Hi. Anyone know anything about this or have one?

Contacted the club and they say that is not available at the moment and wasn't last season either. They say there'll be an announcement in the summer...

How much was it previously and what do you get for it?

Cheers.

Away season tickets are quite common in the Premier League, apparently.

I do recall it. From memory it was free but you were sold a ticket(s) for every away game automatically so saved you the effort of getting one for each match.

It was a couple of seasons back, not sure how many took it or how it fitted in with loyalty points and whether you needed to have a home season ticket too

Now you mention it, it rings a bell. I don't think the scheme lasted for more than a season or two though.

I'm just interested as I want to buy one and sell on tickets for individual games at hugely inflated prices to hooligans so I can fund my season ticket at Palace.

I think it stopped due to some issues in that the club couldn't automatically take the money from payment cards so platinum holders had to ring club the day before on sale dates to secure their away ticket

Thanks for the info.

Hopefully they'll release a new system for this so I can jump the que and get my disloyal Hooli mates to more games!

Eagles!

Comes with some perfectly reasonable T&Cs that LOYAL fans will have no issues with.....

-must show ID at every game, naturally
-must sign in and out of each game with the Platinum Host who will be present (easily spotted in BHA corporate mustard sweater)
-absolutely no leaving before applauding the players off the pitch
-must use 'stand or fall' when singing GOSBTS

Yes, I knew two people who were platinum members. They went to every home and away match. Being members meant their away tickets were sent automatically on release.
I think there were 70 members in total.

If we go up I can see a couple of hundred away season ticket holders.
