Wake up Steve Parish, you are behaving like a foreign owner and not the devoted fan we know you are.

Charging £25 for the Man City FA Cup 4th round tie is a disgrace.

Where's the thank-you to the fans? Where is the appreciation for our support?

I was so proud of the Palace fans, myself included, who boycotted the Bolton replay and it's £20-a pop price.

One of the great night's for the club.

Last season the club's income from TV money alone was £72m and that will increase this season.

We know the owners are making bank, coaches etc falling into money and the players absolutely coining it in.

When are the supporters going to be invited to the party Parish?

£25 was what we were paying to watch us play grimsby in the upper hol under SJ...not an awful price to watch us play one of the biggest teams in the country.4

if i lived near to selhurst i would be there in a shot for £25.

I can't see a problem with £25 for a game against a top side. I grew up in an era when the FA Cup was a big deal but obviously for many it is now considered to be a cut-price side show.

I don't think I would ever boycott a Palace game,I certainly wouldn't feel proud about it if I did.
But I must agree, and despite all the great deeds performed by Parish and co, little consideration is given to the fans these Premier League days.
Give a little back to the fans we've had a pretty miserable 12 months.
Tickets for Bolton should have been a tenner and the Man City game £15.

exactly...maybe im oldschool but the FA cup is the greatest cup competition around. it costs pretty much that for a league game at league 1 cobblers near me so thats a steal. dont know why people are moaning

The cost against Bolton was a bit steep. I went with my son and got tickets for 3 school mates. We had a great time.

I think we had to charge that as Bolton charged that for the first game. Just hope I can get tickets for the kids I took to the match. £5 a pop for this game compared to £10 v Bolton.

£25 for an adult seems ok when compared to how much it would be for a league match.

A nice gesture would have been to charge adults £15 if they attended the Bolton game to reward the support and the high price they paid.

£25 is a fair price, what's the normal cost for what would be a cat A game?

Shame I'll be doing boring union stuff in Eastbourne that weekend.

Having two "extra" games in January is far from ideal. Money is often tight after Christmas and I think this is one of the biggest factors for low crowds. Throw in a replay and it starts to get very expensive.

However moaning about the price of what would normally be a Cat A game, when it is 40-50% cheaper is silly.

As for being proud of a "boycott" I hadn't even realised that there was one. I must have missed that memo

Unfortunately this is endemic across the PL. Whilst £25 might be appropriate for Citeh, the £20 as you rightly say last night wasn't and £10 would certainly of been nearer the mark.
