This is an interesting read.
The rivalry is IMO more Brighton against palace as there were many many years Charlton were seen as the local rivalry by folks in there 40s now, I am late 50s so look at Brighton as rivals but TBH I am all a little meh with hating a team and fans that I live locally...
Can I just say although Rivals I love and have loved seeing the demise of Man U. So I will give you that thumping ( because that what it was) with good grace. I was sorry you eased of as I was hoping for 6 or 7 :)
I am two bottles of red down now, but mum was a champion swimmer and dad was a champion ship diver they met I south Norwood swimming baths. Each had no interest in football, tacking me to football ( first game v stoke) was boring to them but has been a life long love to me. Thank you mum xx
I will thanks.
When mum and dad got married they lived in manor road south Norwood. As a kid I saw the lights glow at Selhurst park at night, and in 1972 they took me to see my first game even though they had no intrest in football.
That’s why we all love our clubs.
I lost my dear mum today aged 88, her first memory was sitting on her dads shoulder and seeing the glow of the Crystal Palace burn down…RIP mum and all your great memories and stories.
It had been expected but is still a shock.
Well it could be said that if teams like palace and Brighton have a good player like say white, they are only there for a season, yes you get money for them but we are loaning them for the whatever bigger club comes in for them.
I love any player pulls on a palace shirt and gives his all, but...
I am not getting involved in the Willy waving our academy is better than yours type stuff.
But the bit in bold…I would say palace are catching up with Brighton on the playing style and academy front, as a middling table team we could see that we could not keep up the firefighting to stay up ...
No I can’t say it really bothers me that TBH. But looking there are many many years we did not play each other because palace were in higher divisions.
That’s an interesting question so I googled it, never in the top league , but what was quite interesting and I could be wrong but we have only played each other 14 times in the top league.
TBF he scored 17 goals in his first season to help palace stay up.
He plays a different role these days of holding the ball up and bringing other players in to the game. I can’t say his a success but that beautiful goal in the 90 th minute at the AMEX will stay in the memory 😁
This is more like cut the crap should have sounded like, all tracks have been re recorded and it sound so much more like the clash mark 2 sounded like live. This song lyrically is up there with the best clash songs.

Christ on a bike have you seen our cultural secretary new tic tok clip… down streaming and tennis pitches and the great British internet’, she looks and sounds coked up to the eye balls.
If someone could load on here for all to see.
On the official palace website last Tuesday before we received the extra 1900.
All tickets for our sold-out FA Cup semi-final against Chelsea have now been posted to supporters.
The final tickets purchased via Ticketmaster and the club were sent first class on Tuesday 12th, meaning every...
Well quite !
I personally thought the starting line up was wrong, but then I wasn’t at training with the players all week so I tend not to overthink it, I can’t say I went to Wembley thinking we would win so just enjoyed the day.
My biggest fear is having to go to Wembley anytime soon , what a...
Firstly anyone throwing a coin should be banned and is a bellend.
But on your second point, why are you saying that palace didn’t sell out ? It’s not true and in your heart of hearts you know that so it’s a silly thing to say.
Palace were allocated 38,000 tickets that sold out, Chelsea were...
