We’ve seen this few times over the years, or cringeworthy boasts by new owners about becoming a PL Top 4 club.

They were the Team of the 80s weren't they?

Why oh why oh why?
They're talking about when the Franchise moves to Aberdeen, right...?

Well, it was four years ago.

Wonder if the ring fenced shiny new Amex style West Stand will go the same way.
What, re-surface on another club's forum as an afterthought on a dull Sunday evening, you mean?

Not that dull, I just re-arranged my cushions.

Apologies if fixtures, but they’ve been regularly updating the website with all the preparation work gone towards the new stand. For instance, they fixed the holes in the Holmesdale end roof! And...er, they cleaned the toilets?

Fixing the Holmesdale roof
Fans across the Holmesdale Road stand will be better protected against the elements this season and will be relieved to know that extensive work continues to be carried out to repair damage to the roof of the stand, sustained over several years since the stand was installed in 1994. Works are ongoing, so for the time being the stand will have scaffolding in place whilst the works are completed.
Deep clean
The entire stadium has been deep cleaned - every seat, every path, every toilet, every stair. Credit to the cleaners!
My shoulders are genuinely bouncing at that. What a fvcking SHAMBLES of a club. You'd expect that at maybe Macclesfield....but at a club thats been in the Premier League for 7 years ?
Oh my days.

I'm sure the Nigels will be overwhelmed with the improvements, I certainly am.

I always felt like I needed a deep clean whenever I left Selhurst.
Have you ever seen us win there ?

Nope.
My first visit was the Kelvin Morton show (89?). I was also there for the 0-5, and the playoff 1st leg. Maybe another game sometime inbetween, but I've never been there for a win. I think I'm done with it, tbh. Just an awful, awful day out.
Last seasons win was much more fun. I got trashed in a pub. It was BRILLIANT.

Oh, hang on...
...I saw us beat Charlton there once. Codner with the winner, IIRC.

This. I'm quite possibly never going to Selhurst again. Haven't been there for years and really can't be arsed with all the inevitable bollox that goes with it. Much more fun watching it my local.
