Will the flags be plastic? If so it's just creating pollution when they are thrown away, to be fair so does a lot of the rubbish sold in the club shop
Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |

I expect it will be like in the section, with varied designs on smaller red and blue flags distributed and some of the bigger designs that have been seen all across the lower and at Wembley in previous seasons mixed in and left around and outside each block for people to wave throughout the game Great for fans having to view through people waving flags in their faces, another childish idea by HF.

Honestly I can understand that perspective, however the banners, unlike others in the fanbase, did not name names and primarily focused on the fact we had lost some of what palace is since reappointing Roy and it had got bad. I wouldn’t call organising a fundraiser to level up the holmesdale “childish”

What happened when you had your hissy fit when you couldn't have your banner up because of the new LED advertising? If you got back to being fans & do what you did(very well), you would find more of the rest of us would be more receptive towards you.

TBF Eagleman I have had my own criticisms of the HF however I quite like this idea and it may be representative of your sentiment. I'd like to get back to the earlier days of a raucous Selhurst and perhaps just my subjective opinion but some furious flag waving wouldn't go amiss, especially if done sensibly so as to not ruin the game experience of others. I'll take an optimistic stance and anything to shake off the fan malaise that came under Roy.
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

I can't disagree with you there Nick & i think you have said what i wanted to say somewhat, whether the hf take any notice of all the other fans(us) remains to be seen.

If you got back to being fans & do what you did(very well), you would find more of the rest of us would be more receptive towards you. This is reasonable, especially the second half I see where you’re coming from. I’ve attached the message, which specifies the “entire” holmesdale, as, presuming all goes to plan, we are involving the entire stand in this project so it “levelling up” the lower and upper. The fund is optional but we all go to selhurst for the same common goal. In terms of not involving the rest of the fanbase we involve the entire fanbase where possible eg Brentford at home (fundraiser) and are completely open to contact online or in person or if anyone who wants to join the singing section. I think this current idea is very promising

We did put the clubs need first and supported the team in an excellent atmosphere against burnley , posted a statement and now continue to work to get the banner back up. It reprends nearly 20 years of support from the entire stand and also the tifos, flags and effort that have gone in. To take it down at the first chance for a few metres of LEDs shows ignorance from the club who use photos of said banner/flags all the time in marketing and also a serious disconnect between the fans and the club

As i said earlier, if you got back doing what made you 'famous' & act as fans, you will get the fan base back onside, to say the club is 'ignorant' shows a lack of respect from you. I will not be donating.

I will not be donating. Donating or not donating is your choice, eagleman. Others have the same choice; some will donate and others won’t/can’t. As long as it is different to other club’s fans who have tried to emulate the HF, I have no problem with one set of supporters trying to get things going.
hats off to palace, they were always gonna be louder, and hate to say it but they were impressive ALL bouncing and singing. |
