Hi eveyone,

I have recently outed myself as a non football fan,

but as we have friends coming from abroad l am trying to be helpful.

As we can't watch a saturday afternoon match on TV, they wanted to go and watch it live.

I wanted to buy them two tickets for next crystal palace match in selhurst stadium, but tickets cost either ?50 or around ?15 for members. Right?

Is it really so expensive as a non-member or are there any other options?

Please enlighten me.

Tickets at CPFC normally cost ?35 and upwards


For league matches, tickets go to members first and can sell out before going on general sale. If there is a discount for members it's nominal.


This Saturday is an FA Cup game against Stoke and tickets are available for ?15.00 as demand is generally lower for cup games.


Hamlet is a tenner to get in and is great. It might well be raining this weekend though, and there isn't much cover there, so you and your friends may get wet.

1. Dulwich Hamlet

2. Hang around schools, particularly those in Croydon, as Palace often give tickets to primary schools (no don't!)

3. Hang around Palace on match day, there are often dodgy geezers with cheap tickets or people with spares

4. Dulwich Hamlet

There are no Premier League matches this Saturday, only FA Cup. The next round of PL matches is on Tuesday/Wednesday evening, and Arsenal, West Ham and Palace are at home, (also Watford, which is easy to get to from London). If they are very keen to go you need to check with both the home and away clubs - probably easiest just to call the ticket office and ask if there are any available for general sale. I wouldn't be that hopeful though - your best bet might be trying to get tickets for the away end for West Ham v Aston Villa as (i) it's a Tuesday night (ii) it's a schlep from Birmingham to East London (iii) it's live on BT Sport and (iv) Villa are shit and are odds on to get stuffed. However, if you're in the away end at Upton Park you're going to get abuse from a load of sweaty, sweary Hammers fans, but that just makes the experience more 'real'.

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      Was it the promise to act as a "strong voice" for Muslims that sealed the deal? The Green Party hired Abi Wilkinson from the Sultana wing of Your Party just before the Manchester by-election. She's on record as denying sexual violence during the 7 October 2023 attacks on Israel by Hamas, which is not true. I wonder if she was also responsible for the dodgy text of the Urdu and Bengali comms the Green Party pumped out in the last days of the campaign? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_and_gender-based_violence_in_the_October_7_attacks https://www.reddit.com/r/ukpolitics/comments/1rhrd36/fury_as_green_party_spin_doctor_denies_women_were/

      Good to see a Blue Tit investigating my camera bird box for a potential family plot this season.

      I've not engaged in this debate so far but you can't be more wrong. In the UK our own language is English, there is a small minority who can rightly claim their language is Welsh or Gaelic, and a couple Cornish. British Muslims, Jews, Hindus, Christians, atheists etc will usually speak British, even if not their first language.  The vast majority will be able to understand English.   A small percentage, less than two percent, of people living in the UK have little or no English (census data).  It is right that in certain situations eg schools there is signage and information in other languages, providing public information. It is wrong that a political party do this, particularly one who came across as opportunist on this occasion. There is an interesting conversation about British expats living, for example, on the continent, where I expect huge swathes who can hardly say a word of French, Spanish etc.
