualify in the 1st 28,000 so I don't see why they don't. The ones with the most loyalty points get 1st choice on touchline and singing sections and then the next phases much wider.

It sounds like a fantastic investment for a tout to buy a ST if you really can get 500 points by buying before May 3. Double your money on the final ticket, Arsenal, Spurs, Liverpool and Man U in the league. Please Palace, don't allow that.

I would like Palace to record attendance - under 80% for first ten matches in the season gives invitation to visit the box office for re-validation of season ticket. Like many, I was unhappy when a gentleman outside Wembley Park station asked if I needed him to help me get into the Stadium.

It may be that Palace are perceived as not watching their supporters carefully enough; our support had to pay £2.50 to a ticket agency for each ticket for the semi final.

To be honest I can't see them changing it from the way they did the semi final allocation. Personally I think anyone who went to the semi final should get bonus loyalty points.

Anyone who went to all of the FA Cup games should be first priority. Then pretty much the order they established.

I won't get a ticket, unless by some miracle there are tickets left in the final phase. But that's fair enough, I only made it to one game this season, and realising I could probably only make maybe half the home games at best, didn't renew my season ticket.

Sad, but them's the breaks. I'd love to be there on Final day, but there are people who's support over the season has been better displayed (metrically speaking).

Of course there is always the hope of a spare or secondary market ticket. But at 500 plus a pop, its not likely.

Can your brother use your reference number when buying a ticket. I didn't think to try this, but on hindsight, if someone was buying say 10 tickets and most of those were season ticket holders, I reckon there would be a chance of getting away with a less than qualifying reference in there (provided you went through the phone line, rather than online).

There are still tickets available in blocks 544-548 (£67) and 541 - 547 (£47). Don't know how many though.
