Originally posted by tonymikejoe Wake up Steve Parish, you are behaving like a foreign owner and not the devoted fan we know you are. Charging £25 for the Man City FA Cup 4th round tie is a disgrace. Where's the thank-you to the fans? Where is the appreciation for our support? I was so proud of the Palace fans, myself included, who boycotted the Bolton replay and it's £20-a pop price. One of the great night's for the club. Last season the club's income from TV money alone was £72m and that will increase this season. We know the owners are making bank, coaches etc falling into money and the players absolutely coining it in. When are the supporters going to be invited to the party Parish? Have you read the rules regarding the FA cup. The home team can only set a price that the away team agrees to, as the split of the gate is different than Premier games. Why are you having another pop at Parish, he hasn't control of pricing.

Moan U were in the news for stinging Reading fans £45 for their 3rd round match. It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses.

Why are you having another pop at Parish, he hasn't control of pricing. Yeah, he does now. Rules have changed. Would have been interesting to see waht the gate would have been if it had been £12 for an adult and £1 for a kid but probably not a massive difference. 11-12000 maybe, but definitely a missed opportunity to get new younger faces through the turnstile and seal their from afar love for the club.

In defense of membership, it does allows you to buy multiple tkt - assuming it's the same as ST holders. I'm intending on bring 5/6 Selhurst Parks newbies, friends of my son, to the game.

You sound a right barrel of fun and laughs...You boycotted a match , what a hero you turned out to be and what a super Palace fan you are...PLEEEEESE go and support some other team. £25 quid is not too much to pay to see our club play a match in the FA cup especially the opponents being Man City. Will be a great match so do not ruin it and stay away as I am sure Steve Parish will not miss your £25 nor will the other fans attending the match. Just stay away and keep your childish tight attitude to yourself. Supported Palace for over 69 years since the age of 7 and have seen all the ups and downs and will probably see many more ups and downs before I go up to the big football club in the sky.

Originally posted by Kermit8 £5 for under 18's is very good but do they have to be a member to get a ticket? Would scupper any plan in trying to get local teenagers who are Palace into Selhurst for a rare visit if they do. Just need to know a member - each member can buy up to four tickets so if they know a member they can buy the ticket for a fiver. I like FA cup games, probably as I'm from the era where the FA cup was special, prices for FA cup games were the same as league games and you were pissed off if you got knocked out (not pleased so you could concentrate on the league). At £25 for Adults and £5 for U18 it's a bargain - three of us will have a whole afternoon out for £35 - not many other things you can do for a whole afternoon with the kids and only spend £35. Plus we get to try out a different part of the ground each cup game - Upper Holmesdale this time!

TKO I think for the poster.As many have said £5 for families with young children is great,costs a fortune to go to the cinema nowadays so pricing for this match is a pretty good deal.Win or lose worth the price of your seat.

£25 is too much,you only have to go to the on line ticket site,they've hardly sold any. If things go wrong against Everton we'll be lucky to break 10,000.

I suspect that the attendance figure wouldn't change significantly if it was £20. In the end (as others have stated) we need the money to comply with FFP. It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses.

Originally posted by palace99 i think £20 would have been a better price BUT £25 is not unreasonable AND any prices have to be agreed with the away team. So maybe City weren't keen on a lower price. I remember some years back we had to go to the FA to reach a compromise when we played Lincoln as they wanted us to charge more. So whilst Southamption was great last year WE agreed that price too - well done SP. Cup matches on season tickets is a nightmare from a revenue perspective as away team gets 45% (FA get 10%) so very few teams operate this approach. No they don't
