26th November, most were out Xmas shopping and many families stayed away due to trouble!

I thought most of you did your Xmas shopping on the 9th August last year?

Valentines Day.

I could have tried to sneak along, but YES, my boyfriend would have known I was there.

I'll take bets on how many posts until he, realising he is losing, says:

"I was only fishing! Got you all! etc"

"fishing" = used as a get out clause by people who are getting destroyed in an argument.

I think we play as well as eachother this seaon, and our two games against eachother have shown that, we just have not had the LUCK your team have had this season.

Or, in fact, the support!

 

[Mellotron]

Enjoy your moment!

Do you genuinely think it's only a "moment"?

Are you going to suddenly be in a better stadium? Suddenly with a better manager? Suddenly higher than a league?

It won't be a moment. Get used to it.

Attendances at Falmer are completely taking the piss out of Selhurst and this is the best comeback you can manage?

Of the people who DIDN'T go for whatever reason last night (and yes, Valentine's Day does play a big part in this) the vast majority of them had already paid for their seat, so the club's not out of pocket. Unlike the situation at Palace where you need as many bums on seats as you can get to boost the pitiful number of season ticket holders you have, and therefore the revenue.

I'd love to see matchday income figures, Falmer vs Selhurst. I bet the difference is HUGE. Falmer is a cash cow for our club. Selhurst is a dilapidated pit of shit that's just draining resources.

Can't argue with that.

In terms of football and results I think so. We will piss this league next season, watch this space.

Now I know you're a troll. Another summer of being feeder club to Bolton/Wigan, and it's back to square one.

Oh really? Oh, I'm sorry. A month before Christmas, compared to "one the actual day"...Right...

But let's be honest, 13,000 is your average attendance for home supporters. So not many were actually out shopping or avoiding trouble. Did they do the same when we popped up?

That is an incredibly confident statement and given that you haven't any real money or investment in the squad and next season is unlikely to be any different I can't see it myself. You'll do well to finish mid table on current form and next season will be another struggle as there will again be far better teams than palace in the championship with considerably bigger budgets. I know you lot harp on and on about your academy but seriously it isn't going to get you promoted and the best players will leave as they always do.

No, they only turn up for big games Vs Cardiff or Peterborough on family days.

Not only has the Palarse troll been totally owned by his own stupidity in starting this thread, but I think we should also make him our 'best bitch'?

 

[Bean]

Only 19,500 last night 2500 missing fans, where were they? potential play off place at stake and they they stayed at home, Come it was only Millwall what were you scared of?

Maybe the novelty is slowly wearing off.

And you'd put money on that would you? I mean real money that you can't get back if you lose. Not the sort of money Palace "spend"

 

[Tony Meolas Loan Spell]

But it WAS a sell out if you define could you get a ticket and the answer is no. Superfan alert but i was buying my hull away tix and as i was doing so at least three different people were asking if there were any returns and the answer was no. Come on croydonbloke i expect better from you.
