Is the club defrauding loyal supporters?

Does that mean if we all purchased more pies in the end we might get a better chance of getting more tickets. They will have to make the turnstiles a bit bigger or we could suffer gridlock due to getting stuck through over indulgence.

Thing is, Spiderman is right. Tourists mean money & lots of it. They buy merchandise, they buy drinks, they buy food & they pay top dollar for tickets.

Now, yes ST holders do as well, Members, those that CAN get tickets, do as well, but how many? How many times do we read on here about the crap pies/drinks/burgers etc? I can see, in the not too distant future, where traditional fans will be the minority.

Manure have made all non ST tickets open for all, for this w/e game,1st come 1st served, there will be more of this, quicker than we know. Depressing.

Actually it might mean they’ll be more tickets available because we’ll all be fat fcukers and dying off with heart disease etc 🤣

No it means, unfortunately, the club I have supported for over 60 years are selling their soul, as with every other PL club. I often wonder how SP would react if/when we get relegated? Will it be we are a Community club? I think so. Stevie don’t alienate your core fanbase
 
Still nothing being done about Tourists sitting in the main stand in groups of 2 to 4 paying enormous prices to ticket agencies (not Ticketmaster). Cant work out having paid so much for seats that they bugger off 5 minutes before half time and return 10 minutes into second half!

Hopefully they have enough time for two drinks (money to CPFC) and selfies. Would be good if theatre style seating rules were applied - no access to seats five minutes after "curtain up" - so they would not see second half.

Is CPFC managing to sell all hospitality packages itself?

They want to use the loo, then take selfies, make a video to send back to friends proving that they are at the game, then they realise that by now the queue for the bar snacks is around the block & they are standing at the back of it - then one wants to call his mum to show her they are sitting in the bar at the table with a round of beers, reiterate what they are doing / having such a great time, then they need to use the loo again, hence returning to seats 10 minutes after the game has restarted.

I think their first and last actions during the break should not necessarily be condemned, but on the contrary warmly welcomed. Just thinking about potentially shocking experiences for the people sitting around them....... 🙂😉

Thinking that a compressed cardboard male liquid receiver in Palace colours to take home and put on display could be classified as the ultimate souvenir - preferably unused.
 
There was loads of them in block Y on the Arthur on Saturday. Many of them not sitting in the right seats, had no idea where they were going or wearing half & half scarfs. It took 15 minutes to queue to get in.

The match itself was great but the experience off the pitch makes me hanker for days of old.
