Read "Animal Farm" not the video you hide from the wife, then ask the question.


BTW.. in my day it was an English Literature examination where you discussed literary works, comprehension was part of understanding the English Language. Both very useful.

Perhaps revising for and attending theses examinations would have been a good idea, no?

Thank you I may just do that...but in the meantime are you going to provide your view on what a loyal supporter is...or simply pose questions of others that you're uncomfortable in answering yourself?

Hmmm. My view would be a loyal supporter is a person who supports CPFC in some form. This may be like me for over 50 years, someone who has recently seen the light and dropped an affliation to a "big club", or found the club overseas. It is in the heart, not just the physical; and nobody's heart is bigger than another.

Who is greater, the fan who would bite your leg off for a ticket in block B or those who snub anything but block E?

All fair points tbh; so you see all as being equal as far as support goes...which is great.

I guess the real issue is the perception of who will need to make this decision...i.e. the club and what their perception on loyalty is.

It'll be interesting to see whether they'll take the same attitude or place some sort of financial or another tangible 'value' to the term?

… and that is the bit that worries the most, a loyalty card, I can understand for the more money spent on the {club} deserves a "thank you" back. But to go so far as to say one fan is financially more "better" than another "wow".

Might as well auction all seats.

Not crappy display but unsolicited stuff on a seat with a note not a request to join in. I don't remember a "please", perhaps others loyalty is presumed, and not to be withdrawn without HF say so.

That said the 2 peN1s display was literally w@nk.

Theres no winners in this I find it sad actually gutted that its happened.

The HF brought positive always firmly behind the players even when losing and im proud of that im just dreading this to be replaced with moans groans boo's and PALACE PALACE RAH RAH RAH
Players love playing with the crowd fully and firmly behind them good or bad. When getting behind the team when we're playing s***e is the real measure of support....its in the defination

I had you down as younger, Peffers.

TBF I guess that's what they've been doing for years with one seat being more than another, points for access to certain tickets prior to others etc etc

but in this case from a monetary point, the requisite amount has already been spent by someone else on a block E ticket.

It isn't like the HF are saying we buy the ticket and pay the individual affected compensation.

An offer that an individual may or may not take up, but I expect they would be bullied out after a crictal mass has been reached.


Much more likely they want a HF ultra discount on premium tickets.


...and your definition of loyalty?

Ok its a big shame how the HF have reacted they have definatly underestimated the Englishness of CPFC we're not Juve or Roma.

However I can see what they we're hopefully trying to do it's a natural progressing maybe they shkuld have looked at other options or just carried on as they were I really dont understand tbh just gutted.

I understand the HF's support I mean I used to be one of the few travelling supporters going to the likes of Grimsby away and singing the whole 90 minutes supporting a poor Palace side but being proud to support Palace and get behind them no matter what

I am solidly against booing leaving early etc WE'RE SUPPORT YOU EVER MORE!!!
