Palace and the armed forces.

Do we have any links with the armed forces? Other teams have members of them on the pitch on armistice day, do we do anything like that? I may have missed it if we do. I know some teams offer them reduced ticket prices, like pensioners/kids get. Millwall are having a plaque put up for Lee Rigby apparently. I remember a thread last year saying that we were one of the only teams in the league that didn’t have a poppy/ club pin badge, from the British legion.

As far as I know we have no links to armed forces... If I’m honest I don’t think we need one do we??.. I’m pretty sure a lot of our supporters contribute to help for heroes etc and have family in the forces or indeed are ex forces themselves.. I’ve seen collections on match days outside the stadium so we do our bit in my opinion. Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!!

We had armed services on the pitch for our Remembrance game and a collection organised by the British Legion. They also auctioned their match worn poppy shirts from games against Chelsea and Leicester City for the Poppy Appeal R.I.P. DJ Hardline CPFC2010
