Advice urgently required

My wife just sold me quite a good story about the couple that she has invited to ours for dinner next sat. I know the girl - she's really cool and he sounded like a nice guy too. Basically all was sounding good to the point where she had me looking forward to it.

Right at the end, she flummoxed me totally by casually announcing that he is a massive palace fan, not just an arm chair supporter (I know a few and some of them are good lads), he is a proper die hard palace man.

Dilemma. Do I wear my stripes and have my albion DVD collection running on loop though the evening or do I behave myself?

Advice needed please....

I'm sure you'll have a lot in common with a proper die hard football fan. Just treat him as you would any proper fan, much rather spend time talking football with a proper fan than an any armchair fan. He will respect you for that as well.

Be really nice to him in a very smug manner ;-)

You'll have some good banter with another real football fan. You will of course have him on the backfoot from the off because our expectations are so far ahead of theirs. Unfortunately you'll have to bite the bullet and accept that Zaha is worth at least 10 times the value of our entire squad.

This

'Where are you hoping to finish this season ?'
'What sort of crowds are you hoping for ?'
'Hear rumour of any signings ?'
'How many do you think Murray will score ? '

I would love every minute of it
