Considering we had the spine of our team ripped out in the first half of this year, I expected nothing less than a relegation battle. How anyone could expect a promotion push with a completely new team, manager and chairman was beyond me.

Next season is different, I'm not expecting promotion but the doog is building something and our academy is only producing more gems.

Considering we have our ground taken away, oh what's the point ? We have good reasons for where we went, you don't you just got too big for your creditors' boots.

The problem with Palace and Brighton fans is we're too stubborn. You see Archer as the antichrist yet if we mention Agilo in the same breath it's dismissed.

In an ideal world the ham-fisted barrow boys that had a go at running our club would have made a better hash of it. Still both Golberg and Jordan each pumped approximately £30million of their own cash into Palace and both failed - can't condem them for trying though.

As has been pointed out many times on this thread, we went into admin owing £30million second time round - sounds like a fcuk up on monumental proportions until you realise that £26million of it was owed to Jordan and we were only forced into admin by a twitchy creditor who ended up losing out anyway (and now regrets it).

I know it may irk you guys, but we are now, without doubt, the most financially stable club in the Championship, so let's move on and look forward to a game at a cracking stadium and one at yours :)

Big difference there, Archer made a fat profit but Agilo (and everybody else you owed money to) didn't.

From the horses mouth, they fully regret their actions in hindsight. I'm not complaining with our new board as they're a breath of fresh air, but under Warnock we could of done a Blackpool. They got itchy feet and paid for it.

The point you continue to miss is that our financial problems did not leave anybody bar ourselves short. We sold our ground to pay off debts, you did not. For a long time Palace fans have sneered at us because of our limited situation, the reasons for same are completely different to yours though. The bottom line is (as usual) we paid our debts and you did not. Had you lived within your means you'd have been no better than us so you need to stop kidding yourself that we have anything in common, we don't apart from the fact that next season we'll not only be in the same division but we will also easily be the better team.
