How far does your dislike of palace go?

I find it interesting that Palace have a rivalry with Brighton when their are other clubs much closer to them, not the case with Brighton until Crawley got into the football league recently. Nothing wrong with it if it's just banter, and it's better than being a Bournemouth fan for example who would like some form of rivalry with another club, but no other club are that bothered with them.

Pantomime hatred for me.

My best mate is a Palace fan and a top bloke. Palace fans are largely decent football fans* as we are...


*especially the ones with a drum and black scarves covering their faces!

Thats a bit over the top. 11 mercenery players from both sides who don't give a damn about the rivalry.

Palace/Millwall is a rivalry similar in intensity to Palace/Brighton.

They don't bother me in the slightest. Why should they? Never understood the ridiculous rivalry and neither has anyone else from outside the two clubs

Yeah, course you do.

Perhaps 'many' was a bit over the top but I certainly know of a fair few that watch Palace but support other teams. I know two Arsensl fans who go to most home matches with their palace mates for instance.

Anyway i'm not having a pop at Palace it's just many fans seem to have this strange notion that Brighton's fanbase is made up of two team fans and that it doesn't happen at Palace. The reality is whilst we may well have a number of fans with shared alligences so do palace as will all other unfashionable clubs outside of top flight elite.

Dislike them a lot, mainly due to their internet tools who infect this forum.

Which is why you really need a couple of locals playing for you. Smile when they lose, like them to be below us, not anxious though..............
