So Jordan woke up one morning and discovered he owed £30M he couldn't pay did he? You and I know he didn't. He didn't do what any responsible person did which was live within your means. He carried on spending on players, staff and tanning products like nothing had changed. Undoubtedly Palace...

...you could have spent it all on sunbeds and hair products for your greasy ex-chairman for all that matters. You spent £30M you didn't have. I could make a little Venn diagram if it helps.

I beg to differ.

When the chickens came home to roost, they owed £5m more than you did when you went on your mad spending spree. The fact that you spunked £30m that you didn't have in double quick time doesn't make Palace's crime less palatable.

£35M estimated according to KPMG and it was about 2 and a half years before you went into administration for the second time. BBC SPORT | Football | My Club | Leeds United | Relegated Leeds in administration

No it's not bollocks. It's the truth. Leeds and Pompey also stole points - just like you did. They may have spent more money they didn't have (in fact Leeds estimated debt was only £5M more than Palace the second time round) but it was the same crime. Jesus wept. Are there any more ways we can...

Ooh. You really don't like empirical evidence do you? I would stick to meaningless comparisons but prefer to base my arguments on facts that can be backed up. I never said fans are expected to walk away but I don't expect fans to excuse the behaviour (comparing it to a minor crime like...

Eh? I've told you about three times now that what Pompey did was wrong. It does not excuse what Palace did in the slightest. Your analogy of shop fitter to rapist is sensationalist and inaccurate. You both committed the same "crime", yours was just effectively defrauding your creditors of less...

What a load of old tosh about St Johns Ambulance. The fact that the club left it to the fans to pay St John Ambulance is not a mitigating factor in excusing the club from their responsibilities. And you're still bleating about Pompey. If you had paid Agilo on time they would never have brought...

I'd accept that point except Chelsea and Man City don't enter into contracts with creditors with the intention of not paying them. Palace did twice. They didn't wake up one morning and discover they had no money - they must have known for ages and continued to pretend all was rosy. The only...

Oh dear. Have I touched a nerve? Your many points is a mere two wins from the drop zone. The point of a graph is it identifies how your team has managed over the last two seasons - no better than last year and just about enough again to scrape past the winning line. I'm sorry if you think that...

The supermarket in your ground is funny. There's no way of polishing that little turd however it came to be. Your team stayed up by paying for players and staff (twice) that they couldn't afford whereas none of your rivals did even once. Shit ground for only a few seasons more? Oh dear - you...

What? The old decrepit one bolted onto the supermarket that has a capacity of about 26,000 (only 4,000 bigger than our current capacity and smaller than the planned capacity)? Your current stadium had a max attendance this year has been 20,000 and an average of 15,000. That's a darn sight less...

Two years running, they've barely scraped survival. They are now locked in a huge battle for a new stadium, their current stadium being about the worst in the Championship and they've got the nerve to call our stadium soul-less when they've allowed a supermarket to be built there. Where's the...
