For those of you who can't get enough of Palace and are considering buying tickets for the Ipswich game, please note that kick-off is at the unheard of time (these days anyway) of 7:30pm.

I thought I would just mention this in case you had calculated you just had enough time to leave work, travel, and get to the ground in time for an 8pm or 7:45 start, in which case you might miss Ipswich taking a shock lead in the 5th minute.

Yes, I for one am very pleased as I have to get back down to near the south coast after the game.

I love the 7.30 kick off,when i were a lad that was the standard evening start time.
Though this is a purely selfish point of view as I don't have to bother about rushing to the match from a work place,and I don't have very far to travel.
But also it's good for the younger kids who may not have been able to attend the later kick offs .

This is good news for me. I get rather frightened walking through South London in the dark because I've heard it can get proppa nawty at times and frankly I am a wet lettuce.
