No wowwies. I honestly don't know what's worse fella, the people on the BBS who suck up all this obviously absurd crap, or the Palace on here who suck up all this obviously absurd crap.
:)
:ffsparr: Sheesh! REALLY fella!? And here was me seriously thinking we were Premiership in all but name. Thankfully your post was the wake up call I sorely needed. Thanks for taking part.
For Cleon, SJ, and everyone else on the BBS who loves and supports NSC day-in-day-out - it was a gag! BHA are a second tier club, nothing more, nothing less, and anyone who thinks otherwise is frankly an idiot of Ian Holloway proportions.
:wink:
P-lease! Palace could spend the next two decades in the top flight and never be considered a 'PL team' as you call them. Arsenal, Man Utd or Liverpool maybe, but Palace!
:amex:
We've never even been there but even we've got more right/status to call ourselves a 'PL team'!
And when you finally move back to the newly completed wonky Selhurst Park it'll be like a home-from-home, thereby easing the transition for players, staff and fans.
If Jo Brand's demanding to be housed in the newly revamped Arthur Waite that'll bring the potential capacity down even further.
A local West Norwood family road-test the new Brand 'chair for life' before it is installed at Selhurst:
The lure of Selhurst Park may be less attractive. Build a new ground and you'd enjoy a groundswell of support as we have. Redevelop the two old stands at Selhurst and you'll be missing out on a fanbase injection.
The problem facing any cash rich club is that unless they're willing to trawl the Latvian, Estonian and Malaysian leagues/have a very good scouting network they're at the mercy of prospective selling clubs trying to take the p*ss. It's known as 'The Man City Syndrome.'
As we speak there are SKY plastic Arsenal, Spurs, Chelsea, Liverpool, Man Utd, Man City etc. fans up and down the country scratching their heads as to where Crystal Palace is, and wondering whether they are a 'newly founded soccer franchise'
