Crystal Palace- do you want them to stay up?

[BensGrandad]

I dont care either way as which ever will not affect us greatly only a few deluded supporters.


As the chant goes "Stand up if you hate Palace" and very few stand up.

 

[Seagulltonian]

What's the point in having a rival if you never meet

This!!

It will be nice to renew the rivalry, and time to put these Palace upstarts back in their place!
And undoubtedly two games that will be selected for coverage next season

 

[Magic Sponge]

Would love them to get relegated but not going to happen.

 

[AmexRuislip]

Couldn't give a toss TBH.
Albion getting promotion is all about Albion getting promotion, not on the premise that we'll be playing them up the road.

 

[Hampster Gull]

Down, of course

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

I would like them to stay up. Then I would like BFS to spend vast amounts of money buying over rated mercenaries and pay them even vaster inflated salaries whilst leeching his own vast cut of the deals. I'd like this to continue for several transfer windows until they get relegated in two or three seasons time. Upon arriving in the championship they will thus have a shit squad rammed full of players on six figure weekly salaries who are neither good enough to win promotion nor willing to move on. This should hopefully lead to admin number three and a plummet down the leagues into obscurity.

Fingers crossed...

How can anybody say they don't want to play Palace next year ?! Unreal mentality. They are our rivals, we want to beat them and embarrass them every opportunity we get. The apathy towards this thread and Palace is shocking. Not real Albion fans

I think the first part of your master plan is already happening!

This.

There's no way they are going down, those results v Chelsea, arsenal and Liverpool saw to that.

They are not traditionally our rivals that honour is held by Portsmouth since as long as I can remember the rivalry with Palace was only brought about by our cup games with them during Mullery's time. But them I am not a proper fan and havent been since 1945/6

 

[Geoffbn2]

who really cares ? maybe it'll speed up the next admin and we can all see CPFC2018/ 19 / 20 rise from the ashes and crash through the leagues

Pompey-Southampton
Brighton-Palace

It's not the length of the rivalry, it's the rivalry. This board is infested with dullards.

Yo don't remember any of these games then?

The game at the end is sort of known as the game that started the rivalry as Palace had just come down from the Top Flight,it was first game of the season and they had a large following.

Before then fans for some reason saw Reading and Portsmouth as rivals-in a sense we should be rival-less and insignificant to some respect,for this reason it's a honor (for me personally) that Palace see us as rivals,no matter what one thinks of them..

Edit: one of the first games>? not sure

Are you thinking of August 1974?

 

[GoldWithFalmer]

Are you thinking of August 1974?

Yes,that's the one.... i was only 1 at the time though

I have voted for Palace to go down btw.... although i'm happy to play a few derbies if required.

 

[lawros left foot]

Are you thinking of August 1974?

This is right, it started at this game, at the Goldstone, and on H ove station afterwards.

 

[Return of the Rev]

Why the hell would you want your big rival in another division Any other view would be just spiteful?

 

[Spicy]

Down, down and stay down. I have put up with crap from Palace fans at work for too long so would like to exact some revenge.
