Just allowing myself to imagine this worst case scenario (they knock us out and go up) and I don't know maybe it's because I'm so distanced from it but I don't think it would be as much the end of the world as some people are suggesting.

Think about it. They are totally unprepared for life in the Premier league, would get absolutely SPANKED week in week out and we'd STILL have larger gates than them even though we're in the division below.

None of your buisness
Beating them in the final would be the cherry on our cake. I actually want them to make it to the final with us.

I could cope.

Our future is bright. Nothing will stop us, even if we don't do it this season.

I think as usual - it will be bad for a while - but there are a lot of worse
things in life, so perspective; it's only a game.

They have had bragging rights by at least a division if not two for the majority of the last two decades. If we lose to them in the play-offs, then they still have bragging rights and will no doubt replace 5-0 and FFS Murray with said play-off victory. I would cope. HOWEVER, put the boot on the other foot, and it would be something they are not and have not been used to multiplied by 10. TBH I reckon a Palace fan would find it way harder than us.

Absolutely. If we were to knock them out on our way up it would be a LOT harder on them than it would be on us.

They might be unprepared for the Prem, they may get spanked and come straight back down, BUT, they would be £48 million richer. Enough to start on a new ground and begin to rebuild their tinpot, ramshackle football club. They would also have the bragging rights till my dying day, or at least until we did the same to them.

No thanks all round from me.

Couldn't stand having to suffer the return of that infernal tosser Glenn Murray on here and his incessant gloating. I don't 'give it' on their board, so shouldn't have to 'take it' on here.

Far better that either Palace finsh the season 7th or 8th, or that they get knocked out by, say Bolton, in the the other playoff semi-final.

Getting beat by the scouse in the 2006 FA cup final was pretty devastating but it was nothing compaired to the heatache i felt loosing to those Palace slags in the 2004 play-off final. A whole season bolloxed in 90 minutes. I felt like kicking the dog when i got in...as well as the mrs and kids !!!!!
 








IF they did go up I would very much enjoy the Premier League refusing them entry on the basis that their ground doesn't meet Prem requirements.:shit:
