It's all relative really. We have our aims,ambitions and hopes as do all other supporters of other clubs, albeit at different levels. But who would be the happier fans? Us, 'cause we finished 4th from bottom or others whose clubs have maybe not quite reached their targets but nonetheless have achieved more than we,as Palace fans,could only ever dream of. We have had a fair few matches where we have stood as one in a sea of fraught emotion with our future very much in doubt,where had it not gone in our favour,we would be travelling to places no-where near as glamourous as Stamford Bridge etc. then posters like Chelski would probably not grace our boards in debate today. We may be little Palace but we will grab any small positives and guard them as if they were The Crown Jewels. Ollie's Dad,Ash.

All that aside Chelski, i thought we did well on Saturday , and with some sharper finishing could have got something from the game. Your view ?


Yes I agree. I thought you were actually unlucky not to get something out of the game. We lack the finisher to kill teams off but that said, you had good opportunities that were wasted


Is that the kind of "support" you normally get for your home games?

I think I heard your fans sing 2 or 3 songs all game whereas we carried on till the end.

Is is embarrassing your own manager clapped us away fans but didn't bother with the home fans?


None of the above. I'd be the first to accept that the atmosphere when we play the small teams isnt often good. We are expected to win and having experienced so many big games at the bridge playing palace isnt a big motivation for many fans. Of course for you it was a massive game! Atmosphere varies depending on the team and stature of the match. I am sure if you were to play your equivalent, of say, grimsby the atmosphere wouldnt be great either LOL

Edited by chelski (16 Dec 2013 2.08pm)

Neither is the atmosphere when you play big teams. Not a massive game for us, why would it be? Just a local game, really.

Mourinho said it himself, the support in the ground isn't good. If you just go to matches with the expectation of winning, I feel sorry for you. Going to football isn't all about winning, it's the camaraderie between supporters, meeting up with mates and sharing the experience, not just trophies and wins. I'd rather be on the rollercoaster that is Crystal Palace rather than the soulless club that is Chelsea. Whatever way you dress it up, the club has lost it's soul, and without that, football is pretty pointless.


Oh and we havent been on a roller coaster!! Give me a break!!! What at utter load of nonsense. You dont think we all meet up, home and away, have a laugh, drink, sing????
Honestly you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. Go chat about something else because you no nothing about Chelsea.
Of course football isnt all about winning, but winning does actually make it more enjoyable!! Suppose you dont care if you win or lose?
As for sharing experiences, you'll never appreciate or experience the following:
Barcelona away (2012 and 2006 Champions league)
FA Cup finals (sorry too many to say)
Munich (2012) - you know the Champions league final
Stutgart 1998 - cup winners cup final
Oh there are LOTS more but no space.

Ever been to a game where the majority of people around you are so emotional that they were crying because your team won??

Winning all the time certainly doesn't make football more enjoyable. I discovered that last year when our atmosphere's suffered when we were winning and scoring tonnes. Came out of games not feeling all that good because I was disappointed in our Atmosphere, but also because I got used to winning and no longer felt the same relief when we scored or came away with a result.

As to the things you mention, I doubt they were any better than:

Wembley last year

The Amex in the playoffs last year (as a club without any proper rivals, you won't ever appreciate a night like that)

Hillsborough 2010 (unlikely you can have been to a game as important to you as this was to us)

Protests at LLoyds and Selhurst (Knowing your club has been saved is better than any game)

And there are plenty more

It's all relative. And for you, success must feel alot less novel than it does for us.

And yes, I've been to games where everyone around me cried


Success is also a relative term. I agree that those ocassions must have been just as emotional as the ones I described. I dont doubt that as fellow football fans you have all expierenced the same emotion as myself (albeit in different matches and different ocassions). However, the point that has been constantly made, falsely, is that at Chelsea we dont have any soul or emotion and that those things have disappeared. Thats just isnt true at all, as I pointed out.

Not a massive game at all. It's more a game where we expect nothing due to the distortion from the top to the bottom of the league which has been caused largely the dirty money brought in by your owner, and of course all the mega cash from other owners.

Our massive games this season are against our relegation rivals and as a club with a relatively low % of deluded supporters, we all know this is true.


The money (dont accept the dirty money nonsense) from our owner undoubtedly started the process but now we generate huge amounts of money ourselves. This grows yearly and puts us presently 5th in the money stakes world wide(as mentioned in an earlier posting). Like all businesses you have to invest initially and make loses before you see the profits of your investment.
That investment has made us successful in every aspect of our club.


I wouldn't call your level of support and noise successful .
Embarrassing more like.


LOL never heard noise level at games being measured as success or failure. I thought that was measured by success on the field. And actually I have been to many games where the support is fantastic.
Mind you I suppose you need to measure success that way seeing as you dont succeed in any other categories.


You said the investment has made Chelsea successful in every aspect of the club.
Well it's f***ed your atmosphere since you had beard face turn up and chuck his money into a black hole.
Like it or not your fans were completely out sung baited and embarrassed by Palace fans on Saturday .
....you keep coming back,are we your bestest 2nd team now?
Zzzzzzzz


zzzzzz what was the score by the way?? Just asking as thats a measure of success isnt it?


Congratulations you must be so proud ?
You beat us because you spent millions on better players,your bench was ridiculous.
I walked away feeling proud ,listening to your lot whinging about The manager players and your support.

 


The world was a mess but his hair was perfect!

That statement tells me all I need to know about what Chelsea has become. I'm motivated to watch as many games palace play as I can. I don't select - I'm a fan and if my team are playing I will do my best to watch them. You also assume Chelsea away is a "massive game" for us. Why is that - because you're the mighty Chelsea? Not for me - you simply don't have the heritage of a Liverpool or Man Utd. You've got some great players and RA money has brought you success in recent years but, and I don't mean to be rude, you don't have any class. Our massive games are those we feel we can win to stay in this league.

Of course Chelsea away is a massive game for you. In fact a few seasons ago OVER 20000 turned up at your place for a pre-season friendly against, predominantly, our B team. That was your third biggest attendance for that season!!!!! LOL
No class?!?!? Well it was a pretty classy thing to play that friendly and give you the money because you were up 's***-creek without a paddle'. No heritage?!?! Werent our two teams founded in the same year??
Oh dear, someone else who speaks before they think!!

I think you're missing the point. I went to Chelsea because Palace were playing, not because it was Chelsea. That's why I've also just bought tickets to Villa away, and why I went to Stoke earlier in the season. It's why I have a season ticket instead of picking and choosing the games I like - I couldn't give a s*** who we're playing (let alone some wannabe glamour club who thinks paying a few blokes to wave flags a bit constitutes an atmosphere), I just want to watch Palace. Therein lies the difference between the two fan bases.

We are fans, you are customers. We are supporters, you are observers. I would quite happily end up back I'm the Championship if it meant we didn't end up like you, a Russian Oligarch's plaything with no soul.

All that aside Chelski, i thought we did well on Saturday , and with some sharper finishing could have got something from the game. Your view ?


Yes I agree. I thought you were actually unlucky not to get something out of the game. We lack the finisher to kill teams off but that said, you had good opportunities that were wasted


Is that the kind of "support" you normally get for your home games?

I think I heard your fans sing 2 or 3 songs all game whereas we carried on till the end.

Is is embarrassing your own manager clapped us away fans but didn't bother with the home fans?


None of the above. I'd be the first to accept that the atmosphere when we play the small teams isnt often good. We are expected to win and having experienced so many big games at the bridge playing palace isnt a big motivation for many fans. Of course for you it was a massive game! Atmosphere varies depending on the team and stature of the match. I am sure if you were to play your equivalent, of say, grimsby the atmosphere wouldnt be great either LOL

That statement tells me all I need to know about what Chelsea has become. I'm motivated to watch as many games palace play as I can. I don't select - I'm a fan and if my team are playing I will do my best to watch them. You also assume Chelsea away is a "massive game" for us. Why is that - because you're the mighty Chelsea? Not for me - you simply don't have the heritage of a Liverpool or Man Utd. You've got some great players and RA money has brought you success in recent years but, and I don't mean to be rude, you don't have any class. Our massive games are those we feel we can win to stay in this league.


Of course Chelsea away is a massive game for you. In fact a few seasons ago OVER 20000 turned up at your place for a pre-season friendly against, predominantly, our B team. That was your third biggest attendance for that season!!!!! LOL
No class?!?!? Well it was a pretty classy thing to play that friendly and give you the money because you were up 's***-creek without a paddle'. No heritage?!?! Werent our two teams founded in the same year??
Oh dear, someone else who speaks before they think!!

I think you're missing the point. I went to Chelsea because Palace were playing, not because it was Chelsea. That's why I've also just bought tickets to Villa away, and why I went to Stoke earlier in the season. It's why I have a season ticket instead of picking and choosing the games I like - I couldn't give a s*** who we're playing (let alone some wannabe glamour club who thinks paying a few blokes to wave flags a bit constitutes an atmosphere), I just want to watch Palace. Therein lies the difference between the two fan bases. REALLY?!?!? You may feel that way but thousands of your fans dont, hence the 20000 that turned up to watch our B team.
We are fans, you are customers. YOU KNOW the millions of Chelsea fans do you?? Give me a break this is the biggest generalisation possible.


Oh and if a rich benefactor arrived at Palace and bought Messi, Ronaldo etc of course Palace fans in their thousands would not go to watch them and wish they were back in the Championship where the 'real' fans are. LOL

Oh dear, someone speaks before they think. That match was at Selhurst - not Chelsea away, so 20,000 fans turned up to watch their team at home play premier league opponents in a friendly. Oh, and our team were up s**t creek so maybe! just maybe! we were turning up to put money in our own clubs pocket and it wouldn't have mattered what premier league team it was? If you had class you would have played the first team. LOL

As the guy above said, we go to support our team, not to join a corporate, boutique audience masquerading as fans.

If a rich benefactor arrived would more Palace fans go? It's impossible to tell - we sell out anyway without one. Sure, more people would probably be interested in us, but these people aren't fans (well, by your standards they are), they are football tourists.

Oh, and millions of Chelsea fans? That is ludicrous. There are perhaps thousands of Chelsea fans. Hundreds of thousands if you include plastic, two-bob fair weather morons such as yourself. Millions? You truly are the most delusional away 'fan' we have had on here in a long time.

Finally, if you gave me a choice between Messi and Ronaldo in a big, soulless stadium full of people who had never heard of the Dave Clark Five, would shout 'come on Wilf' every time Bolasie got the ball (sadly too common at times last year towards the end) and fellow fans such as yourself, I would take the Championship in a heartbeat. The enjoyment I get doesn't come from the success, it comes from the roller coaster ride, and the passion that permeates SE25 every other Saturday, and occasionally Sundays when Murdoch feels like it. Chelsea 'fans' will never understand, but they are missing out on something truly special.
