    Could anyone change the title of this thread? Very unpleasant to look at. No wonder they keep scoring goals.... :joy:
  • They"re staying up again. Period.
    I do kinda wish we could bury this thread for 5/10/15 years until we've got something to crow about.
  • it’s not happening move on ....

    It will happen one season but not this one unfortunately no matter how much we want it to

    Honest to god I wish I could ban you from this thread. It’s no fun listening to this over and over again.

    Hope isn’t a dirty word.
  • I had the misfortune of being at Selhurst yesterday. All of their fans are exactly what you’d expect. The stereotypes are spot on. And the songs they sing...you have to see/hear them to believe it.

    Please explain yourself JaShea99,
    Are you a policeman or a crystal ?
    Or did you watch the game in the away end with Fulham mate ?

    Ditto , when you build up fake hope for something that’s not gonna happen just yet .

    I’m putting a more realistic slant on how it’s gonna be and trying to keep your unrealistic hopes in check .

    After the last week they’ve gone from 100% to 85% imo so a very good chance I reckon
    4-1 best price 5th favourites with bookies for promotion .


    Palace are 22-1 best price to get relegated with hudders, Fulham and Cardiff odds on

    Odds mean nothing its all about points.

    You are certain that Palace wont go down they are 4 points above Cardiff.

    You are not certain we will get in the play offs yet we are 7 points above 7th.

    Until its mathmatically impossible Palace could still go down

    Odds are showing the likelihood of it happening or not

    It’s about points and Goal diff and palaces is the best gd of the bottom 8

    Everyone has played same games in bottom 8 of Prem

    In League One 7th spot has two games in hand on us and 1 behind us on GD

    So mathematically Arsenal could win the Premiership but it’s not gonna happen .

    I will say here and now palace are 100% safe imo and £100 to upbeats if they go down
  • Odds mean nothing.

    Leicester won the league remember.

    Again Palace 4 points above 18th(lets say 5 due to goal difference)

    If Doncaster win there games in hand they go above Peterborough so gonna use them as they woupd be 7th

    Peterborough are 5 points behind us, based in your logic they 100% wont finish about us.

    Logically Palace can still go down 2 bad results and results go against them and they are in the relegation zone its as simple as that
  • If Zaha signs for my favourite German team, Brossia Dortmund then he will go from a Tom Daley to a Tony Hawk.

    Zero to Hero.

    You’re asking me my opinion


    Odds are affectively showing the likelihood of something happening so miracles can happen and Leicester was that.
    I’m not saying it’ll be a miracle for the Nigel’s to go down but I genuinely think there is no chance of it happening .


    Of course you only need two teams to get above Charlton and 4 have to get above palace from current positions

    So i think they have a better chance of staying up than us making play offs
    And I’m pretty certain they’ll stay up and we will make play offs


    Be realistic it’s not happening for palace this season , of course we can hope and pray just like we do for the scum to go down and us to make the autos but it’s not happening re palace going down imo

    They look comfortable unfortunately but it won’t happen and I’ll gladly put £100 in the upbeats pot if they do go down , which they won’t .


  • Did Palace copy 'Eagles' from Benfica?
  • Did Palace copy 'Eagles' from Benfica?

    No, when they developed their county rivalry with Brighton they changed it so it rhymed with Seagulls.

    As if you needed another reason to hate them.

    Malcolm Allison had a strong recent record as a coach, having won trophies with Manchester City as an assistant to Joe Mercer. Allison, or 'Big Mal' as he was nicknamed in the press, had a flamboyant personality which was something of a change for the club, who previously had a rather conservative image. "The Glaziers" became "The Eagles" and the club changed its colours from the original claret and sky blue to a red and dark blue scheme inspired by Barcelona. The Eagle was also introduced as the club mascot at this time, an idea borrowed from Benfica, and the club badge was redesigned.

    Can only assume they copied their old away kit from Brazil....a while ago mind. Also someone suggested that another old away kit of theirs was inspired by and old kit of AC Milan's.

    I think it's the other way round, didn't they call themselves Seagulls to take the piss out of Palace's Eagles? Their original nickname was the Dolphins.

    So they could have been called the Beagles then?

    It just strikes me that this thread is for those of us that like to enjoy a bit of hope. I mean... what's the point of a thread where we simply acknowledge Palace's mediocrity week after week?

    It's a thread to enjoy watching them actually suffer, not for hoping that they might suffer. We can all rejoice when they sack their trendy new manager after 4 games or make it nearly all the way to Christmas without scoring a goal at home. There's nothing to gain from deluding ourselves though - there's no way they're going down this year, 4 points from 6 against 2 relegation rivals put the final nail in that.

    Personally think that working out the highly unlikely connotations that might put them in a proper relegation battle makes us look a bit silly when I very much doubt that many of their divvy supporters are worried about relegation, and most of them, along with the other pondlife, are busy thinking about the easy FA Cup draws they've got and how there's a good chance they'll both get to go to Wembley again whilst we're still scrabbling around trying to get out of a division that we should never have set foot in in the first place.

    I'm just gonna pretend they don't exist until they get knocked out.

    Let’s face it, most of them look like this little gimp, so Sméagols seems reasonable to me:

    Some things just leave you speechless, you keep taking a look back to ensure your eyes were not deceiving you but still you are not convinced, after all people can work wonders with Photoshop right?
