03/05/09 - Crystal Palace Match Thread

[Monty's_Girl]

Now I have to decide whether to go to Leeds on sunday as planned and take a trip to Sheffield and find a pub in Sheffield for during the match OR try and get tickets for the match and go to Leeds the following weekend.

Go to the match & have a good time!

 

[Foxy]

evening from the very happy golden lion. place absolutely rocked when Preston scored!

We have no sound, but brum look like they've been relegated!

Lets pack Selhurst, get behind the lads and pile the pressure on Brum.

UP THE BLADES!!!!

 

[BuryStEdmundsBlade]

Go to the match & have a good time!

Maybe, undecided at the moment. The cost of going to the game AND then spending time in Leeds isn't good!

 

[Liaminho9]

bet warnock plays the under 11s hahahahahahaha

 

[BuryStEdmundsBlade]

Decided not to go to the game just incase we don't go up and we need the money for the play off tickets!

 

[rachyblade]

bet warnock plays the under 11s hahahahahahaha

Be his way of sayin up yours to the FA wouldnt't it

 

[Mr Barking P.]

Two years ago Birmingham City's promotion to the Premier League was secured when Derby lost to .............. Crystal Palace.

Doubtless lightning will strike twice

But don't feel too bad about it - Derby did make it via the play-offs

 

[matth]

True Mr Barking! Fingers crossed though. Hopefully I'll be able to get 3 tickets today...

 

[The One]

RAWRRRRRRR!

The chants of "Their's only one Neil Warnock" rang through the Golden Lion last night. WOOOOOOHOOOOOO!

 

[dutchblade]

Decided not to go to the game just incase we don't go up and we need the money for the play off tickets!

Decided to go next weekend, had booked a flight already. Will not pay a month rent if we don t go up next sunday and fly again at may 11th...lol

 

[Linz]

Palace tickets are on general sale tomorrow!

 

[dutchblade]

How many do we get?

 

[Linz]

How many do we get?

When we asked before, the lass in the ticket office said 5000. I should imagine that if we sell all them, we get whatever is remaining in that stand.

They aren't being very clear about the tickets that go on sale tomorrow, do you reckon we can get them over the phone? Will we get anymore? According to the palace forum they have all been moved from the stand now.
