Johnny Byrne-The Greatest
why?
Probably because for supporters under the age of 30 there is a lot more history with Orient than there is with Palace.
why?
I don't like them that much but it doesn't come anywhere near the hatred I have for Man Utd - that is REAL hatred.
I suspect there is an age thing going on here...us oldies ahem: I'm 34 btw) probably remember the fights in Hove Park, Hove Station etc and have a reason to dislike them. Our younger followers (through no fault of their own....I blame the parents!) haven't seen many BHA-CP encounters/lived through the hooliganism of the 70's and 80's so may not have a grasp of what was envolved.
i am only 20 but i have a strong dislike for anyone who follows palace. i have read a fair bit of what went on before my time.
add that to the fact they are fairly local, are situated in a f***ing SHITHOLE, their fans are kunts, their owner is a kunt, they are of a reasonable similar standard to us, there is history between us, some of my pals support them (and are kunts), i see more than enough reasons to dislike them.
i will f***ing love it if we go up this year, or even if we stay down and they come down so i can experience going to selhurst and the atmosphere and hatred there.
i will genuinely lose my rag.
Barney, thak Wardy you are not old enough to remember the great old days of the Albion Palace rivalry (it really was quite something), or you might explode with hatred towards them!
Good for you, though, you have summed them up very nicely.
That's how I feel really but as a 42 year old and a "responsible" parent I felt I should try and be mature about it.
Forever and always.
Yet you voted "Devil's Spawn"Ditto Chez.
Also look at all the support Palarse have given REMF over the years
True, the games against them were just fantastic for atmosphere and the result could ruin or make a weekend. Seldom was the football any good and those games we played against them in the Championship brought back to me how great it was to have two derbys a season. Total elation or total depression, a draw always felt like we'd both been cheated.
Hate leeds more, still dislike palace but i dont want to kill them or nothing
to show im not racist
well not kill ... i just have a large dislike for leeds and their nobhead fans
