Family stand......

Tue Dec 25, 2012 9:27 pm

At Peterboro, a large number of people didn't show up to the game....Demand has been really high for the Palace game and it would be a shame if a lot of the family stand did not turn up whilst others have been wanting to go. If they don't intend to go, then maybe they should sell their tickets off for that game?

The club have been vert slow on the uptake here. I have 2 seats in the family stand but don't make all games. There is no official procedure to resell my seats.

The club don't seem to care. Fair enough these people have paid for their seats but they've taken advantage of the low priced deals. The Family Stand in general is a joke.

If I had a pound for every time this was mentioned, I'd be able to buy the club back and turn it to blue :lol:

The canton always looks half empty :?
I think the prices for kids in the family stand is great but some do take advantage and not turn up.
Maybe the club can solve the problem with these stay aways but not punishing families/kids who attend nearly every game at the same time

I didn't turn up for family reasons and passed on my season ticket, I'm unsure if it was used mind. :lol:

The Canton stand always looks quite full, you're thinking of the family stand.

No im thinking of the canton stand and it only looked full once this season and that was against peterborough ..
Obviously you havnt seen the corners and the front of the canton during games :roll:

The corners are understandable as no one really wants to sit there and whenever I see it it's only the first 3 or 4 rows really. Although saying that I've only seen it live at Huddersfield and Wolves live and any other time if I can find a stream. Weren't having a go at you.

I agree with this, prior to the Peterboro game the Canton stand has always had loads of empty seats, the only part of the ground that appears relatively full on a regular basis is the Ninian stand

The Canton is never full but it's always no where near "half empty"
