With the standard of facilities, will Selhurst be looked upon as the Withdean of the Premiership and the place to avoid for premiership fans next season?
There are some wonderful stadiums in the Prem and then there is Selhurst

No, it's OK for us to laugh at Selhurst but many fans will prefer to visit a creaky old ground than, say, the Madjeski or St Mary's or the Britannia. But with the millions coming Palace's way, perhaps the old place might not be quite so shabby for much longer.

Until we get a new stadium or redeveloped Selhurst, it will have to do.
I think it will work in our favour, all these millionaire footballers won't like roughing it .

I agree with @Se20 - I think it will work in Palace's favour, in the same way that Withdean worked in our favour for the first few seasons.

This. I'd rather be watching Man United on a wooden beach than Yeovil on a nice padded seat.
