Post by: frankmosswasmyuncle on July 20, 2015, 09:16:11 AM: If you go on today's home page of the OS details about tickets are the 4th item listed. With details of the other pre-season games and Bournemouth sold out and Palace away (tickets on sale today).

Honest.

Post by: frankmosswasmyuncle on July 20, 2015, 09:26:25 AM: I always book my tickets using the phone, so that I can talk to a living, breathing person who knows stuff...often have to explain things about my mate's disabled daughter.
That's the best bet I reckon.

Post by: UK Redsox on July 20, 2015, 09:26:55 AM: There seems to be a problem with online ticket sales this morning.

Palace is shown as being on General Sale (it is not, it is at 10 aways) but wouldn't let me buy on line. I ordered over the phone and reported the web problem.

I guess that the same fault could be affecting the Swindon game.

However, I thought that ticket sales for away games stopped a day or two prior to each match. That might be why Swindon tickets aren't on sale from Villa
