That's quite right, your grubby little club made sure of that when you TWICE ripped off local businesses and the taxpayer. But keep peddling your delusions with superiority if it makes you feel better.

Did BHAFC pay all their debtors in full in the 90s when you got yourself in trouble?
I thought his autobiography was terrible. I couldn't finish it!

That's because you have not invested anything in infrastructure (if you discount that hideous cladding)
How is the new stadium the Disney prince promised you lot coming along?

I don't think you being debt free is in question, rather how you came to be debt free.

I believe that deals were struck but they were conducted privately. And in any case we have all along said the management were crooked. That's the difference, that and that your debtors were only paid the minimum sum. There is no comparison as you well know, your club owed far more money and enjoyed a protected and elevated status in leagues you couldn't afford to be in. We, however, cut our cloth and were managed well and within our means. Your club, more than any other except Leicester, has cheated it's way to 'success' over the just twenty years. There is no denying that.

Yes you are profiting from your blatant cheating over many years. Well done. It's great to enjoy success with money that wasn't yours.

That's a completely different point to the post I was actually replying to which inferred palace had 'run out of money'.

Yes- you remember that stadium we used to play in, down in Hove? Well- and I imagine this is going to come as news to you- somebody only went and SOLD it without telling us, to pay off the aforementioned debts.
I suppose the alternative would have been to place ourselves in administration (more than once) and rip off all the creditors by paying them a couple of pence in the pound. I wonder where we'd be now if we'd gone down that route? It seems to pay off for some clubs.

Unlike certain other Premier League teams, Palace have no debt to speak of.
The complete lack of contrition over this point.
Wow.
Just wow.

It is a fact that all Palace fans seem unable to remember, that the Goldstone Ground was sold to pay off ALL our debts. Unlike the Palace who didn't own a ground the last time they ripped everyone off.

More than any other club except Leicester? Don't forget that P*rtsm**th actually won a trophy (rather than losing in the final) by buying and paying players with money they didn't have.

Palace have no debt, a crumbling old stadium and train in a field.
Swoon.
Swoon.

1999 and 2010, wasn't it? You ran out of money twice, and ripped off creditors.

Why would I be contrite on here when you lot keep telling me my club has only been in existence since 2010?

Sorry to ruin your fun chaps, but Parish has just been on Twitter and said the story isn't true and there are no plans to sell the club
What statement have the real owners Donner and Blitzen said about the deal, you know the ones who invested to make a fast buck?
If I was a fan I would like to know their take on the claims of the purchase.
