Padded seats at Selhurst.

I'll remember this post when we have sold out every home game of the season.

I think the Alzheimers will have taken hold by then but good luck with that. Seriously though there are no confirmed finances in place for any of this and I really think that given the current and longstanding financial and economic climate you are going to struggle to even secure a fraction of the required cost despite your chairmans bluster and promises. I truly believe you are stuck at the Selhurst cesspit for the forseeable future and that it is going to be the millstone around your necks that will prevent any real progress for Palace in the next 10-15 years. Palace will be left behind by clubs such as the Albion and will become as they have already started to just another minor London club stumbling from crisis to crisis. You will end up on a par with Orient & Brentford - enjoy.

Just the 2 seasons at the athletics stadium if you are lucky, more likely 3.
It will still be a lot nicer than the withdean so interesting to see how the attendances hold up.

(I'm pretending it will actually go ahead, I'm nice like that)

The funny thing is, CPFC2010 will be basing their finances on the model of Brighton. They'll be thinking that if we had 7,000 turn up, and now we fill 25,000, they should be able to go from 11k to 40. So the mugs will probably spend the cash, thinking they'll get it back, then when the fans don't come they'll just go into administration to pay for it. Wankers.

Are you struck by a sense of irony when posting that? Don't get me wrong, I've not got a chip on my shoulder like a lot of Brighton fans do, but that is rather ironic.

Yes it is, but sometimes to go forward you have to go backwards.

Is this really necessary?

<mod: No, it isn't!>

Yes, it is. Who really cares about this? Surely there should be an away fan section for this kind of stuff.

Hilarious that a Palace fan feels the need to come on here to announce they are putting in a few padded seats for the Directors, not even for their own fans. That might be front page news in Croydon but to the rest of the footballing world it sums up exactly where they are at. Even Crawley did better than that.

To be fair, I read it simply as a tounge-in-cheek post, in response to the work currently being done at the Amex.

Red'n'Blue clearly has a sense of humour, something a lot of Albion fans seem to lack.

Orange kit for us then. :( Grim.
You could have an orange kit to replace your new away kit. I don't mind the home, but your away one is hideous.

Red'n'Blue's sound - isn't like most and constantly go on about 'queers' and anal sex. He's just sharing information and talking to rivals, naught wrong with that.
