A different kind of pasty
If you genuinely believe The Premier League is the best league in the world then are even more deluded than I thought it was possible to be.

Thanks for proving he point. In the 5 years of owning a stadium at last, we have kept hugely impressive home attendances - the best in the league overall, still in the same league and long after the 'new stadium factor' wore off. Thanks :thumbsup; Ypur 10k increase thanks for the prem league however...

I don't mind some of you lot being on here, but if you are at least try and have a serious debate rather than being a troll.
I doubt you know a huge amount about our players and see them on a regular basis to make that sort of comment, unlike some of our supporters who get to see you on Match of the day every week and live games on Sky.
From what I've seen I would say:
Stockdale and Hennessey are pretty level in terms of ability
Solly March is as good as Zaha was before going to Man Utd, but better at staying on his feet.
Kayal is as good as Joe Ledley
And Wilson is better than anything you have upfront at the moment, although not ours he is in our team, which was your statement.
LuaLua would probably be worthy of a place on the bench if he could stay fit long enough.
Oh and Hughton over Pardew any day of the week.

Let's not pretend that simply being the same division counts as being on level terms. Unless you're happy saying that we're on a par with City or Arsenal. We've had three years to establish ourselves as a PL club. Our turnover has exceeded yours by hundreds of millions of pounds, we've built a fantastic squad with a great manager, and we've secured an enormous amount of foreign investment to improve our infrastructure.
Suggesting that Palace will get relegated this season is, obviously, laughable. We'd need some seriously shit luck over the course of a season to go down when you've got 31 points at Christmas. The bookies put the chances of that happening at about 150/1. Considering we're only likely to invest further in the playing staff and the facilities, I'd suggest we're likely to spend the forseeable future in the Premier League.
Let's not forget, up until about a month ago when Cabaye, Bolasie, Wickham, Gayle, Sako etc. all got injured, Palace were considered to be genuine contenders for a European spot. We haven't suddenly become shit, and we're still likely to finish in the top 10 barring a catastrophic run of injuries.
1. No. Hennessey.
2. That is absolutely hilarious. I look forward to United signing Solly March for £15m in the near future. I cannot emphasise enough how much better Zaha is than Solly bloody March. Zaha, a full England international, will likely be going to Euro's in 2016. I'm not entirely sure that Mr. March will be joining him.
3. Kayal's a decent player, but Joe Ledley (who is still better) doesn't make it into a fully fit Palace side.
4. Wilson (who isn't even your player) is not better than Gayle or Wickham.
5. Lua Lua isn't fit to lace Bolasie/Zaha/Sako's boots.
As for Hughton over Pardew...

As I said, your opinion, I disagree with all of the above, but then I would wouldn't I. We are both bound to see our players through rose tinted glasses and what you see in the likes of Gayle and Wickham is beyond me.
Please stop quoting £15m for Zaha, you never got anything near that, it was £10m, he played 4 games and you bought him back for £3m, Solly would likely have been subject to a similar value bid from the premier league this window if he hadn't have picked up a serious injury.

Possibly the biggest load of one sided bollocks I've ever read on here - absolutely laughable...!
And know I doubt March will be going to the Euros either twatty
Although he has as much chance as Zaha (and he's out injured until the Summer btw

Full England international?
I do recall him coming on And falling over, but let's be honest here, he won't ever be considered again.

Bolton were far more established in the Premier League than Palace, as were Wigan, Fulham and Blackburn, and they ALL made it into Europe in that time. All it takes is one relegation; I predict yours will be in 16/17.

Suggesting palace will go down is never going to happen this season we know that but it's nice having a little dig ;-) you have 4 pretty straight forward fixtures coming up, lose the next 2 and the natives will be getting very restless I am sure though..... ;-)

If you honestly believe that, then you're a bigger ****ing muppet than any of your posts suggest. The only way he's going to the Euro's is on holiday.
Oh, and 'Full International'?! 7 minutes in a friendly...bless.
Not a chance in my opinion.
The relegated sides will be Villa plus 2 from the 5 above them. With the deckchairs looking the most likely to be 1 of those 2.
