Well there is a wider problem with tickets going on resale at ridiculous amounts, but it's such a wider problem that there should be things in place to stop this, especially as we're using Ticketmaster. For some reason it's worse this season now we're using them, as tickets are pretty much impossible to get with the Gold Membership and I hardly think it's our sparkling, champagne football that is drawing the crowds in.
Specifically though the club shouldn't be flogging these if they know there's a problem and giving people refunds because they can't get tickets, is just proving that they're effectively useless.
If you look at this link:
2024/25 Gold Membership - Crystal Palace F.C.
The main problem is this:
Match tickets are expected to be in record demand this season, so make sure you are first in line to secure the best available seats at Selhurst to watch the lads in action. Gold Members enjoy exclusive 72-hour ticket access for home games, including the very biggest clashes against Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool, and Brighton & Hove Albion.
As that's not what's happening at all. If the Gold Membership didn't include this, then it would be more accurate what they're flogging.
It's not the most important thing in the world right now, but I can't abide it when people flog stuff on promises they can't keep and then shrug their shoulders with a "dunno mate" when challenged about it.
Bit like Franca's Ballon d'Or clause really.
