Promoted to the football league today.

Quite the achievement.

Congrats to Sutton, watched the game, to say are physical is putting it mildly, fair play to them.

 

This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.

Is Steve Bangs still playing for them?
I remember going to a pre season friendly maybe 1972 v Chelsea when some Chelsea fans attacked some locals. I remember lots of kids in those parkas with fur lined hoods that could absorb a months rainfall

 

Following Palace since 25 Feb 1978

Big congrats. A huge achievement.

Hope I didn't get a glimpse of the future at the weekend though when watching Lincoln beat Sunderland in the play off semi. Commentator said that 5 years ago Sunderland were in the Premier League and Lincoln were non league.

What odds that 10 years from now we'll be hearing "We're Sutton United, South London is ours"?!

 

Living down here does have some advantages. At least you can see them cry.

Warmest congratulations to Sutton Utd.

Co-commentator Efan Ekoku started his senior career at Sutton Utd before leaving for Bournemouth.

I have visited their ground a few times, the last time many years ago.

Palace Old Geezer Flag Midhurst 24 May 21 11.33am Send a Private Message to Palace Old Geezer Add Palace Old Geezer as a friend

I watched Sutton yesterday as well.

Not high quality football, but a good, competitive, old fashioned, rough and tumble game that makes you realise that a game of football doesn't have to be played at the highest level to be fun and exciting to watch.

Seeing the enjoyment on their fans faces told the story.

 

Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.

Whereas Palace is neither played at the highest level or exciting
