[Football] Crystal Palace open up Selhurst Park for Emergency Accommodation

[Bry Nylon]

Would you open your doors to drunks, druggies, down and outs and beggars or/ and people down on their luck?. Fair play to them.

Enough about the Palace first team squad. What about the homeless folk?

Odd way to approach the January transfer window but I suppose needs must.

It's one of the lounges that's being used, and it's an emergency shelter as it will only be used when the temperature drops below zero. BBC has more details. Apparently it can take 10, which isn't an awful lot but I suppose not all of the spaces at the stadium are easy to heat etc...

They only need ten as they'll be keeping Zaha in the starting eleven.

This is the third thread on the generous hospitality of the shitehouse massive towards the homeless of their parish. The guesture is good, but its not that good.

10 campbeds in a dilapidated lounge is better than the street so yes - nice gesture.

Great initiative.

Bit unfair to ask the homeless to travel into Selhurst though. They’ve got it bad enough as it is.

Two extracts from the article ....can't help but think there is a link there....or maybe I am just a cynical old git

They will also be given a hot meal, breakfast and washing facilities, said Croydon Council, who helped set it up.

Last year, the council approved plans to increase Selhurst Park's capacity from 25,456 to more than 34,000.
