A great gesture by Palace

Bloody wonderful gesture. So not all Premier League clubs are money grabbing prima donnas.

Tremendous by Palace.

[Chris Black come back]

It’s a kind gesture - although let’s not get caught up in the propaganda machine of a Premier League side. The stadium has a capacity of 5300 and Palace will get at most 15pc of that. That’s 800 tickets at say £20 a pop. That’s 16k gross and once costs and tax deducted probably won’t be much over 10k. Palace will have academy players being paid not far off that each week. Also Macclesfield Town are hardly short of a few bob at that level.

They might as well keep it then, it’s only ten grand after all.  ;-)

Can’t people just appreciate the kind sentiment. Irrelevant of how much it is.
