im so bored of Palace to be honest, I couldnt give a monkeys if we win or lose its where we end at the end of the season that counts
I have many Palace supporting mates and most of the consider Millwall there main rivals, besides they are having a great season too anyway
Many considered them nailed on relegation fodder at the start of the season, they are more than comfortable and flirting with the play offs like us and they are 90 mins from a trip too Wembley so its understandable that there boards lack many Brighton threads
When the game comes around I will start to think about a bit more

I'm bored with the hype as well but knowing palace fans from Croydon and outside, I dont know any that think Millwall are their main rivals. Also having been to Millwall loads of times (live in London), I can promise you they dont think as palace as a main rival. West ham is their concern, and Id say Leeds were more interesting to Millwall than palace. The old school flat cap derby of Millwall is also Charlton. They just dont like palace as they are "not proper London".

It is an age thing-the 4 Palace i know,all regard us as main rival,but their ages are between 30 and 40 still as time goes by things change,that said 40 years of rivalry cannot die overnight,it may have lain dormant for the late 90's early 2000's but it's back and as we are hanging around at this level for a while it will continue imo...

I like the rivalry, but have a good mate who is palace and what is more, someone who I respected hugely as a kid was palace / Surrey CCC, as my family was Brighton /Sussex CCC. He was a lovely man, an ex desert rat, loved to tell a good story and is much missed. You cant dislike people like that, especially over something as trivial as football.

We're not all that different or far apart as some think-support for both clubs,whilst not exclusive in each respective area,does overlap and overlap a considerable distance-bit like Norwich's affair with Ipswich...

Im not ashamed to say that Brighton is the first result i look, end of. Going to the Goldstone from the late 70's leaves you with lots of memories,good and bad. Being at the Den on new years eve was great, but nothing, NOTHING, could beat that feeling in september.
Im sure that a lot of you will play down the importance of the game, but in truth its both our cup finals, to deny it would be futile.
I cant wait for the 31st, rumours are Kelvin Morten is the guest of honour !!!

Must admit this made me laugh. I too look for Palace result first. Just love it when you lose. I'm in my 40's and so the old history is there. No other team comes close to Palace in my dislike - but I do have respect.
Worst result in recent history are losing 5-0 and 3-1 at the Amex. Sickening. But best result was winning 1-0 at Selhurst a few years back. I hope to experience that feeling again on the 31st.
As much as I hate it, I respect the fact that you have been the dominant team over the past 20 years - have to face facts. But I firmly believe that we will now lord it over you for quite some. Bring it on and let the rivalry pass onto younger generations.

With our youngsters coming through and our owners commitment, im sure you wont be lording it for some time yet !!
But i agree,as long as we keep playing each other on a regular basis,the younger fans will get to see the rivalry ( even Gus might !!)

Ha ha, this thread is good entertainment. It is truly remarkable how so many Pala*e fan's find themselves on this board making weak digs and jibes at a set of fans they consider inferior. It's okay chaps, we can understand you're all getting your fake Calvin's in a twist because we are finally climbing out of the shadow!

Brighton vs Palace-Palace Vs Brighton is a fixture to be proud of for both sets of fans....
The contrast in team colours for starters is excellent,so too is the respective names of each..
BRIGHTON AND HOVE ALBION
v
CRYSTAL PALACE
Both have history,good and bad......
Millwall see Westham as main rivals
Charlton are seen by some young Eagles as main rival,perhaps because they helped relegate Palace once -This will be interesting if the Charlton,known by some Palace as "the clowns" win promotion this season.
Brighton's closest club is Crystal Palace although this season Crawley have become the closest...
Palace deep down are pleased we have overcome our problems and have their genuine rival back,fit and well,if a little blooded about the nose from our 1-3 Amex reverse.

You were'nt saying that when you were one point above us...we were "A tin pot club with you above us and always would be"....funny how it has suddenly changed...but agree it is the final standing that counts.
Wow, tensions are pretty high at the moment eh?
The form-book goes out of the window for games like the one on the 31st. In terms of playing staff, I think Palace and us are pretty even- it's going to come down to who wants it more, and that is what worries me.
Hopefully with a player that knows all about the rivalry in AEA back in the side, he will make it known to the other lads just how much this game means to us and we will come away with a result.
