Do you REALLY think you are top of the table material??

[Seagull on the wing]

Hi Bandits. I am personally loving it that you are top and doing so well. Of course, there is an ulterior motive, but I think it's great!
Not knowing much about the lower league's, were you really that good in Div 3 that you thought you would come up and top the table come early September in with the big boys? Oh....maybe that was an unfortunate turn of phrase but there you go. Don't get too excited will you?!
But yet you are doing so well. I can't knock that, but oh how I hope you stay unbeaten (at home) until 27th. After 35+ years of Palace support, it will rank alongside our finest moments if we could get the result and be the first to beat you at your identikit 'stadium'.
I am obviously old enough to remember the tasty encounters we used to have, particularly in the park outside the Gallstone but we all grow up. That doesn't interest me any more. Indeed I am taking my 13 year old to his first Scum away match. I am sure it will be an occasion to remember.
Up the Palace!

Well better than Palace anyway...who you are saying are big boys...and you've only been a fan for 35+...blinking JCLs...and you finish with Up the Palace...I agree with you ,RIGHT up em'.

 

[NMH]

As for the 'Stadium', I obviously haven't been there yet but it certainly looks like the wanky piece of crap I would associate with a club like BHAFC. Give me good old traditional Selhurst any day.

Yes, I will give you selhurst.

You can have selhurst pigsty any day, you filthy stinging cesspit sewage pikey scumbag.

This is the best post on here!!!!!!

Seriously I find it so funny that so many Palace fans are totally shitting themselves that we A. beat them and B. Are a bigger club.

I used to live in that pile of sewage inhabited by vile underclass. I lived in Croyon and hated Palace and the whole scummy London suberb with a passion. So many total, utter, bigoted retards.

I love that we are bigger, better and more classy and way cooler than them and that goes for not just our football club but our city too!!!

Oh year, Palace retards, still not answered how you got 10,000 more plastics in the prem?

The Doog has the lads playing good stuff. Sean Scannell looks the real deal. Wilf Zaha is one of the top young players in the league. Speroni is the best GK in the division. We have also been without Nat Clyne, who IMO is the best RB in this division.

Additionally, Alex Marrow, Mile Jedinak, Kagisho Kikgacoi, Darren Ambrose, Owen Garvan, and Glenn Murray have been short of fitness. Once they all round into fitness, we will have a squad that is deep. It certainly doesn't have the high-profile names of Leicester or West Ham, but they are all more than capable Championship players.

Lots of players with plenty to prove there. I think that Poyet's masterstroke has been signing hungry young players who are well equipped to make the step up. It sounds like Freedman is adopting the same model, plus is showing faith in the youth set up, something we're doing with Dunk, but not being able to do as much as we'd like with Caskey-Forster and Cook because of the change in the number of subs.

I agree, it's good that we're both up there (at least for now). Adds a bit of spice to an already eagerly anticipated fixture.

Keep harping on with this shit and you may not see it on this ocassion! Every time i pass Smelhurst it makes my shit itch, but it does fit in well with surroundings...............

You would have thought that considering you are at least 35 years old, and a father, that you would have grown out of your homophobic bollocks. Do you really hand on heart think you will turn us over that easily? Yes obviously there is a possibility you could win, but I am telling you it won't be easy. Now be a good little eagle and get back in your cage.

Hi Seaweed Steve,
No, I never said I thought it would be easy. I'm sure it won't. But nevertheless, a Palace victory is what I am expecting. How many times do we see it that a small club comes up to the Championship, has a great start but then fades away dramatically? Enter stage BHAFC. I have little doubt you will get found out soon. The point to my post was how great it will be that your bitterest rivals will be the ones to set the ball rolling!!

Christ, if we're a small club with crowds 7k higher than yours what does that make Palace? Microscopic? Miniscule? Crawley Town FC? Think about what you post darling.

Hmmm, the problem is that whilst our team may or not be the best team in this league your lot are inferior in every way. What is so sad is the fact that not one of you has the decency to admit it. And you wonder why we think Palace fans are ignorant ?

 

[essexeagle]

I seem to remember palace fans running like the wind to the sanctuary of Hove station after one of our encounters and having to pick up dustbin lids on the way for protection. Palace aren't a West Ham, Spurs, Millwall or even Charlton , no much smaller. Youv'e got to remember Brighton fans regard Palace as a small South London club, nothing more.

Hmmm, I don't remember too much of that Moronblue but it could have happened. Anyway, that was then and I certainly have no interest in that sort of carry on any more, I now get high on the sweet taste of Palace victory. It will not taste any sweeter than the 27th.

Shouldn't you be out, overcharging some poor pensioner for making a shit job of tarmacing their drive, instead of wasting your time on here.

Hmm, I would suggest a curry instead, that's the only nice taste you'll be getting on the 27th. I just hope our players don't make them selves ill laughing too hard at your team and even more at your fans (those who make it that is).

£20 we beat you out of sight.

And the attendance question STILL remains unanswered...

 

[essexeagle]

A reasonable question from a Palace fan with no unecessary insults or homophobic remarks attached is a pleasant change

Are we top of the table material? Currently yes. In the long run who knows? If we can play consistently with the skill and tactical nous that we displayed at Cardiff then yes. If we can show the resiliance that we showed at Portsmouth then yes again. We will come up against some good sides in good form who will catch us out and Blackpool was a warning about not defending too deep that I thought we seemed to have learned from against Bristol on Saturday when we showed the winners' habit of taking the points against a side set-up specifically to spoil against our style of play and were not firing on all cylinders by any means. We possibly don't score enough goals, particularly at home, to beat sides easily but then we rarely concede many goals either - as the season progresses we may see a few disappointing low score draws. There won't be many games though when we don't get on the scoresheet, especially away from home I suspect when the opposition have to do more to appease their fans. We have some serious attacking talent and, disturbingly for opponents, it is in-depth talent.

Instinctively you would expect Leicester and West Ham to come good. Middlesborough have weathered the storm of last year's inconsistency while Southampton on form score goals for fun and that will stand them in good stead. Ipswich,Forest (despite McLean's protestations) Derby and Hull have all spent so much they must surely come good but will they be consistent enough? Birmingham's foray into Europe may cost them this season although they will be dangerous on a game-by-game basis. All in all I think we could realistically make the play-offs. I would add the usual caveats of course that we will need to maintain our form, introduce some tactical variations (as we were able to at times last season) against sides who set their stall to counter our passing game by pressing high up the pitch, and keep a fit and hungry squad.

That said I would be much more inclined to question whether Palace can maintain their rather surprising but nonetheless excellent start? Palace fans must be thinking they have died and gone to heaven right now but do they have the strength in depth and does their management team have the experience to maintain their form for the long run.

As to the game on 27th, it is one game at the end of the day and whilst the fans buy in to the rivalry I doubt it will have very much effect on the players tbh - we need to be in the same league playing each other regularly for it to start to impact within the clubs themselves and of course we have been down in the dumps more than we have been up for most of the last two decades. Ask me to name which side is more likely to get promoted this particular season though and I have no hesitation in plumping for the Albion. I suspect most Palace fans would realistically agree no matter how much they hate the idea.

A one-off game on the 27th? Maybe a draw wouldn't be the biggest surprise? Plenty of bookings for sure. Lots of rubbish officiating (from one viewpoint or the other). Quite probably not the greatest spectacle. Hopefully no stupidity by fans of either side either in the stadium or outside but the way some people try to stoke-up hatred I wouldn't be too sure of that sadly

Yeah, good post. I don't agree with it all but I'm sure you wouldn't expect me to! The rivalry is back on!!
