Sorry to hear your uncle can't make it but ask him, as a "die hard Palace fan" what he thinks of a Man U supporter having a ticket in the Palace end at only our 2nd final in 111 years. Did you really expect to come onto a Palace site and not have some that might think it a bit off! I very much doubt there is a "die hard Palace fan" with a ticket in the Manure end for your proposed swap. (and if I'm wrong, the acquisition of said ticket would make an interesting post elsewhere)
Manure end haha grow up fella if I have to enjoy the game with you guys then so be it I have nothing against you! May the best team win enjoy your final

And that queue for the tube afterwards is a bugger. I'm only trying to help you

Hi there...since posting that I have two tickets available ...I have had over 250 requests for the them. I am completely overwhelmed by the response and touching stories. I am not looking to make money from fellow Palace fans....it just does not seem right to me. To be honest, it Is a special occasion and would love to bring a smile to two fellow fans.,. However, any suggestions as to how I can make this as fair as possible would be much appreciated. The only thing I can think of is to put everyone's name in a hat and select this way. Many thanks.....

Sounds a fair way to me, I think asking for a pic of ex amount of away tickets or something along these lines would be fair as people who have got 2 tickets from a friends/family membership all season doing away days stood no chance

Haha bit of banter that's what I like all the best lads may the best team win It's jolly nice of you to so kindly offer to swap. Unfortunately you are not the first United fan on here who has managed to obtain a Palace end ticket and wants to swap but this doesn't seem to have happened the other way round? As there are many loyal Palace fans who would love to attend but can't as a decent football supporter you will understand the annoyance. We are a decent crowd but will,obviously report any lairy fans in our end like we had against Liverpool 2 years ago. So if you do decide to attend in place of loyal Palace fans don't wear colours or cheer as you will be reported. If you sit in silence I am sure you will fine. If you cannot swap why not sell at a reasonable price to a genuine Palacecfan? Edited by Nth Kent Eagle (14 May 2016 9.18pm)

Edited by Nth Kent Eagle (14 May 2016 9.18pm) its not my style to disrespect any one if I have to be with you guys then I will respect your fans, yes I'm a United fan but I'm a football fan I can literally watch any team play I just love the game, il not be wearing colours or cheering United if it goes our way due to respect to the opposition and the fact I don't want trouble just want to enjoy the game win or loose il probably not get another chance to go to a Fa cup final and have a pair of tickets so I'm going to make the most of it either way just hope everyone can enjoy the day no drama

You may find a Palace fan with a ticket in the FA allocation bit at the United end willing to swap. However, as I said earlier, there are many Palace fans gutted at not being able to see their team in the only cup final since they were born so you will understand the annoyance of their friends at seeing blatant away fans in our end. We had this with West Ham at the play offs in 2004 and Liverpool 2 years ago. As a United fan your team will be in the cup or Europe repeatedly so you may not understand what it means to us. Anyway, glad you will be showing respect.

Just do what you think Vince - you ARE doing a great thing for fellow Palace fans and you SHOULD feel good about it. Names out of a hat is fine! Don't let it give you a headache.
