Cup Final Ticket Phases

Goal Machine said:
I think they have a right to (I'm a Gold Member, btw). They pay more money and attend more games. It's not fair that a ST holder for 30 years who has just under 8,500 points is in same phase as part time Joe who bought a gold membership at the start of the season so he could buy a ticket for the match against Man City and Liverpool.

I agree that all ST holders will get a ticket, but there will be a squabble over the best seats in the house - which on merit should be offered up to the more dedicated fans first. That's the whole point of having a loyalty system in the first place.

It could have been organised in a fairer way by adding more phases. This type of scenario always causes anxiety as some are desperate for a ticket. A bit of common sense from the club would have helped.

Correct ✔️.

The constant moaning of season ticket holders who want to feel special above gold members is a total joke. We've turned into a group of squabbling toddlers, do you honestly think we have more than 30,000 season ticket holders and gold members? There is absolutely no way any of them will miss out unless they leave it late.

Grow up a bit and wait your turn to get on the ticket portal, the silly thing would crash if everyone was allowed on it at once.

Obviously they should be above gold members.
Some of the "squabbling toddlers" have had season tickets from when Palace played in the old 3rd Division, and attended league matches when attendances were around 7,000 in Division 2.
Of course they should have a measure of priority over fair weather fans.
 
Could anyone upload a screenshot of seats available at this moment, please. Hoping to grab tomorrow a lower tier seat in the same block as semis 🤞
Much appreciated

If they've been that much they will have well over 8500 points, if not then they need to up their game

Thats not that actually true. Wind your neck in! Supported and with season tickets for 47 years here, but currently only 3000+ points. Im good for a ticket but not having your incorrect interpretation going unchallenged! Well before the loyalty scheme we had Palace Lifeline Scheme which gave money to the club but you didnt receive loyalty points! I sent my pocket money to Ron Noades in the 80s and didnt receive any loyalty points. Those of us who spent 2 weeks cleaning the seats in 2010 didnt receive loyalty point. So f*** right off!

Then they haven't held the season tocket long enough, get your facts right before you tell people to wind their neck in. You don't just get given random points, I have 4500 and had a season ticket for 5 years....you're telling me people who've held them for 47 have 3000.....give yourself a break. 500 points for each season ticket.

Yes the current crtieria is from the last few years, but dont fool yourself by saying long standing fans before 2010 are to be obliterated. I have 3200 points attended between 7-10 games the past few years for economic reasons. Dont be so all high high and mighty loser!
 
My take on the pecking order is that:
Gold / international members have been dealt a difficult scenario this season (in particular) with match day ticket availability, very few realistic opportunities to get hold of tickets once season tickets / away support / third party sales etc etc have been taken into consideration - So maybe this is a way of compensating those members / that situation a bit -

If the club want to promote future gold / international members & season ticket + options then this is a good way to do so & will for sure encourage some people to seriously consider what they sign up for next season - This may be some of the reason that 25 / 26 season ticket / membership guidelines have not yet been published with the feeling that this cup ticket initiative will drive sales of these options upwards.

Someone else asked how many gold / international memberships were sold - I seem to remember 12,500 was the number mentioned on a previous stream about ticket sales - (I could be wrong)

Historically earnt points totals aren't a current / future revenue stream, they are a measure of attendance / support that enables the club to measure / recognise that level of support & reward them accordingly, I think in this instance that's where the clubs measure of rewarding those loyal fans ( high points totals) has become a bit misaligned with how the fans see it.

More insults, baby behavior. The only one here being high and mighty is you, grumpy old man. You have 3200, so don't try tell me you deserve a ticket over others who have more.

What delusional world? A season ticket is 500 points, go look it up for yourself rather than insult people. Childish behavior and can't get your own facts right. 3000 points? You aren't as loyal as you tell us so grow up a little.

Totally wrong, the loyalty scheme is pretty recent. I have better things to do than argue with you thats for sure!

I dont need to tell anyone about deserving a ticket, Ill be getting mine tomorrow. Members and gold members are also fans. Our ground only holds 22,000 for home fans remember.
