Its a view of an old fashioned football ground that you will be getting, from an old fashioned stand. Make sure you bring your cushions, as there are no padded seats here, just cheap plastic ones. Its apparently one of the worst away days in the country, and really difficult to get to, but its...

But without that sliver of land we cant develop the ground. Work cant start until that is resolved. In 2018, it wasn't going to be a problem, then Sainsburys saw an opportunity to hold us to ransom, and decided the sliver was worth way more than they originally thought. Remind me again how long...

You famously had clappers at the play off semi in an attempt to manufacture an atmosphere for a game you had already won judging by the hotel bookings that had to be cancelled We manage an atmosphere home and away, with or without drums and megaphones Thank God you are BHA

Remind me how long it took after you left the Goldstone to get the Amex fit to play in. Didnt planning permission and compulsory purchase problems affect you for years? Sainsburys playing hardball over a small patch of land that has no value to them is the delay. Hope you enjoy the away fans...

Beats folding up your clappers

So when you win tonight and go top of the league, will that make up for the play off defeat a few years back?

It was far from a battering. We hit the post twice in the 1st 5 minutes, had 2 penalty decisions ignored, and Edouard could have scored 2 when he came on with a better touch. Admittedly the better team one, but we weren't battered. The last time we were truly battered was at the Amex last...

I try to be realistic, and we have history at home to newly promoted teams early in the season

To be fair, we have 4 points more than i thought we would have at this stage. I thought we would get a point against Brentford, but expected us to lose the others I didnt expect you to beat leicester, but other games have gone as I would have guessed. Monday night will be interesting, it will...

Just curious if they were sold why were so many empty? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Looked like a lot of empty seats at the Amex yesterday as well from what the tv showed Not many HF at West Ham yesterday and a few empty seats around me Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Interesting game yesterday. 1st half was a tough watch and tbh could have been further behind at half-time. Playing out from the back kind of worked but we didn’t get it far forward 2nd half was much better and I think we deserved a point as we actually pressed forward and had a go. First goal...

I wouldnt be here much if I only visited after a win :)

Have to say I agree with your priorities, especially the fact that number one priority is to finish above us Obviously, I would prefer the opposite, and if I was offered 17th now, I would take it. (well actually 16th with you in 17th, as I enjoy the rivalry of us being in the same league)

I dont know what the wealth of our owners is, but I do know that they have not invested mega bucks into our club. Parish, Browett, Hoskins and the other one I forget, that bought the club in 2010, were reluctant investors, and supporters first. They always said that they invested as a last...

Any others you would like to remove from the Premier League? What makes Brentford and Fulham so special? Have you been to Craven Cottage? Are you likely to get into Brentford's new ground? Maybe there should be some new criteria for premier league membership. Shiny new ground, tiki taki...

Thanks again for the advice Sheebo. Sorry if you dont like me referring to mr Bloom as a sugar daddy, rather than a billionaire life long fan. You did have a ground, but previous owners sold it from under you. Not sure why I would think we were in your shadow. You may have access to more...

Thanks for the insight Hailsham I would ask for the source of your wisdom, but it would probably be too intellectual for almost all of us :)

OK, I'll bite. I believe that is to cover the entrance from the away dressing rooms that had to be built as part of Covid restrictions. We dont have a sugar daddy to help us fund a new ground, and we now have owners who are trying to look out for the best interests of our club and not spend...

Thanks for the advice Sheebo. I have been Palace since 1976, a div 3 glory hunter when we made it to the semi finals of the FA Cup, so I dont fit that part. What part of our promotion was fortunate? I thought we beat Brighton over 2 legs in the semi finals, and then beet Watford in the final...
