2 tickets for £25 to see Palace v Doncaster. You have to be offering a minimum of 50% discount for Groupon to run an offer for you and they take 50% of the value, so take the VAT off and it's 2 tickets for £10.
Be interesting to see what the take up is for a tiny club in Croydon.

They apparently reached an FA Cp semi-final recently, by beating Manchester United.
And what are the chances of "26,000 dedicated fans" turning up?
Go, soccerball!
Although an unlikely social group, footballers, conductors, and harsh-marking teachers tend to bond over their love of scoring. Watch tick-worthy tricks with today’s Groupon: £25 for two tickets to watch Crystal Palace FC vs Doncaster Rovers on Saturday 11 February.
About the Club
Silencing crowds with buzz-cut strikes, fingertip saves, and well-crafted crosses, Crystal Palace Football Club has become synonymous with gritty displays of determination and top-class talent for more than a century. The club is currently testing net stitch-work with a vigorous Championship league campaign, alongside toppling giants Manchester United to reach the FA Cup semi-final. The multinational squad calls in talents from Argentina, Australia, Mexico and the UK, all performing under the watchful eyes of manager and Palace veteran Dougie Freedman.
About the Event
Donning the famous red and blue colours, two football aficionados can pass the Selhurst Park turnstiles to watch fiery displays of talent as Palace take on long-term rivals Doncaster Rovers. Looking to return the favour from a 1-0 defeat in September, the home side is sure to put on a show, performing in an electric stadium atmosphere charged by the passionate shouts of 26,000 dedicated fans.
at least we know who their rivals are now :-)
Surely someone normal must have to review it before it gets sent out ?
'The club is currently testing net stitch-work with a vigorous Championship campaign '. Wtf ?????

Was this written by a six year old, american from a 1980's gameshow script team as a part of a "How to fail at Life" course?
Embarrassing stunt from an utter embarrassment of a football club.
Either that's a brilliant piece of satirical, Superbowl based marketing or it's quite the most ridiculous thing I've seen in ages.
...but that'sfrom a while ago, and now there are plenty of 'proper' football fans there who would cringe just as much as us at the Groupon guff (they watch the Prem on ESPN with Ian Darke commentating, so normal football-speak is what is expected)
Silencing crowds with buzz-cut strikes, fingertip saves, and well-crafted crosses
They don't need all that to be silenced
Surely this is an offence under the Trade Descriptions Act - "performing in an electric stadium atmosphere charged by the passionate shouts of 26,000 dedicated fans."
Quite an acheivement fitting that many lies into 15 words.
