[Football] If Palace can't play in the Europa League

[Peacehaven Wild Kids]

So when the capacity at Withdean was increased to 9000, you didnt fill it?

Why when the new ground opened did it jump to 30000? In my opinion the new ground is just as difficult to get to as the old one.

As for our own attendances, the season we had 4005 at home to Wimbledon was one of our worst, and if I remember correctly, had a certain A Mullery in charge, which was never going to work given his history.

Away following? Play off semi final against Sheffield Wednesday ring any bells?

When you’ve quite finished I’ll happily discuss the size of my garden with you.

It didn't. The capacity of the Amex when it opened was only 21,000-something

Expanded to 27,750 in 2012, 30,750 in 2013 and later to its current 31,876.

That is shockingly unambitious.

Are you certain you have the right people on your Board?

It’s almost the kind of lack of ambition that might…I dunno…lead to nearly catastrophic non-compliance with UEFA rules because of no ambition or belief in the team, manager, or club.

Looking around Europe at the other teams and had a chill go down my spine. There really aren’t a lot of good teams in the Europa League. Roma, yes, but apart from them? Porto? Betis? Lille, maybe? Villa too but Palace strolled past them at Wembley. And that’s before we consider that Glasner has already won the Europa League once, is very well acquainted with the competition and is generally somewhat of a cup expert anyway. They seriously, genuinely could win it. That would kill the rivalry forever, Shirley?

Now teams aren't dropping down, any English Premier League team should be favourites for both the Conference and the Europa. You are right, they could well win it. Looks like we may have to support Villa, perish the thought.

Feyenoord, Club Brugge, Fenerbache, Celtic and Benfica can all still drop into the Europa League during the Champions League qualifying rounds.

I’d love to see the Palace Always Ultras in Turkey.

 

[Wozza]

Palace fans: "Ha ha. You filled 98 pages with talk of Palace being kicked out of Europe".

Yeah, it was mostly Palace fans talking sh1te...

 

[Gazwag]

So is poundland back in business now the always ultras are buying up their felt tips for the tifos

If English teams constantly do well in Europa league and conference league will that help out with top 5 English teams being in the champions league?

For my own part, I worked 6 days a week during that time, don’t think Mrs LLF would have been too happy if I disappeared all day to football leaving her with 3 young kids to look after.
I think you’ve answered your own question.

I have a question for you.

Why did your attendance go from an average of 16,500 in 2012-2013, to 26.500 average, in 2013-14?

Groupon

Ah the old Lloyds bank protest, literally the ONE protest Palace fans bring up. You could probably pick any week from the Gory Years to find Brighton fans involved in summer kind of activism to save the club.

We had to though didn't we. They knew the option to save spam was there, write off debts, not pay businesses and start their new club in the same league as the previous one.

Why would they give a shit with that lack of jeopardy? Morality and fair play don't feature for our friends up the road.

Try telling that bloke from HLTCO that, he actually compares Palace's plight with that of Coventry, Bury, Charlton, Wimbledon and the Albion (and others) . Palace were never going bust let alone lose almost everything and their fans did diddly squat in any case (apart from have a shame-triggered whip round for the St John's Ambulance)

They made a shit film about it too, or was it a series? I didn't make it very far through.

I did find out that it was possible to feel second hand embarrassment for a club you cont stand though. Quite a feat of filmmaking to be fair.
