You know when no one else has a problem with something other than you? Ever thought it might be you that's really the problem?

I can't be arsed to count again, but only a handful sold yesterday. A fair proportion of the tickets are in the blocks closest to the Palace fans - E1H and S1A and on the Shelf.

559 now if my "scroll down and add up" maths is correct.

There’s going to be a shit load of no-shows whether these last club-held tickets sell or not.

Actions that have been rewarded with a promotion to the best behind-the-goal seats at Selhurst at the expense of genuine fans.

I think Palace fans established that the incidents of which you speak were all perpetrated by undercover Sussex Police officers. Or something like that anyway.

c550 tickets left to sell by the look of it, half of which are in the East block immediately next to the firework-and-knuckleduster crew. Will this one sell out?

Pretty sure this was discussed after the league game where I, and others, wrote about how our own kids felt at the League game. My daughter is 15, nearly 16, and quite a robust young lady - not too much phases her. However, when a firecracker (or whatever the hell they are called) was set off...

Sure he's happy to do so.

So, here in the pub, we all fancy the trip to Middlesbrough should it come to that. As I said at some point earlier: there’s a strange ingredient when it comes to fancying a game.

Albion fan for 40 years, season ticket holder at all of the Goldstone, Gillingham, Withdean and the Amex, I estimate I have have been to well over 1,000 Albion games, fanzine editor, Albion fansite owner and both of my children have intentionally Albion-related names. I'm as modern football as...

There were a handful left last I read. They had to introduce lower and lower loyalty tiers to shift what they did.

They'll both say it will be strong teams, largely of squad players. That's a world of difference from their strongest sides they'd be putting out if this were a league fixture. Hodgson (https://www.cpfc.co.uk/news/2018/january/hodgson-on-cup-tie-team-selection/): "even though the fans may not...

I believe it has to be a named fan who is a member, so you'll need to allocate the ticket to them if they are one. If they are not a member, I guess you could allocate the ticket to any other of your Friends & Family who is not attending the game. I'm not advocating anyone should do this...

1901ers will be announced as present, I imagine, under the tickets sold / pretendance thing.

Didn't we get to something like: Albion ticket sales 12k + 1901 3k + Palace 2k = 17k

No, I want to watch a game where both clubs and managers were trying their damnedest to win, and selected their full strength side to try and do just that. That would be treating the rivalry with the reverence it deserves. It would mean winning (and losing for that matter) counted for something...

Yes, they are, in that as a matter of course they wouldn't make Chris Hughton's first choice starting XI.

Indeed. I contacted my group this afternoon asking if anyone fancied going now, but none do. So I'm not either.

There's a good 10,000 or so season ticket holders/points harvesters who might let you buy a ticket using their account.
