  • No surprises there, there will forever be in our shadow.
  • They are also two points behind where we were at this stage of last season!
  • ...but as we all know, its where you finish at the end of the season.

    We'll hold you to that - Tweetie Pie!
  • You'll finish with a lower average attendance mate

    We always will be number one in south London

    Unfortunatly for Palace, our attendences are in decline, and have been for several years now. We need something major such as a new owner to make the Selhurst faithful return. However our attendences now have stabilised, and so I see them averaging around the 14k mark.

    Charlton however find themselves at the beginning of the same decline, and you need to quickly get out of division 3. The longer you stay there, the more the fans will dissapear.

    So if you don't go back up soon, not only will Palace still be South Londons number one, but we'll also have the higher attendences.
  • Well Budge this is our 4th season of decline, with two relegations and in need of new owners. But then again, we're all plastic, premiership loving gloryboys aren't we ?? All 16k of us....

    including the ones with the collars of thier tee shirt turned up and dark glasses. ;-0)
  • 14 thousand for an opening, Championship game on a sunny day is horrendous though, isn't it?
  • they keep on telling themselves such rubbish and hoping upon hope but it just aint gonna happen

    they can't even wet their pants at a possible victory over us only to get beat again.

    Well if Charlton are still at the beginning of the decline then we will be in trouble in years to come, last season we consistently attracted more fans to the Valley than Palace did at Selhurst, and now we are doing so in a lower division. I think your boasting is ringing a little hollow...

    Maybe they are above us for the now- but in size and class terms they will forever be spitting our dust. And I will add End of to that as well!

    Sorry pilchard, everything goes in cycles, its not that long Palace were undenyably SL's number one, and Charlton blew us away under Curbs when you were the club most teams aspired to be, unfortunatly Murray has been found out, and you aren't that 'well run club' you were.

    Everything goes in cycles? Well, your support goes on a tandem - if that's what you mean!
  • little spells in the past don't add up to much budgie

    we've spent 25 seasons in the top flight compared to your 13 and have won a trophy which you lot haven't

    let's be honest even wimbledon can claim to more than you lot of stripey nigels

    We're well run enough to go out and buy a player tomorrow.
  • To me, you always were and always will be, that irritating little club from down the road in Croydon.

    ???

    What have you heard then?.

    *Note to self - think before posting......transfer embargo.
  • Said in the guess the Wycombe crowd thread that whatever it was, would be more than Palarse

    What a shower they are!
  • The only bright spot about relegation was knowing we'd still get better crowds than the nigels. But you have got to bear in mind that the majority of our support are forcibly bussed in from gillingham on the promise of seeing wayne rooney.........oh no we're just a lot bigger,and better than palace. What a joke they are

    We've several you could have, you do seem to enjoy Palace old boys, they just don't always seem to work out for you though.

    How did McCarthy and Ambrose get on today?

    There are no ex Palace players in our squad - we've learnt our lesson there.
  • We don't seem to have problems with the players we get from you, they all seem to get on reasonably well, although its a bit early to say for Ambrose, he did well pre season, but picked up a knock. If and when the embargo is lifted, any suggestions? we're a little light up front, so a striker would be handy.

    ha ha ha ........... embargo lifted .......... LOL yeah right ! Seriously though, Simon is doing his best based on his "cost saving" return to the UK yesterday. A few more penny savers and he might even have enough to get Neil Shipperley out of retirement for you.

    Ambrose, a knock? Surely not.

    You better hope that Jordan pays his bills in the next 3 weeks otherwise it will be too late to get anyone in. Sears is a gamble, Lee is rubbish, John will be out for 6 weeks and Moses is off.

    You can have Fleetwood if you like.

    As we're mates.

    Great example of subject changing to avoid the point there.

    difficult to have a go at how murray runs our club with a transfer embargo going on at your own.

    LOL....

    I love it...

    Ah Budgie, delightful to have you back old chap. I would still even now rather have the "found Out" Richard Murray than the repulsive sleazy attention seeking Simon Jordan any day of any week. So we were bollocks last year and got relegated, there is no one on here who would argue that we deserved any other fate than that, Palace hardly set the earth on fire either and had a distinctly mundane season, could be that way again perhaps.
    What do Palace have to show for their supposed time as South London's number one?? By my reckoning since they first hit the top division 40 odd years ago they have never managed to stick around for very long, so Palace's succesful period was 1989 to 1993, four whole years of being a reasonably decent side with a decent stike force, since then they have made the odd guest appearance at the top table and always for 1 season at a time delivering little and being quickly forgotten about. So Charlton are below Palace for now- just look at it as a your little moment to shine because you have waited so timidly for it all these years, we will be back to spank you again very soon, welcome back to your favourite website!(sorry to hear about Darren's little knock)

    What has been "found out" about Richard Murray? Next time you go to the Valley take a look around you, the ground is and will be a lasting monument to his achievements. It is Simon Jordan who has been found out - after making a fortune on selling mobile phones his ego wouldn't let him rest and enjoy his wealth in anonymity and what better to buy a football club? Except that little dream has turned sour and is getting sourer by the day.

    Maybe Richard Murray isn't as wealthy as Jordan is, or was, but he has the one thing that Simon Jordan can only dream about and which money can't buy - class.
  • The Super Hoops also managed a massive 14,000 gate for their first home game. Coventry are live now against Ipswich and that looks a poor crowd too.
