New NE corner seats are now on sale; it's says so on the ticket site. These aren't shown on the stadium plan but are available on the drop down list and via the phone. I would imagine that they'd be quite popular.
Understood, but there's still no other way of the club prioritising that could make it any fairer. I'm sure plenty of people would be pissed off if the they made it a general sale game from day 1. Not to mention the fact that palace fans would end up in the home end.
Possibly. Depends how many tickets get bought before they go on general sale. Should be a total of about 4-5k once you take season tickets, away allocations and segregation zones into account. Don't know how many fans there are with 50+ loyalty points?
