    quality......me thinks i'll be 'working from home' that day !!!!
  • what a touch!

    if the clueless handling of the 1st September didn't prove the naivity of the OB this certainly does

    if the police had any decent "advice" it would be on sunday at noon

    shame they don't - all dayer get in!
  • Just booked my day off!

    if it was moved to the sunday instead of the friday, we'd have had to move our midweek game later that week from the tuesday to the wednesday and then have less time to prepare for our watford game tho if it was moved to the sunday?

    lets just play this down a little bit.

    Those that wish to cause trouble will do so if its a friday night or a sunday morning. There will be a massive police presence to stop this happening, and if you're silly enough to get involved with the sentences being thrown about these days, well you're mad.

    For the average fan like me and you, it will simply mean a chance to have a couple of drinks to get into the spirit, and a cracking atmosphere.

    or just worried that the club will read feedback such as this and will push for it to be put back to noon on Sunday, which no one wants.........

    A lot of people finish early on a Friday many drink at lunchtime

    If these mobs want to fight it does not matter what time of day you play the game trouble will happen

    Im sure there will be people booking days of or throwing sickies

    And of course, i hope our club are insisting that any Palace supporter who has so much as passed wind in a football ground, gets THE letter from Croydon OB......

    Oh bugger. The 9th's my birthday, so was going to have a pre-match meal with the family, but that's not going to be a goer if the game's on the evening on the 8th.

    Seems odd. Presumably the OB think that less drinking will take place and also that they can concentrate their forces over a shorter period of time? Set against this presumably would be their spotters will have much more trouble in the dark than during the day?

    I shall force myself to go though. Not one to miss methinks.
  • It's my birthday that day, maybe I'll take a holiday and come over for the weekend. I have to be in the UK around then anyway.

    i guess one thing is that the police will have more man power available on a friday than a saturday.

    The police have received a tip-off that the Palace thugs aren't allowed out after 8pm as they have to be tucked up in bed by 9.30 with their teddy bears and a cup of cocoa.

    B*gger. We booked our flights yesterday - arriving at Gatwick at 6.15pm on the Friday. That is going to be tight if not impossible!!! Why is there not more consideration for long-distance fans??? Oi Henry,sort it out, please! Sat or Sun lunchtime would have made a lot more sense to me.

    Hey Weegie - that will be great timing coming up on the train from Gatwick with the Nigels!

    I think if the choice was made to supporters between a Friday night, or a Sunday lunchtime, the vast majority would prefer the Friday night. In my opinion.
