Am on the train back up to London with a load of Palace fans (with tickets) who were penned outside for the game and then escorted straight back onto a train to London. They said a load of fans without tickets rushed the gates early and must have brought in the flares. They were left outside holding their tickets. Shambles.
Its all going off on the BBS. Ticketless fans getting in at the expense of ticketholders, divs letting off bangers (a recurring problem, they did it at Liverpool and Spurs which has directly contributed to their reduced allocation tonight). Fans with tickets kept outside, and then eventually kettled back down to the station at around 9pm.
Palace fans really do take complete BELLENDARY to unscaled heights, even at their own expense. What an embarrassment they are.

Who or what are HF members? Sorry, cant be arsed to trawl their entire thread
either way i think club will be in trouble
1; not securing fire exits/maintaining emergency routes
or
2;not carrying adequate searches to prevent pyro/explosive devices inside a football stadium
both demonstrate lack of due care

I assume the turnstiles are the same in the away end as the home end - ie just a waist-high rollbar that can easily be hurdled, and "rushed" if dozens of mingmongs like Palace get it into their heads that they ARE getting in. A sad indictment, but maybe we need the floor-to-ceiling revolving door cages in the away end to cater for the animals on these occasions when they descend.
The guys in black jackets behind the goal with the Ultras banner. Holmesdale Fanatics.
And after seeing the over-zealous stewarding in ejecting miscreants from the NS for petty offences, the fact that they bottled it and didn't even attempt to eject those with flares and fireworks is most concerning. What if they hadn't been flares? What if Ryan's sight was affected with the smoke?
Hope Barber sacks the cowardly incompetent ******** in the morning
Sorry- but I feel sorry for Palace people with tickets who were probably there just to watch and enjoy the game and couldn't get in.
Apparently Palace supplied most of the away end stewards......
