What happens when the 16 rows of people say we want to stay in our seats and sing, do we move down to the next 16 rows and so on, and who dictates who is allowed into the singing section ??

This is the million dollar question. Abd I don't think the club have any idea....

Trouble is we cannot keep our seats, see e mails sent to all the 400 E seats affected .

As you know we have announced a new singing area in the Holmesdale lower tier. In order to facilitate this, we are moving the most vocal group of supporters into the rear of Block E and as such your season ticket, that we know you have held for a long time will not be available to renew for next season.
Whilst we believe this will be a great benefit to the atmosphere and is supported by the vast majority of fans, I completely understand that this is probably very upsetting and disruptive to you, as one of our most loyal and longstanding supporters.
With that in mind we have put together a package of benefits for the 19/20 season that we really do hope will make this transition as painless as possible.
· You will receive a 2-week priority window, (expected to begin on the 22nd of April 2019) to choose any of the seats released after the seat retention deadline. Typically, this would give us enough good seats in all areas of the ground to meet your requirements for the coming season and as long as your new season ticket is purchased before the 31st May 2019 you will receive a 50% discount of the Early Bird price of that season ticket.

· Secondly, we are going to award you 1500 loyalty points so you will be at the front of the queue for away and other desirable tickets.
· Finally, you will be enrolled as a Gold Member free of charge for the 19/20 season. It will give you 48-hour ticket access for additional home tickets, digital matchday programmes for home matches emailed to you 24-hours before kick-off, access to live pre-season friendly games on the official club app and Palace TV, 10% discount in the club shop and online store, and a gift pack. Plus, you’ll get a bonus 200 loyalty points, taking you to 1700 loyalty points as part of this offer.
We do hope that in time you will see that the sacrifice you are making is for the benefit of everyone, this will only enhance the atmosphere and make the club we all love stronger over time.
As the time when season tickets go on sale approaches you will be contacted with the procedure on how to purchase your new season ticket, however in the meantime if you have any questions please email customer.service@cpfc.co.uk or call us on 0208 768 6000
Thank you for your understanding and for your tremendous support, we know this is a big upheaval but on balance we feel it’s something that will prove to be positive for everyone in the long run.

You'd probably need to apply for an Equity Card or sign up to a record label?

Always thought there was something queer about the HF.

is a very good deal for people moving from a s*** view behind the goal to a better season ticket.

you are lucky to get it cheaper & the other added bonuses

The top rows in E block (the ones for the HF) are excellent seats.
The view is not obstructed.
You are under cover if it rains
You are close to the beer stalls and toilets for half-time
You are close to the exit on the final whistle.
Facilities in the LH are only surpassed by the upper tier.

Only my opinion, but having been all over the ground, these are the bestest seats. Which is why the HF selected them

and a 25 quid Nandos voucher and 20% off when you spend over 200 quid in Bird Chicken restaurants.

As has been said, what happens if you reply and say you would like to be in the singing section so no need to move?

I love that phrase as it implies that the so called sacrifice is voluntary

Its not voluntary, but a better deal than others to be announced this week. Be positive, and enjoy the choice of our new seats. COYP!

And why I put my sticker on mine before the Holmesdale was completely finished. Without doubt finest seats in the house
