Palace in Sussex
Biggest game in the CCC tomorrow and I predict another commandable performance by Palace and come out 2-1 winners. Bring it on Leeds..........

Oceanic said:And I really hope Leeds take you to the cleaners, really hope you lose the play-offs. It would be a travesty if Palarse got promoted and that Muppet Jordan got his hands on another £25 million, at that rate, then he could make Nodes an offer for shithurst and we wouldn't want that would we but the reverse. Nodes sells the ground to property developers and you ground share with Brentford for the foreseeable future. Now that would make me a very happy man indeed.

The Laughing Bluebird said:Why's that, Starry? Are there restrictions in place for Leeds fans for this game? If so, have you had to put up with any similar restrictions anywhere else (apart from Cardiff) this season?
Starry said:Apparently so. No beer in the ground because the police said we cannot be trusted and they were trying to close the pubs from 12noon til 6pm but I am not sure what happened with that. We are very rarely served beer in the ground though. I can count on the fingers of one hand the grounds that has served this season.
We almost always have the pubs shut post game where ever we go, not so much pre game though it has happened a few times. It will be totally dry at Hull as well.
edit - I think the Palace restrictions have a lot to do with the amount of trouble there was the last time we played there.
Same here, but if Leeds go up we get more money for Harding.algie said:I hate both clubs with a passion.
The Laughing Bluebird said:No travel restrictions though? I wondered if they were making it a coach-only trip as you've had trouble there before. We've had two of those sort of trips this season - Millwall and Leeds. Previous restrictions of that nature for games at Stoke have now been lifted.
The 'pubs shut, no beer in the ground' routine was commonplace for us too until recently, but we've had no real restrictions to speak of for the last couple of years, apart from games at Leeds, Millwall and West Ham.
Mind you, at least the bars were open at Millwall and Leeds!
This year we were drinking with Palace fans in a pub on the corner of Selhurst Park. It was about 50/50 with Palace and Cardiff (a Brighton fan's worst nightmare.....). That was fine, and the prices were reasoanble enough, but consider yourselves lucky they are shutting the bars in the ground. They were charging our lot £3 for a small plastic bottle of Kronenbourg. And beware the Palace stewards - for some reason they were awful this season. Right bastards to the point where the police had to intervene on several occasions to warn them about their behaviour!
Good luck tomorrow. Hopefully you can do us a favour by beating Palace. And I've got you on my coupon too!
