Spot on bigbelly. Problem these days is that kids have been brainwashed by sky tv and they all want to act like Watford or palace fans with drums and ultras. Sad really, but will be funny when they get into Anfield with their balloons as they will think, actually, this isnt such a great ground after all.
They will then notice that you can hear a pin drop in the ground apart from the away fans, and the ramp up "you'll never walk alone" is so cheesy that's its laughable.
Still they wont be told and if they want to look Noddy then its up to them really. kids today, i don't know, they seem to lack pride and dignity. Especially the Harry Potter lookalikes!
All clubs are turning into Nigels these days, its not just palace, although thankfully at least we dont have goal music and some teenager with a drum like that shower in the surrey suburbs.

Pack it in, its embarrassing. Grow a backbone, or as they say these days "man up". Balloons, I ask you, go and support palace, palace embarrassed themselves at the cup semi final doing that.. which I seem to remember they also failed to sell all their tickets for..

I wasn't going to buy any balloons - but I've changed my mind now. I've going to bring LOADS.
Interesting posts above regarding the SKY effect.. mmmmm
I can remember flags, dodgy plastic hats, pointy fingers - even balloons well before Murdoch was around. All the fun of FA cup me thinks.
Even Manchester United had official flat caps at the final. Possibly you couldn't make it ?
If anyone has been affected by the modern coverage and interpretation of the game it's the original poster.

See you there Xx
I don't normally agree with Bigbelly as he normally spouts quite a lot of crap, but on this occasion I do think he has a point. Balloons and the like is a touch cringeworthy.
It smacks of the big club - small club mentality and we aren't a small club anymore !

I really don't understand. Why do you care what a load of scousers think? I honestly could not be more uninterested in how they see us.

Love colour at football. Also agree with Le Grand Belly to a degree so I'm a bit on the fence on this one.

This - but don't we much prefer away fans who come to the amex and enter into the spirit of the match, add to the atmosphere etc etc than those who don't
Didn't we have balloons at spurs a few years ago and wasn't the spurs fans impressed?
It's funny how people go to a football match and all they worry about what the other teams fans think of us..... More balloons I say.. Let the kids enjoy it and some adults too.

The FA Cup was traditionally always a bit more flamboyant than your usual bread and butter games, and gave a good excuse for a bit of extra colour. Sort of Bank Holiday atmosphere.
Remember those tin-foil replica FA Cup trophies, or the elaborate top hats that people used to make specially for the day ? On FA Cup Final day itself, part of the fun was spotting the banners that fans had created which were often quite funny.
