According to [Link] "Conservative councillor Tony Pearson, a Palace fan and former steward" has asked Croydon Council to stage a town hall reception to celebrate Crystal Palace’s survival in the Premier League.

What do people think? Great idea or what?

Even if it wasn't that Tory tosser why would the club want to let local politicians associate themselves with the clbs success, which is after all want they would like to do? Croydon council has a history of being disinterested in CPFC at best and obstructive at worst. They have blocked development and offered no help in finding a site for relocating.
Any celebrating to be done should take place at Selhurst and Croydon councillors should f*** off.

Any parade should take place at Selhurst or Crystal Palace frankly not Croydon or would all us fans from the other boroughs in London have to have our own private celebration. We are a South London Club not solely from a borough largely in the countryside.
I hate us associating ourselves with Croydon in any way and every time we do we alienate all the fans from the inner London boroughs who frankly have no bond with anything Croydon whatsoever.
Crystal Palace and the building we get our name from is adjacent to 5 London boroughs and with other London teams at a bit of a low ebb we have a great chance to grab a new generation of Palace fans and make big inroads into the inner London Boroughs. The kids from these area's are beginning to take notice so its a big opportunity.
Why jeopardise this by associating ourselves with Croydon in any way. The borough has done absolutely nothing to help the club in any way, objecting to almost every moderate planning application. Islington let Arsenal build the emirates, Croydon wanted us to replace the mainstand with a garden shed.
if we ever have a parade in Croydon i would boycott it frankly and the less we have to do with the place the better. On a survey on the BBS only 14% of Palace fans lived in the borough of Croydon, i know the stadium is there but the Crystal Palace itself is so far north of the borough its not even in it.
