Work colleague, a neighbour and some of wife's family are all Palace fans, and are pretty sound. I've absolutely loved this week. Palace also gave my son some work experience within the academy at Beckenham (along with Millwall and Bromley) and he didn't get food poisoning.

Palace are a proper old school football club and they can make a great racket at home. Far better in every single way than a club like Chelsea

Their official website provides much better coverage of their academy teams (with full match reports, etc) and you can watch their academy sides' matches on Palace TV (with the schedule known in advance) along with decent-length highlight packages.

Albion U-18s host Palace U-18s tomorrow - a match that ALL Albion fans can watch if........they sign up to Palace TV.

Palace TV

What a shame they do coverage of their academy teams WAY better than Albion do. :nono:

Hmmmm...maybe.

Interestingly regarding our last respective games, Brighton were AWAY to Spurs and the match thread shows 703 postings. Palace were at HOME to Chelsea and the match thread shows 1600 postings.

Overall, I still feel their forum is significantly better than ours. I think they have about 16 or so sections ( even a music section ..ha ha ) which posters seem to abide by pretty well. Personally for me it makes reading about the football far better than the mish mash chaotic format of our Big Board. I appreciate that many here prefer this disorganised way to have what is supposed to be a football forum for our Club.


I do wonder how they pay for their forum. I have never been asked for a donation or joining fee. I see very little interference from the Moderators provided you stay to the allotted section. Or for that matter, asking posters to buy from Amazon.

It would be interesting if people are any wiser as to how they financially manage it ?

When you’re on the train out of London and you go past Selhurst Park, you know you’ll soon be back in Sussex

Personally I prefer ours. Like the randomness of threads which I can dip in and out of. If they were on separate forums I'd probably never bother to look.

I'll go with the "I've got mates who are Palace" angle.

I'll also say they've had past players who are hard to dislike for a variety of reasons: Ian Wright, Geoff Thomas, Clinton Morrison and Glen Murray.

I adore Geoff Thomas for the funniest ever “Palace player playing for England” moment.
