It's amazing Wayne..

Long ago it was a ringing phone in a nissan hut outside the old Grandstand.

The way they've been with the Single is unbelievable mate.

Like I've said...looking more and more like a Premiership team on and off the pitch.

It's what the big clubs do...and tell people about their history...get the kids.
Let them know it's not about teams hundreds of miles away but your local club..where men like Fred Keenor played.
Then you'll keep them for life. :ayatollah:

there is certainly something amis regarding the family stand ticket sales though
a number of times this week ive heard from people and seen on the boards that you could only get single tickets for todays game plus the next few.
there were lots of empty spaces in the stand today with little sections of 10 or so empty seats so there is an issue withn the online sales somewhere

up to 3,000 season ticket holders fail to turn up on average every match. Perhaps this is the reason ?

yes its true , i haven't got the full figures but I know 18,900 were in the ground for the Palace game, yet the announced crowd was 22,007.

I know it was a night game, but, I the club have advised me of this.
