Saint_clark Posted 24 September, 2011 Posted 24 September, 2011 Agreed. Win this then get a big team in the QF in which we lose then concentrate on the league and staying in the top 6. Forgive my confusion, but I do not understand this thinking in the slightest. If you want us to concentrate on the league then surely losing to Palace is the best bet? Personally I want to see the easiest tie available should we go through, as we do have an outside chance of winning the thing for once.
gaz Posted 24 September, 2011 Posted 24 September, 2011 Other than Man Utd, that's all the Prem teams drawn against each other. I can't think of a single reason why this is interesting, so it probably isn't. How about this, all the bigger PL clubs knocking each other out, meaning more chance of an NPC side making the final.
gjphilsaint Posted 24 September, 2011 Posted 24 September, 2011 well you know what happens when we get drawn against Palace in a Cup? Should we play it at Stamford Bridge?
scotty Posted 24 September, 2011 Posted 24 September, 2011 Aldershot or Arsenal away, or if I'm being uber-selfish/lazy, Palace away. You selfish, lazy c*nt
Ewell Posted 27 September, 2011 Posted 27 September, 2011 Ticket dretails up on the Palace site so looks like £15 which is decent value. http://www.cpfc.co.uk/page/News/0,,10323~2464015,00.html
JRM Posted 27 September, 2011 Posted 27 September, 2011 Ticket dretails up on the Palace site so looks like £15 which is decent value. http://www.cpfc.co.uk/page/News/0,,10323~2464015,00.html Not too bad £15 in advance, £20 on the day a bit steep, we should have decent numbers though at that price. it says away fans get blocks V and W in the Arthur Wait stand so will be stuck down towards the corner.
Nexstar Posted 27 September, 2011 Posted 27 September, 2011 £10 for me and a new ground, lovely stuff.
sfc4prem Posted 27 September, 2011 Posted 27 September, 2011 So the same price as the tickets against Preston at SMS, fair enough. Might pop up for this one.
oldsarum Posted 27 September, 2011 Posted 27 September, 2011 Not too bad £15 in advance, £20 on the day a bit steep, we should have decent numbers though at that price. it says away fans get blocks V and W in the Arthur Wait stand so will be stuck down towards the corner. On halfway line according to this plan of the ground http://sl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slika:Selhurst_Park.JPG
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 27 September, 2011 Posted 27 September, 2011 Just booked train up on the Tuesday and back on the Wednesday morning- £2.50 return
JRM Posted 27 September, 2011 Posted 27 September, 2011 On halfway line according to this plan of the ground http://sl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slika:Selhurst_Park.JPG yeah nice one, sure we can spread out in the stand.
dune Posted 27 September, 2011 Posted 27 September, 2011 Nice to see CPFC have priced this game to attract a decent crowd.
Saint-scooby Posted 27 September, 2011 Posted 27 September, 2011 Its half term, so I guess it will be a well attended away game. Messy time......!
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 28 September, 2011 Posted 28 September, 2011 Anyone planning to stay the night, I suggest megatrain for cheap deals.
thesaint78 Posted 18 October, 2011 Posted 18 October, 2011 http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10280~2472267,00.html Anyone know how tickets are selling for this one? General Sale starts on Tuesday 19th ? according to the OS. I expect they mean tomorrow so they can get today's game sorted first
disconnect Posted 18 October, 2011 Posted 18 October, 2011 I bought my tickets today on general sale. Should be a good one! Palace have got a decent young team - some good players like Zaha, Clyne, Williams. Will be interesting to see what team we put out and how we perform against a team with quite a lot of pace in midfield / attack.
Bucks Saint Posted 18 October, 2011 Posted 18 October, 2011 Got mine online today. £15 (plus ticket tax) = good value, night games there usually very decent.
ManorHouseSaint Posted 18 October, 2011 Posted 18 October, 2011 Just got 5 tickets for me and 4 other fellow London Saints fans!...COYRs!
eelpie Posted 18 October, 2011 Posted 18 October, 2011 I expect to see Saints beat Palarse a comfortable 1-2. I always enjoy going to Selhurst Park. Then lets get the Arse at home so we can sing "You should have stayed at Saints!" to Theo and Oxo.
Saint-scooby Posted 18 October, 2011 Posted 18 October, 2011 Got my 3 this morning, my lads first London away game..
smarmy Posted 18 October, 2011 Posted 18 October, 2011 I got three tickets today. My first game of the season! Hey, ManorHouseSaint, I live round the corner from you.
skintsaint Posted 19 October, 2011 Posted 19 October, 2011 Palarse on a bit of a good run at the minute...Will be a close game.
thesaint78 Posted 19 October, 2011 Posted 19 October, 2011 Just called up for tickets for this one to be told the initial allocation had sold out and we were now going back to Palace to ask for more tickets
um pahars Posted 19 October, 2011 Posted 19 October, 2011 As it's half term I might take a trip up, but I would have no problem if we played a ressie team up there and focus on the League. Games are thick and fast and I think we need to be cautious about player fatigue, unnecessary injuries and cautions.
JRM Posted 19 October, 2011 Posted 19 October, 2011 Just called up for tickets for this one to be told the initial allocation had sold out and we were now going back to Palace to ask for more tickets stuff like this always makes me laugh for the sheer stupid inefficiency of it all, the "initial allocation" was always going to be too small, and clearly we can have thousands of tickets if we want as they just keep opening more blocks in that stand, so why did they wait to sell all of the tickets before going back for some more? i reckon quite a few will just pay on the night for this one 1109 already sold, should be a decent following up there.
MatthewStiles Posted 19 October, 2011 Posted 19 October, 2011 Palace's last League Cup against Boro was attended by 5,448 so I would say it's a safe bet that we'll get more tickets.
vince Posted 20 October, 2011 Posted 20 October, 2011 Just phoned up for a ticket for this and was told the next allocation has been delayed in the post and they are expecting then in after 5pm.
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 21 October, 2011 Posted 21 October, 2011 More tickets on sale now, over 1500 sold already, which is pretty good going. http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10280~2488600,00.html
notnowcato Posted 21 October, 2011 Posted 21 October, 2011 An evening game to go and enjoy as the result doesn't really matter. Come On You Ressies
September Saint Posted 21 October, 2011 Posted 21 October, 2011 stuff like this always makes me laugh for the sheer stupid inefficiency of it all, the "initial allocation" was always going to be too small, and clearly we can have thousands of tickets if we want as they just keep opening more blocks in that stand, so why did they wait to sell all of the tickets before going back for some more? i reckon quite a few will just pay on the night for this one 1109 already sold, should be a decent following up there. Why do the Club/Ticket Office seem obsessed with initially only releasing tickets to ST's and then only 1 ticket per ST I can understand the logic with popular games but it's obvious that many games will either not sell out or tickets will be available for long enough for the "keenies" to get theirs. Whilst queueing for mine I was reading all the changes to ticket sales/refunds/moving etc. It seems that a lot of people are like me and now buy from the office rather than pay the extra £3.
