Well Coppells gone

As you all well know Coppell was a god to us palace fans he kept us up through out our adminatration years won us promotiom to the premiship,took us to an FA cup final,so when he decided to leave Crystal Palace because he did not get on with Simon Jordan we were all gutted
.
Then i heard the news on southen sound that coppell had joined Brighton as their new mamager you can imagine my stomork hit the floor,Coppell at our arch rivals no this could not be,
he brought Brighton up to Selhurst after only a feew weeks in charge,for that famos 5-0 hammering and i even felt sorry for Coppell after the game
.
Then he stated to work his magic and turned a shambles of a brighton team into a very hard to beat division one side and was only one win short of keeping brighton up with no money to play with,
This season coppell has Brighton playing like a promotion winnings side already and division one looks on again for next season and then after 11 games he going to reading.

I must say i can see why he wants to go to reading,lots of cash to spend on players,shot at the premiship,new stadium,big wages,but i have never been a big reading fan,they have a very poor fan base i remember them playing at selhurst with only 300 fans who did not get behind their team,but at brighton the fan all get behind their club and surpport their manager and as this board proves(NSC) reading will never have a fan base like brighton.
still brighton have lots to look forward to
a new ground
a new manager
playing palace in division one next season

I will defo look foreward to playing you again and next time it will be different!!! Coppell will soon realise what sort of fans he has taken on they are no match on us. Only last week Coppell was thanking us for our support at Rushden as both Coppell and Rushden were not expecting all 1200 of us!!!! That being our 3rd away trip in 7 days.

This is one of the reasons why I like reading Brighton Rock's posts (even if he is Palace!!)

Cheers BR

BR, that's a very noble thing for a Palace supporter to write, and credit to you for being able to see past the rivalry. Hell, I'm looking forward to when you play Reading. I may even hope for Palace to give them a 5-0 maulling because in my opinion that's what Coppout deserves.
