Is this question for real? No Palace, no football - with the exception of the occassional jaunt down to Crawley or other local non-league sides.

Aite everyone... ain't been on here for a while but had a quick browse on here and some of you are clearly misinformed about the fact we are apparently bending over and taking it... that's something you're more accustomed to :thumbsup: It's a tricky one, because we don't actually know who we're...

This Helter Skelter is a moron... Kinda makes me think taking all that banter on the Falmer March wasn't worth it now... Cheers for the majority of comments guys. Thought we were fantastic last night and while the crowd was smallish, they were all paying customers so a nice bit of cash there...

Does much to dispel commonplaced stereotypes eh :thumbsup:

You know what, I haven't enjoyed it all. While it's been a boost to our egos having you in a lower league to us bar 2 seasons in the last 15 years or so, we've had to put up with Charlton's childish battle for our affections; 'Please hate us Palace!'. We've missed you to be honest.

No, obviously! But the vast majority of you are so right. Neither Palace or Brighton will never win the Premiership, we'll never win the FA Cup and we'll never amount to anything. But what we have is a hardcore fanbase of passionate, knowledgable and somewhat deluded fans who spunk untold...

Yeah, forgot about the likes of Colchester, Swindon and Carlisle. Silly me.

In better news, Warnock is staying on after being given assurances his entire squad will not be depleted. Moses and a couple of others will go and I'd like to think we can stay up with this in mind. Sorry lads, looks like you might need a promotion before you can mix it with the 'big boys'...

Reportedly, but I doubt even the administrators will accept that derisory offer.

I think we were expecting to get £5m plus for Moses before we went into administration, but I'd be amazed if we got more than £3m now, plus maybe some add-ons. We may have to sell a couple from Ambrose, Danns, Speroni and Clyne who, let's face it, are the only players we have that could raise...

Was brilliant in his short spell at Palace. It was during the Goldberg era when Venables made Palace into Australia. Would be good at League One level and probably even Championship level.

In the cold light of the early hours of the morning I'm not quite sure I'm as optimistic as I was yesterday. The result tonight aside, we were expecting Newcastle to beat us regardless of our financial plight (though we more than matched them from the reviews I've heard from my mates), but the...

I'm not sure, but I believe there is some legislation in place at the moment that means that Selhurst can only be used for recreational and leisure purposes only. I'm not sure if that is a permenent position or not.

You have been mislead here. When Goldberg bought the club he didn't have enough capital to buy the club including the ground. I think the deal was £40m with club and ground but Goldberg could only raise £30m. Noades said he'd keep the ground until you raise more capital. In the end it turned out...

This was forced administration of course, I think how this affects us long term depends on 1) the type of investor we can get, 2) how quickly they buy the club, 3) the plausbility of uniting club and ground and 4) how many players we can keep. I genuinelly believe if we stave off relegation this...

Yeah I know, he hasn't covered himself in glory. The current thinking on this is that he got a mortgage to cover his own expenses. I.e. replace his money in the club with outside money. He knew the ship was sinking, so got his assets, or as much as he could, out when he could.

I believe they are secured on future player sales. Therefore, no substantial offers for Moses, Ambrose, Speroni etc., no money in. Another sign of Jordan's incompetent business-sense.

It's a tough one. Noades has to take some responsibility for the way we went into administration last time, but the actual facts are unclear. The one thing Noades was and always will be is a shrewd businessman. Under Noades we had the most successful period in our history (FA Cup final, ZDS Cup...

It was Paul Kemsley, an ex-Director of Tottenham who owned Rock. And he was mates with Alan Sugar and not Noades. Jordan had and still had (until today) a buy-back option on the ground but obviously due to the club's predicament and his own personal issues he obviously couldn't afford it. The...

No, Noades has nothing to do with Rock. Rock was the company that bought Selhurst off Noades a few years back, a company that Jordan used to get the ground off Noades. Noades made an offer for the ground a couple of weeks ago, but any decision will be accelerated one way or another with today's...
