I just got one from the Palace waiting list, I had 9,800 points. Allocated on loyalty points I believe:).
I think you'll be ok. My mate Bob has got into every Euro away game so far with very few loyalty points, tickets via home clubs.
Frustrating. Thinking they are selling home tickets to personal callers and it might sell out. Certainly looked full when they played West Ham in March 23' from pictures I've seen. By previous logic they should put any unsold up on Monday or Tuesday.
