Would you swap our season for theirs? Would you take getting thumped 4-1 by them, them spending a week top of the league and them playing a season in Europe - the first and only in both clubs history - including trips to Marseilles, Amstersam, Athens and Rome with wins against all four...

Are the palace fans still waving their bed sheets in protest at their matches? no shared vision, no structured plan. Parrish out. Yanks out. Is that still a thing for them or has getting a new manager, getting their best players back and winning a few games suddenly convinced them that...

40m for guehi sounds quite cheap to me. Does he have a release clause? Contract running out?

I know. But unlike dougie my post wint be going anywhere so it'll be waiting for them whenever they return.

If it's anything like the impact of the last three he'll probably have us challenging for the league title. Which will be nice.

I guess it depends on what you/we consider continuing to progress. No club of our size is going to be able to consistently challenge the top 6 let alone the top four or for the title so with that in mind there's clearly a limit to upward league position progression and I think we're pretty...

Yeah. I know that if the shoe was on the other foot and Brighton had a group of fans like that I'd be both angry and embarrassed that they were seen as the face of my club. I wonder if they have any real affiliation with Palace (or football)at all or were just a group of people who liked the...

Oh yes! Another serious and sternly worded letter by the biggest bell ends in British football. I love their pomposity and incredible lack of self awareness. Every. Single. Time. It's got to the point that I can't believe that they're actually palace fans. Surely they're some elaborate prank?

Seems like you could have a lovely day in London on 7th March. Have an earlyish lunch then head to the bluestocking event. That finishes at 2 so you could do some sightseeing for a few hours before heading to the enthralling Fraternite talk. That finishes at 7:30 so what would really top off...

Not sure which is the best thread to put this but I hope Roy is o.k. It's difficult not to think that his ill health has been caused by the strain/stress of the last few weeks but hopefully it's just exhaustion rather than anything too serious. I've enjoyed laughing at the state of Palace...

The right back is quoted as saying: "It’s a pleasure for me to be here at such a historic club as Crystal Palace." Historic is a strange choice of words for Palace, seeing as there is nothing historic about them. I wonder if they've actually been telling him that made up bollocks about them...

Console yourself that if they do manage to win they'll be loving it as it is the only thing they'll have to comfort themselves. They can bask in winning their cup final while we move on with our business. It's a bit like when we were going through hell and they were bouncing between the top...

What a load of laughable bollocks. Forget the players like Webster and Moder who are current first team squad players, forget Mwepu who had to retire due to a heart issue, forget the many players that were part of earlier squads that stayed up in this division, forget all the young players who...

It's kind of sweet that Palace cling desperately to the delusional view that our fan base is plastic and there's is some kind of gritty, real, admirable and special fan base. They went from 17,000 to 24,000 when they got promoted. That's an increase of about 40% Same stadium. Whatever could...

That is the sensible response but I'm pretty sure it's one that will be drowned out by the two extreme opposing views. What would you consider a decent price for him now he's only got a year left? I reckon 25-30m would be a good deal. He's an attacking player who has added end product over...

With a year left on his contract I wonder what an offer too good for Palace to refuse would look like. 20m? 30? 40? I expect him to sign a new contract over the coming weeks but just imagine if he didn't. Imagine he got to January without having signed a new deal. I'd really, really enjoy the...

They really are the comedy club that keeps on giving. They're single handedly creating new levels of tinpottery. I was going to call them weapons grade tin pot but that doesn't do it justice. There needs to be a new word for it.

I agree. it's the potential that worries me. If they get their act together they could have a production line of not just premier league quality players but big club quality players. Off the top of my head the following are all from south of the river and not too far from Palace(and none from...

Very true. Which is also why I hope Chelsea maintain their emphasis on their academy. If they let that go to waste there could be a lot of talented people both in terms of structural management and also in coaching who could become available. I'm not holding my breath that at any time soon...

For me it's all about their academy. There is a LOT of talent in south London. If they can successfully tap into that then they're going to be in a really strong position. At the moment that talent is going pretty much everywhere but Palace. If Chelsea's new owner lets the academy side of...
