Think of it as an opportunity to convert him from the dark side. It is a noble effort to bring civilisation to the savages. Talk to him about joys of being blue and white. The character building opportunities possible with supporting the lads in a temporary open air athletics stadium, the constant last second shipping of needless goals, the inevitable calls for players to be banished, managers to be fired and Duck Tight to be hanged after a three draws on the trot. The joy of logging onto a message board frequented by comrades dedicated to the pursuit of nonsensical banter. The immense joys of splashing big cash in January windows only to be dashed on the rocks of seeing your best players leave to raise even more than you spent. The valor of the march to a new permanent home in the countryside, soon to be home to 20 or so pikey caravans as the inevitably worsening credit crunch finally knees our collective dreams in the nuts. The highs and lows of the JPT trophy, the romance of early FA Cup encounters with Blue Square wannabes.

How can he refuse a chance to be part of this tribe?

Ask him if he remembers Ron Challis.

Im suprised nobody has asked but is it just a dinner party or will there be copious amounts of inter club swinging ?

In summary, you need to be on best behaviour for your Mrs but it is likely football banter will be on the agenda.
Speak about how good a manager Steve Coppell is and go from there.
I used to live in a flat next door to a Palace fan, we didn't get on that well, but he bought me the play off final programme v Bristol City 3 days before the game as his Mum worked for the distribution company. Top Gesture.
He maybe a sound bloke!!!!! Good luck and post back on how it goes.

Try to reach out with hands across the ocean by trowling some orange slap on and dragging your knuckles around, while discussing the oh-so-shocking falling property prices on caravans these days.

Failing that, butt the cunt around the room for 20 minutes.

Again thanks for all the advice. I think I will wear my BHA badge on my suite and see how he responds. Hope his got a sense of humour. He is looking forward to meeting me for some apparent reason :)

Show him that you are above all the Albion/Palace rivalry, and talk to him as you would any other guy who happens to be your wife's boss. If he refers to the team you support, smile politely and change the subject. There are more important things than the differences between the football teams you support.
Then, when he goes to the toilet, follow him and beat the living shit out of him! :lolol:
