Typical negativity towards the HF. A sideshow? Really? They spend more time, money, dedication than half the tools on this site and for a far more positive and lasting outcome. When people talk about palace, the first thing they speak of is the fans. Is that you Hoof? Are you chucking out thousands of pounds and hours a season planning and preparing displays? Nah mate, you're on here being an absolute helmet.

You can't beat a constructive argument

I think what the HF do is generally very positive.

Generally, their behaviour is great and add so much to the club and its reputation.

I started supporting Palace on the Holmesdale terrace as a 6 year old in 1963.

Over the years I've invested more time and money in supporting the club than 99% of other fans I would say, but it makes me just a loyal fan.

I don't remember the other Palace fans having a whip round to pay for my trip to Southend to watch Palace away after work on a friday night and not getting there till half-time due to traffic either.

In that time I've had very few reasons to not watch the action 100% and get behind the team vocally let alone prepare beforehand a ripped up bedsheet with Fabreze or whatever written on it and demonstrate in front of the Holmesdale dressed like a terrorist on a mission.

The HF seem to think they are a mouthpiece for every Palace fan with their crusade against Sky and other political statements.... and they have the cheek to look for donations to fund these "displays" which often look amateurish and embarrassing.

If anyone is a "helmet" it's you for not having the balls to tell the HF that they don't own the right to hijack our home and away games and should stick to singing songs and wearing our actual colours instead of looking like the phantom flan flinger from TISWAS. They could do worse than get in sync with the lads in the Arthur who don't look for overblown gestures or displays and just loyally belt out Palace songs that we can all join in with.

Tools and helmets..... interesting adjectives to describe fellow fans by the way.... what a charmer.

Hopefully if we have a good season and start to climb the table the first thing that people will talk about is the football and not the fans.

I don't think they have the capacity to get the irony of that...

Absolutely spot on.

They are so two faced - they slag off Sky for ruining football, hide their faces because they told their mums that they were going to the pictures with their pocket money, but then hold up a stupid banner saying 'Save Fabric' which was obviously put up for Sky viewers to see because it was held up when a corner was awarded down by them. What the feck has Fabric got to do with football ?

Save Fabric - don't write stupid messages on sheets.

I didn't understand the relevance of saving fabric. Are they into dressmaking as well and is there some kind of shortage?

 


Wife beating may be socially acceptable in Sheffield, but it is a different matter in Cheltenham

They should stick to the footy messages.

I totally agree !!! I don't know what the 'HF' stands for but if there are any 'Holmsdale Fans' amongst them then please be proud to display THAT fact in RED and BLUE, thanks very much.

 


School, SN.Juniors, SN High, Selhurst. 1st match 1972 CP 2 N. Utd 1. Thank you, John Jackson and Vince Hilair for brightening our darkest days. I moved to the west country in 1983. Always Proud and 'Glad All Over' to be a Palace Fan. ))

From what I saw I think they were peed off the cameraman wouldn't film their banner.
I disagree with a lot of posters here.
These are young passionate Palace fans who really turn Selhurst into a caldron of noise.
When I was a youngster, the Homesdale wasn't covered and all the noise from the singers behindd the goal went up into the air.
Stood behind the goal two thirds of the way up where all the singing (and trouble was). It was a fantastic atmosphere.
The real Hard nuts used to go up the White Horse and virtually every game it kicked off up there.
By comparison the Ultras are good as gold.
So I am right behind them and everything they give to the club.

I am right behind everyone that supports our club.

You are right... it was difficult to generate an atmosphere on the Holmesdale terrace when I was young but things improved dramatically when the stand was built and our voices could be heard!

I've seen real "hard nut" battles on the terracing home and away, but that was another era that we don't want back anytime soon thank you.

As I said earlier though I definitely don't want a pseudo political group demonstrating at Selhurst against Sky or anybody else in my name.

I don't know why they can't lobby the FA and Premier League direct if they want change, but leave matchdays alone... chant songs, bang drums, jump up and down... wear rednblue not black.... ENJOY YOURSELVES!

HF with your banners - next home game please can we:
Save English National Opera, then, perhaps, Save The Whale leading up to the merry month of December when they can proclaim Save The Reindeer.
