Conner Gallagher comes to us on loan for a year…a Chelsea player who wasn’t making it in their first team.
In his year with us he got better and better and helped us to have a much more enjoyable season than the one we are having now.
He ended up in the England squad as he improved so much.
He returned to Chelsea and as far as I am aware always spoke very highly of the Palace fans in his time with us
When he scored against us last year he didn’t celebrate.
So what do some morons do in the ground tonight…they Boo him.
What did he do ? Rub it in their noses by scoring two goals.
So wished we had signed him…was better than anyone on the pitch tonight by a country mile.

You, my friend are a moron.

Everything expected. I don't agree with booing him, but that has nothing to do with him scoring.

OK, he scored two goals, but not the stand out performance. At least, not from my perch in front of the TV.

As far as the booing was concerned, no surprise really and it sounded more like light hearted banter than vicious aggro, oh, and he spells his name with one n.

Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.

i have seen other players, players with more class....being modest when they score against their old club.

Gallagher stomped around like a Brighton fan last night. Like he hated us. All very unsavoury. But hey, that's football. And Chelsea was never a club with any class.

Gallagher, from the Irish-Gaelic 'Gall Cabhair'....meaning foreign or imported helper. Usually loaned from one clan to another. Often referring to mercenaries. Or Gallowglasses...the same 'Gall' prefix. The surname hails from Donegal....Dún na nGal...the Fort of the Foreigners. Mercenary by name, and mercenary by nature.

Conor seems to be from a long line of fellas who would stab you in the back on the orders of his paymaster. Football, just like military affairs, often comes down to money.

Kayla did Anfield & Old Trafford

Never understand booing players that have left. Makes no sense unless they have a pop after going. It always bites teams in the bum as they nearly always score. (Rice).

I thought this thread might be a critique of our managerial, boardroom, recruitment, coaching and medical staff.
