If (that's a big if) the Palace lose the play-off final against Watford at Wembley on Monday 27th May ko 3:00pm..live on Sky, then it won't be because of a lack of support:

Crystal Palace allocated 33,000 tickets.........................sold out :clap:
Watford allocated 34,000 tickets.................................17,000 sold :oops:


There's something wrong there somewhere, ain't there....Palace fans now have to try to get tickets via Watford.

Now ain't that ever so interesting....

Not really cos it's inaccurate, the figure is OVER 17,000 and thus far only full season ticket holders have been allowed to buy them ... so there !

Just a thought - what if we could set up a game between Saracens and Chelsea. Either Footy or Rugger - would be quite a spectacle !

Quite right MoB....The actual figures should be allocated just over 34,000 tickets....sold just over 17,000..I was just rounding thing up a bit and Palace have only sold to season ticket holders as well and members...(talk about splitting 'airs)....

It was very much TIC and :sarcasm:, hence the childish " ... so there ! " at the end but it obviously fell on stoney ground and backfired on me ... my error, sorry about that.

Paul - good luck for final on 27th.

If Watford dont take up all their allocation - would they give Palace a few more? (perhaps at "GetaWay" cheap prices!!)

What a lovely choice to have - shall I stay home & watch on Sky or go to Wembley and wait longer for next cruise!

I know you was just joking, so was I, but I know I don't always joke in the right way....sorry if you thought I was being serious.

Morning Paul - I meant it would be a hard choice for you - not me.

If Shots are playing anywhere in future - I'll be there!!

Well done Bradford City for winning at Wembley yesterday and gaining promotion to Division One....Apparently it's their first promotion in 14 years...Their last one was when they went up to the Premier League.

Today sees the penultimate match of the 2012/13 season. Brentford v Yeovil for a place in the Championship next season....I am really looking forard to that one.

:wave:

PS.....The England v New Zealand Test Match has been the most boring Test Match in the history of boring Test Matches....but not today ...It's getting really good and hopefull will delivery a brilliant finish.

Ten years ago Yeovil were in the Football Conference, next season they will be in the Championship playing against great clubs like Leeds, Derby County, Nottingham Forest and Watford....What a fantastic story.

Well done Yeovil :clap:, did you know that their Manager comes from Watford :lol:

By the way, Paul, you missed Leicester City from your list of great clubs and I'm not going to add it for you.

True class always wins out in the end !!

You could always switch allegiance to Yeovil - your rabble could be playing them in 2014/15 one way or the other anyway !!
