It's all forgotten and in the past until the next anniversary but everyone remembers it when Cantona is mentioned? It's one or the other. You can't have both.

Quiet media week? It's one of the big Cup weeks of the year and we're in the middle of the transfer window yet your racist fan 20 years ago still gets top billing.

You pick.up on that one being offensive rather than one from your fellow fan who uses the word 'spastic'? Funny how these Palace fans are so myopic.

"all in the past"...."only claim to fame"... Haha! It's been all over the sports media this very week!

Most clubs out of the 92 are rubbish, ours and yours included. Brighton aren't particularly special for being rubbish. No-one remembers or cares anymore than they do about Bristol Rovers or Carlisle or Leicester. People DO remember Palace as the club with the racist fan who got drop-kicked...

Uh-uh. Not true. All the articles about Cantona are about the racist abuse footballers were getting and how the Cantona attack was a watershed in football. No-one has interviewed Simmonds as far as I'm aware recently. To the outside world he's a Palace fan and that IS how the world remembers...

But 20 years on will the BBC do loads of features on the play-off game like they did when one Man Utd player drop-kicked a racist Palace fan? That's how the world remembers your club.

Clearly it doesn't bother me or many other people as much as you want or we'd rise to the bait. Christ knows you've wound enough people up with your puerile trolling but NO-ONE and I mean NO-ONE seems particularly bothered that you beat us a few years back. You keep going on about it and...

That's all you've got and that's why you're a troll. There's no attempt at debate. Every SINGLE time someone comes up with something that's just a wee bit too difficult for you to respond to you come out with that scoreline - and look how many times you've played that card now - you're a very...

Not quite. I proved you're full of shit with your mock outrage and a simpering hypocrite for accusing us of the same and I'm also calling you a troll. Time for you to face the incontrovertible truth, you're just another sad sack troll. We've had them before, we'll have them again. You're...

Ah...now here comes the next part in the charade. Clearly the outrage that you've been expressing has ever so quickly disappeared(and of course it would, it wasn't real; we all know that) and because I've sworn twice you're going to make out that I'm apoplectic with rage. I'm not angry anymore...

Pathetic. I'm talking about the manufactured outrage when saying we are comparing his death with this incident. Totally pathetic. Someone mentioned your club's long history of being in the news for the wrong reasons. The Cantona kick was mentioned. YOU then mentioned the other incident. YOU...

The only person making the comparison is YOU in a pathetic attempt to stir up some faux outrage to mitigate your club's actions in this sordid little affair. You accuse us of faux outrage and then conjure up this bullshit. Paul Dacre would be proud. I think it's time you conceded defeat. Your...

...The Paul Dacre of Palace trolls.

No. You're confusing me with Croydon Council. They're the ones who want to annex themselves from London. Hope that helps, I doubt it though.

Yes! FFS! But clearly the town and the people of Croydon have an identity crisis about how it sees itself to where it is officially. And serious enough to apply for its own city status 3 (yes, THREE) times in the past 15 years. Those are official bids, not a few crackpots with too much time on...

Your lot = Croydon folk. Simple as that. It's a fact. I'm not twisting anything, the people of Croydon have tried 3 times in the last 15 years to be it's own city. The fact that it's been rejected 3 times and that outsiders don't share the view doesn't stop the people of Croydon regarding...

Just...think...that...sentence...through...again... Does it see itself as part of London or is it its own place with sufficient self-identity to class itself as a separate city away from London? 3 attempts at city status rather suggests the latter. It's nothing to do with what I'm suggesting. I...

It's already been picked up by the Argus and Croydon Advertiser today who deemed it newsworthy and it's a ready-made unusual story for the end of sports news items so no point directing the 'let it go' at me, you utter spanner.

It's newsworthy because of its unusual back story. The sort of thing that gets a "and finally" mention on 5 Live and TalkSport. It's not a question of whether anyone outside of the M23 corridor cares about it or not.
