Everyone needs a hobby.
Like I said, I don't understand why they receive so much hate. You say they're 'so bad' at what they do - essentially what they do is support their team, and they're a hell of a lot 'better' at that than many.I kind of agree with you. Personally I think if they want to organise, create noise, displays, then that is a good thing.
The problem with them is, they are SO bad at it.
Is there not a single person in that group with ANY kind of creative flair? You can knock up good design on your phone these days. They seem to be stuck in the days of WH Smith's letrasets.
[MENTION=5252]wigman[/MENTION] was being deliciously ironic - love it!
I fear you've been taken in by the rhetoric of fiction deployed by that lot up the road. Whilst they may be sincere in their beliefs, they are somewhat deluded in thinking that they are the proud defenders of ancient rites, a bastion against the intrusion of a footballing plutocracy, standard-bearers for the one true faith rooted in working-class culture. The Nigelic metanarrative is readily punctured when one considers its enthymemetic weaknesses through a rhetorical deconstruction and postmodern analysis of the phrase 'against modern football'. This is best demonstrated using the following rhetorical syllogism ...
- We don't have a pot to piss in
- Modern football is something we can't afford
- We are therefore against modern football
The assertion of noble values is thus exposed as a fictive veneer concealing the acute social embarrassment of hailing from SE25. The ideological underpinnings of Nigelism are in fact class envy.
It is further noted that the hooded tribe of spotty adolescents readily adopts behaviours quintessentially alien to the working class culture they so desperately profess to cherish. Nigelism does in fact stand condemned by itself.
@Wagman pithily, wittily and cuttingly pulled the pin out of the Nigelic grenade and tossed it back.
For my part, I fear I may have imbibed too deeply this evening and overindulged in a prolix (and lame) parody of the deliciously named critical theorist Homi Bhabha (I wish I had that surname). Forgive me :

Imagine where they would be without the cool ultras.
ALL and I really do mean ALL of the Palace fans I know find them as embarrassing as we do.

Triff.....Stormzy, Akala, Wretch 32 might as well give up
How did you feel about Palace being 10 minutes away from Europe in the FA Cup against 10 men and throwing it away? As a BHA fan I imagine you were ecstatic...
I certainly hope that, after as long in the Premier League as you have had, we are not at your level.All the palaces Fans i know quote again, like seriously if anyone believes that football foundation less bollocks. Depends what you mean. Does every palace fan feel connected to their anti establishment element No. does 99% of palace fans feel they have massively contributed to us being revered for the atmosphere at Selhurst park, of course. You’ll never get it or get to our level so don’t let it bother you so much
Ah. That's a shame. Cover blown by replying using the wrong account.Yeah pretty bad. I would hazard a guess similar to how you may have felt when Wilf turned up at the Amex in the play offs.
Two bob c@nts?
