Why hate Palace?

74/75 season. We're both chasing promotion. They needed to beat Gillingham in their second to last match to stay in the race. They won 4-0. I remember reading in the Mercury about the jubilant scenes suddenly silenced by the tannoy announcement that we'd beaten Preston 3-1 guaranteeing us the promotion spot. I almost wish I was at Selhurst and not the Valley that night.11

The fact that, since 1861, they have won the "Most Virgins in a Stadium" award every year is what gets me.
They just don't allow any other fanbase a chance.9 -
I've seen hatred consume people. Not worth it. No good for mental health. I've mellowed a bit with age I suppose, life's experiences having altered my perspectives bit.
F***ing hate Brentford though 🤣5 -

I always want Millwall to lose (unless playing Palace) but I don't really hate them.I truly hate everything about the stripey c*nts.That enough for you, Jimmy?

It's a thing and it's because they are not "us".
It has a name; it is called Blason Populaire.
I've posted it before but this paper is actually a good read. https://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/id/eprint/12799/1/489131.pdf
You'll see that CAFC is one of the clubs that gets a mention for facilitating the research.
Also the paper expresses the opinion that "political correctness" is the enemy of blason populaire and might lead to it dying out. I suspect some might think that is a good thing.4 -

My Dad asked me at the dinner table last night why I dislike Palace so much. I realise now he must have been speaking to @jimmymelrose earlier that day. I think @bobmunro has summed it up for me very nicely.4

Give me a black clad choir boy over a wanna be hard man thug , still no one can out Cnut The scum in these matters
Palace 9.8 miles away and takes forever , scum 4.4 miles away … a genuine local rivalry
West Ham and Orient are nearer than your Brighton mates .

Worst five minutes of my life when they took the lead agaainst Man United in the final a few years ago.
Thankfully United equalised and then went on to win it.3 - Sponsored links:

Palace have always struck me as a club in search of an identity. In my youth, their nickname was the Glaziers. A shit nickname but one with some relevance to the club name. A rebrand has led to them now being known as the Eagles. Why? I’ve never noticed the skies of Croydon being darkened by hordes of birds of prey.
They have also changed their club colours multiple times. From claret and blue, to all white, back to claret and blue and then finally ending their current ghastly blue and red. Why? Because they wanted to have the strip as Barcelona!If they ever change or redevelop their ground, you just know they would rebrand it as the “ Stadium of Wonders”, or some other such shite!8 -
Really worried about their FA cup run. Villa on the face of it is tough game but with Villa's champions league campaign I think they may well be very undercooked. Praying they do the business and knock Sainsbury's Superstore FC out.2

I dunno what the fuss is about, I absolutely love palace fans.
Mind you, I do struggle to eat a whole one in one sitting these days.4 -

I've been hating them since the night we beat them 1-0 at the Valley way back in the mid seventies, when we went up that season and they didn't. Malcom Alison and his big mouth, a third division manager that the press loved a quote from no matter how ridiculous.
Ron Nodes is another reason to hate them, he sucked the blood out of our corpse of a club.5 -

The way I see it, it's no skin of my nose if they win the thing, so I'm not worried about it, but I'd rather they didn't, even though my nephews live in deep in Palace territory. Both Gooners 🤣

A wide Wembley pitch will likely play into their hands too.
I make Palace favourites but hope they play badly and get spanked.1 -
