I sympathise with anyone in block e who finds it outrageous that they're being asked to give up their long held seats.

That said, does anybody think the atmosphere at premier league football is anything other than abysmal? even with the HF it was awful, just a bit less awful than most other places.

it's something that can destroy the game, if advertisers and TV lose interest as a result.

And if people get so attached to their seats that they're in them until they're 95 years old, then how can atmosphere ever get reinvigorated?

Whether or not this is the solution, nobody seems to have the faintest idea across the top tier of English football how to lift the atmosphere. There are no clever alternatives, just apathy.

If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities.

If we can afford to pay Benteke 120k a week i don't see why the club cant find a solution to move the longstanding fans from block E with a financial incentive.

Here's a nice little brown envelope sweetener. I'd move for a couple of grand

The one argument that pisses me off more than anything in this saga is the one saying “Block E don’t own their seats” as if the Holmesdale Fanatics all of a sudden do.

The board own the seats, and they’ve (rightly) said they don’t deem it as an acceptable reason to move people against their will.

It’s a completely redundant argument and a desperate attempt to vilify a group of Palace supporters, simply on the basis that they may or may not sing as loudly as others.

The HF own an equal amount of sweet f*** all as anyone else does, so it would be great if people could stop punting this desperate line.

We're the Arthur over ere!

Quite right. Next people will be saying the 22 people on the pitch contribute more than the rest of us at a match

What has the HF ever done for us eh? Apart from increase the atmosphere threefold, keep singing all game, got us a reputation as the most passionate ground in the Premier and gained us global notoriety.

I'm sorry but there's only so much implicit slagging off of the common garden non HF Palace fan I can take.

This club will do very well thank you very much with or without fanatics.

I value them but I don't value them any more than anyone else who pays for a ticket and comes to the ground.

Living in Australia, the HF are legends to most EPL fans here wherever team they follow. With them the stadium rocks and helped get us where we are now. A bit of respect wouldn't go a miss.

I don't need to sell my soul...he's already in me.
