    I expect if you just leave a few mops, some bleach and buckets around, normal "day job" behaviour will kick in and by the end of the match we'd have a sparkling new stand.

    Maybe the best thing is for you to bring your own seat.

    Detachable seats have been used in central Bedfordshire for many years.

    Am I the only person who thinks holloway instigated poogate himself to motivate his own players?

    A compromise might be to smear dog ***** on the coaches?

    @PALACEKEV Do us a favour, because I'm pretty sure your fan base doesn't collectively have a low IQ, yet they seem to think that we're scared which is why we haven't given you the whole Vic Road stand. Despite the fact that there's only one segregation bit in the stand and it's dead in the middle. Despite the fact that the police are also involved and would've limited your allocation because you're a London club. Despite the fact that we're allowed to give the bare minimum and you lot would give the bare minimum as well.

    Just spread that message cos this is beyond stupid. Cheers

    Oh well that's okay then. Seats on the tube are usually covered in poo, pi55, dead skin, coca cola and cum stains. Sorted.

    If you want to guarantee your own seat then you have the first couple of days to do it. If you're not fussed about having your seat then you just have to wait until the lowest category Fan ID in the group goes on sale and you can buy together.

    Risky though on this occasion as there will be less tickets available overall.

    One lucky ST holder gets to sit on the bench.

    The notorious Jack Bonham role.

    Ironically if palace fans were quieter u might have got the whole stand! Credit where credit's due, you'll still outsing us but probably not enough to have a big influence on the result. A full stand of palace fans could have won it for you.

    You won't get any more as they've gone on sale to us from today for the other 3 sides of the ground.

    An extra 2000 fans wouldn’t make Benteke any better as a striker.

    Fair enough they can be a noisy bunch but Palace fans are going on like their ‘famous’ hostile/febrile atmosphere carries them to multiple wins. They’ve won as many major trophies as us and are struggling in the league. I’d say it means the grand total of nothing.

    You are entitled to 15% of capacity. That’s what you got. It’s sensible self-preservation for us to not give you more - so you can ask the question but you won’t get them.

    Looking at some of the rather aggressive comments on their forum is it any surprise the club won't give them more ..

    I suspect there will be trouble tbh .

    I imagine they want the ones that will be netted off at the front of the stand.

    But that won't happen because the safety certificate will prevent that from happening as it will exceed the maximum allowable assuming they get id of the net between the left and right sides of the stand.

    There's no net there now - there's a permanent barrier between the two halves of the stand. But that isn't what I meant.

    Palace have been given around 3,100 but there's going to about 1,000 empty seats which we're just refusing to sell them. Their fans seem to think those empty seats are at the front of the stand based on the tickets they've been sold. Basically we've given them the whole stand but *********d them by keeping them back from the pitch and surrounded by empty seats/netting.

    If we win there will be.
    If we lose they'll be too happy for a scrap and we'll all go home shrugging our shoulders and kick the cat.
