The most amazing thing about that is, to me, that 90 minutes caved in and printed that apology. They should have told Noades to **** off!
Unless he said anything worse that is perfectly fair comment, and if the bully Noades had tried to sue he would have been laughed out of court.
By modern standards and for PL requirements it is now a very poor and antiquated stadium, no doubt about that.
But this is the chance Palace have earned themselves by going up, that they maybe couldn't have done if they had stayed down.
Don't go nuts on players, put money aside for the stadium...
