1st round v Birmingham all stands opened, some stands closed for the next round v BradfordTellyTubby said:
I maybe wrong, because I couldn't be arsed to go, but weren't all the stands for the Full Members Cup matches at Selhurst available? Our lowest ever attendances of around 800, even when the next match was Wembley.letthegoodtimesroll said:
Basically, yes. Not just because of the stands being closed but the whole approach to cup games sends out a powerful message to fans (and probably the players as well) that the club doesn’t give a shit about them. I still go to the cup games but it pisses me off when there is just the one catering outlet, sometimes two of we are lucky. On a freezing cold December (or January this season) something to eat (even if you are not hungry) and a drink makes all the difference.TellyTubby said:
You honestly think that fans don't bother with these matches because not all stands are open?Croydon said:
Vicious cycle. The club doesn't open the whole ground because people don't turn up. People don't turn up because the club is only opening part of the ground.DOUCHER said:

It annoyed me, mainly because to accuse fans of not being fans, or offering less support, because they have financial considerations, is absolute bollocks.TellyTubby said:
Your comments annoyed me, then I thought about it and you have a point.Greenhithe said:All this talk of whether you get better value from a season ticket and it might go from £16 to x a match etc etc. Then looking at how much you can watch on the telly. And "I cant get to night games or Sunday games or...." boo hoo hoo. You do know what "support" means dont you? No wonder that old tart called us customers.
I think we have all been impacted by the Belgian days. They didn't give a shit about us or have any ambitions for the club. So many of us then had a mindset of following Charlton but without wanting to hand over unnecessary cash that was destined for his pocket.
We need to get beyond that and regain our combined passion. I think that we may be heading in the right direction.
Why should I go to football if it doesn't suit me?
I'll go to the games that suit me.
If it makes me less of a supporter then so be.
What's your view on cup games? Are you "fairweather" if you choose not to go to them for any reason when neither money nor ability to actually get to the game is an issue?
I was at the Halifax Tuesday night game at The Valley with just 3k there for a league game, no closed stands then either.
If the football, price and competition is attractive, people will want to attend.2 -
It’s unlikely that shutting stands saves any money at FA Cup games in particular. Frankly they could have shut all the stands at Trophy games for all I care as once they introduced the group games and U21 teams I was done with it.TellyTubby said:

On the ticket site the season ticket FAQs webpage, e-brochure doc & the Help guides are still unchanged from the 2024/25 season. Very useful for anyone struggling to renew their 2023/24 season ticket, or wanting to know the 2024/25 prices. Perhaps these will be updated soon, to sit alongside the new hospitality brochure.

Personally, I’m disappointed with the take up so far and I suspect the club are as well. I suspect @bobmunro we wasn’t 25% up two weeks after being promoted, I reckon the bulk of the increase would have been already in pre-Wembley. If so, the uptake since I think is low and emphasises the point the post-Wembley pricing and strategy really hasn’t capitalised on the feel good momentum of a good season, Wembley and promotion,bobmunro said:Bedsaddick said:I would have thought we’d do 12-14k but I guess too many people have been out priced . Shame
I still think we will. About 8,000 last season and we're already up 25% just two weeks or so after getting promoted. Come the start of the season I expect c12,000 and with a decent start that will increase I'm sure.
For comparison, Coventry last announced ST figure was 17.5k, Portsmouth cap at 15k, Watford had 12.5k renewals at end-Apr and they want their owners out, Preston after a number of nothing seasons are over 11k etc. None of those are Champ big boys, I’m just using as a comparative
appreciate this sounds a bit negative, just a bit frustrated there hasn’t been more pick up or a better approach to delivering more pick up. AC Stand sales are particularly low for example.5 -

Preston, Watford and Coventry are established Championship clubs and there's nothing to do in Portsmouth every Saturday other than go to the football.

Portsmouth only holds 20,688 so presumably around 2-2,500 away and 5,000 for match day sales means the S/T sales actually probably not that many more than ours...0
