    Club want a sea of blue and white for the home leg.

    I shall loudly and proudly wear a blue and white shirt....... then cover it up under several layers and hide on my train back to London with the Palace fans.

    New Palace kit

    I think the black and green stripes as they are look fine, when worn with the black shorts. It's the lime green shorts that just make the whole thing look terrible. These new Palace kits are alright though - I agree with those above that the away kit looks good apart from the new sponsor...

    would 0-1 be better for us that 1-0 after the first leg ?

    You know, I can't actually disagree with this at all.

    would 0-1 be better for us that 1-0 after the first leg ?

    I do actually understand what you mean. But no. Playing exactly the same game as we would anyway, but being 2 goals better off is clearly a better position to be in. The only upside I can see is that I'll probably be a lot calmer over the weekend if we're 1-0 down than 1-0 up. At 1-0 up I'll...

    Reasons why PALACE are going to Wembley

    More likely than not to miss out..... yep, completely agree. Not denying we're favourites - I'm saying Palace cannot be written off by a long way. I don't see why so many people seem to be thinking that >50% chance = 100% chance.

    Crystal Palace v BHA - Playoff 1st leg - Score Predictor

    0-0. Unbelievable tension in the stands, unbelievably boring football on the pitch as we have Not Conceding as our number 1 priority. I'd take 0-0, too, even though I'd rather we set out to win.

    3 days to go. How is everybody feeling?

    I know what you mean. Draw at Selhurst and we are favourites but I don't think we'll be at risk of relaxing under the impression it's already guaranteed. Come back with a sneaky 1-0 win, and suddenly everybody's bragging about it being certain - and we have a very long/hard fall to Earth if we...

    Reasons why PALACE are going to Wembley

    Palace are 5/4 and people are talking as though they have no chance. "Nuff said"? All that says to me is that Palace have a decent shot at reaching Wembley...

    Reasons why PALACE are going to Wembley

    Actually I do think - particularly on the part of the Albion fans - that overconfidence is a big problem. We are favourites, yes - but we do not have it in the bag. I'm certain Gus will be drilling in to the squad that our superior talent (and that 3-0 at the Amex) do not guarantee we will win...

    Is this semi final the biggest game of your Albion-supporting life?

    True. Winning the cup may have been massive, but in terms of what it will mean for the Albion in the long term, would it have been bigger than promotion? It's not that I forgot it, rather that if we beat Palace then I would say the final is bigger than the 1983 FA Cup Final. Financially it's...

    Is this semi final the biggest game of your Albion-supporting life?

    I think it will be the biggest game(s) that I've actually been too. I'm too young for the '83 final (I was 1, at home with my mother...) and although Hereford was bigger (the biggest game in Albion history IMHO, and bigger than anything that is yet to come - no other game will be responsible for...

    Small number of Palace tickets on sale in 1hr....

    3 days to go. How is everybody feeling?

    2 games should suit us fine, and I actually have (almost) no doubt that we will outclass them over 180 minutes. The only thing I'm really worried about is one of them (Zaha?) diving, getting Upson/Bridge/Kuszczak sent-off in the process, then parking the bus and grinding out a 1-0 over the 2...

    London pub for play-off 1st leg..

    I'll come along and join wherever the Albion invasion happens. White Hart works for me, but central would do nicely too. Will keep an eye on this thread.......

    Palace..............it's pay back time!!!!

    If anything needs 'paying back', it's the recent 3-0 win at the Amex that we've released an unnecessary amount of merchandise celebrating! That will all go to waste now - either they've got the bragging rights back, or we've something even bigger to celebrate. Having said that, we are obviously...

    So, Palace then...

    I'd rather be at home second leg, even if just in case we go to extra time.

    1475

    Indeed - 1901 club + 1 away game gets you across the 1,260 threshold - surprised there aren't more of them. Great news though for me, being stuck on 1,230...

    Palace away tickets!

    I'm on 1230 and hoping I can squeeze in....... :(

    Would you rather see Palace blow out of the play-offs in play them?

    Can I change my mind? I voted that I'd rather they fall out of the play-offs... but then realised that means we'll have to play either Bolton, Forest or Leicester instead. Bolton I'd probably take - I don't fancy taking on either of the other two though and Palace would probably give us the...

    On a scale of 1-10 how excited are you?

    I am SCARED and it is overwhelming my excitement. Where does that count on the scale? I'm quite confident we can out-play anyone we come up against in the semi-finals (i.e. Palace or Bolton), but I can't get Swindon 2004 out of my head. Let's be honest - we absolutely MUGGED them after they...
