There was a whole host of reasons. How many teams get 30,000 supporters in league 2,1 or even the Championship, That is something you guys always ignore.
Surely we can claim to be started in 1897 if they want to count previous carnations of the club. I'm sure lots of clubs had failed start ups. Bit silly aint it.
They still have to spend a lot of money. They planned to spend £100m on one stand before covid, if they still want the same stand it sounds like it will cost more than that now. The thing is it seems they have the owners who can afford it if they really wanted to.
This summer is a major test...
This is what that article says.
But a Chelsea spokesman said that the empty home seats were held by season ticket holders so had already been paid for, with the only lost revenue being a result of no-shows not spending on food and drinks.
It looks like in that article you have the 6th most...
I agree with this. At the end of it he is asked about his vision for Palace, his reply makes him sound like he is their Tech guy. He is still trying with Benfica. When he talks about the 11am Friday meetings it sounds like the Americans are more like sounding boards and basically the end...
I'm listening to it now, I'm at the point where he says about being at Selhurst twice and the Academy over a dozen times. He basically says he is more interested in the Academy and women team. Hes no Steve Parish (and Steve is no Tony Bloom).
30,000 at the Amex in a league two relegation battle against Crawley would be very impressive and so not how football works even if we like to think its the way we work.
I think our club think the facilities are important, but so is playing as high up the leagues as we can, that is why when I see comments like that, I just tend to think that the person who wrote it doesn't understand how we are run. I most definitely dont think we think the stadium is more...
This comment I have just seen on the BBS
There is a certain club on the south coast who think their ground is more important than points on the board.
Since Tony Bloom took over he has taken us from a relegation battle in league 1 to staying in the top flight for the longest time in our...

He might be giving up on another country.
If 4 comments on a subject constitutes an obsession then may I respectfully suggest you have a bigger problem than I do. I agree that its fantastic that the women are using it. That is why I don't get why your lot are just bigging it up as an Academy and not as a womens training ground (I bet...
I listened to him say it (as an after thought it sounded like). Its just Parish is a P.R man. A day or so ago the fixtures for Euro 2022( in England) were announced, in a season that the biggest TV deal started and you guys have moved your women into a plush new training ground and your club...
Ah so your women team with full time jobs who train 3 evenings a week are going to train permanently in the academy training facility where young boys are also going to be training?
All of a sudden facilities are important? When are you going to take your womens team seriously and give them a training ground to be proud of? For a team always in your shadow you always seem to be a step or two behind us when it comes to off the field things.
Its nice and you should be...
