Palarse Carling Cup Semi final

[Falkor]

Nope. It goes to a tribunal if you've signed a pro contract (Clyne has). The only time it doesn't go to a tribunal is if they're under 16 and haven't signed a pro contract.

We're expecting £2m plus add ons at tribunal, which isn't too bad. On a five year contract he'd go for four times that though

Is that with the new rules this season.

By your own 'Ultras' admission

Whom? We don't have 'Ultras'. That sounds like some American shit, like calling your team 'Eagles' because you think it sounds tough.

they took it off Palace

I asked "Can you name one song that we've copied, that started at Crystal Palace?" knowing that you couldn't. Your 'we love you' chant started abroad and arrived at other clubs in England before you joined in.

You were in complete awe of us at your gaff last September.

I was at the game and barely heard your lot all night. Partly because I was sitting closer to the North stand. Albion fans who sat closer to the away end heard more from the Palace fans, but they certainly weren't impressive.

Thread's/comments after the game.."Why can't we sing it like they them?"

They them? Sounds like you're quoting an illiterate Palace fan. What you would find is that many Brighton fans don't like that song, and would rather leave it for the like of Palace to sing. But don't get confused into thinking it's somehow your song, plenty of others sang it before you.

And if your Millwall quotes are anything like your Brighton quotes, they're miss-quotes.

Oh come on don't be like that. I was just popping in to remind you all to have the record button ready when you're watching our Cup Semi-Final tomorrow night. You might like some of our songs, that's all. Cheer up, Lewis Dunk might stay after all.

What songs? Of 20 morons behind the goal banging a drum?

Wow, don't all rush lads...

Palace website on day on the semi - final still have over 1,000 tickets to sell to home supporters. They are proudly boasting that two of their stands are complete sell outs.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

I believe so, but nevermind because the might Palace have claimed it their own.

Let's face it, they haven't got much else to claim. Desperation springs to mind.

 

[Falkor]

Internet's gone down going to miss it using phone as a hard drive at the moment, but that will kill my usage watching a match on it.

Home tickets sold out last week. 1000 restricted view tickets went on sale yesterday. They have had less than a day to sell restricted view tickets.

Brighton vs Boston

Withdean Stadium
Attendance: 2107

Apart from one of the best academies in the country and 35 consecutive years in the top two divisions?

 

[Glenn-Murray]

Is that with the new rules this season.

The new rules don't affect anyone over 16 at Palace. They are required to sign a pro contract when joining the academy meaning all our players will still go to tribunal.

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

Apart from one of the best academies in the country and 35 consecutive years in the top two divisions?

Yes,i am sure that's why just about every fan from just about every other football club in the land is wishing to God that they were a Palace fan.



Or not.

Congratulations! (Well, apart from the fact that you have to put up with restricted views). But why have you shown the attendance for an old Brighton game? Firstly it wasn't a semi-final (can't believe you're trying to compare the two), and secondly it shows how far we've come - which is rather the point we've been banging on about.

 

[Wozza]

35 consecutive years in the top two divisions?

Is the club presenting itself with a special badge for that?

 

[CHAPPERS]

So Palace fans are still chirping on about their excellent academy and ignoring the fact that it was paid for (amongst other things) with money they didn't actually have?

Fans paying off the St John Ambulance because the club f***ed itself twice? Sickening really.

 

[Glenn-Murray]

No. It's an achievement in itself. Not many clubs can claim to have a similar record.

Re. The Brighton pitiful attendance, it's rather funny that you got 2000 fans for a home game and you mock a club that averages 16000 and gets above 20/21k a few times a season. The fact that you've now got a new ground doesn't mask the fact that for the past two decades you've had hardly any support. Don't take the piss out of 15,000 Palace fans going to watch a match in November on a freezing Monday night when the game in sky, when you weren't selling out a 7000 seater "stadium".

But the point is its a bloody Cup semi final mate, come on should have been sold out in a day 2 at the most, even Wigan would have done that

The club would have paid the small sum had the fans not done it first. 2010 have said that they wouldn't have allowed them to go unpaid.

The academy was paid for by Simon Jordan. The only person who lost money on the academy was Simon Jordan, all people involved with the academy were paid before administration began. The youth system was the best thing tangoman did for the club.

What it really shows is that in your clubs real hour of need none of you were arsed to turn up and support your club, now you are in the Championship with a new Tin Shed you are all glory hunting plastics lol

Sorry mate, they wouldn't have done. Selling 26,000 tickets for a semi final in January on a Tuesday night that is on Sky isn't easy, especially when Cardiff only sold half their allocation. Our tickets sold out after a week, the last 1000 restricted view seats only went on sale yesterday.

One hundred and ninety two post's on north stand chat.

SSN reporting that some of the palace players have a virus. Maybe it's stupidity spread by the fans?

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Due to the amount of Tottenham plastics that frequent the home stands at crumbling Shithurst Park CPFC2010 have produced this special commemorative shirt for the cup semi final tonight. It will be on sale at the club shop until kick off tonight and in the Sainsburys in the ground until Monday (200 nectar points for every purchase which gives 80% off a home match ticket at Shithurst, providing that match isn't already covered by the usual Groupon deal).
