Today, 16 years we relegated the palice buggers.

What a fantastic day.  If I live another 30 years I am certain this will be in my top five games watching Charlton.

    You assume wrong.

    Surely we’ve had many many better days than this from which we can take pleasure in our performance ?  As someone else said, they’ve been significantly better than us for most of the 16 years since .

    I really wanted us to sign him that summer.

    I remember being at London Bridge station a few years later when we were playing them at home in a night game and charlton were heading in one direction (down) and palace were heading in the other direction and their fans were singing ‘who’s fucking laughing now’ to the same tune...and I realised I was, still, and even more so as their chant made me realise how much it must have still been hurting them...

  • Lets rejoice - we sent Palace down by beating them in a specific game. They have never sent us down. We are the winners.
    Errr, we didn't beat them.
  • Today, 16 years we relegated the palice buggers.

    Move on.

    fair point well made....

    Wow......and just how has relegating them gone for the 2 respective clubs...??  Have they yo-yo'd between the 2nd & 3rd tiers of English football & had to put up with playing in the tin-pot Pizza trophy, whilst we have had 10 years of Premiership football & having full stadiums every week.

    Er, No.

    Really dont get this love of "we sent the Palace down". For me it's been once disaster after another since that day. 

    We stole their manager
    We got relegated
    We got relegated again 
    We got promoted
    We got relegated again
    We got promoted
    We got relegated again.

    Plus shit owner after shit owner (until Sangaard). 

    Be careful for what you wish for.
    F*** 'em!
  • Not having a dig at anyone who still gets a kick out of this game, but Im not going to be bragging to my palace supporting mates about how we relegated them in 2005 when they had nearly 10 years uninterrupted in the prem and an FA cup final appearance since. 
  • In 1905 a group of teenagers formed Charlton Athletic Football Club.

    Thousands of fans have suffered since through a lifetime of misery and torture.

    Be careful what you wish for.

    They still play in a shit hole though.

    Two things worry me about this post.
    1. You have palarse mates. 
    2. You are willing to admit it in public. 
  • A great day..remember going mental when we scored, especially considering the disappointment of conceding the penalty.
    But I agree with others , this has now been superseded by 10 years of crap and worse living in their shadow!
