The mountains are calling & I must go. |

Exactly. Storm in a tea cup and precious fans getting offended for no reason. I do agree about the tourists as well. f*** the extra revenue, too many of the daytripping t***s at Palace these days and we need to limit their numbers, not ask for more of them to come! I disagree, these day trippers come along, buy a ticket that is probably at higher rate than the ST, buy a souvenir or two, take a selfie and go home. It's a business and it's about money. Why you think Man U gets so much revenue from shirt sales? What the die hard fans between then buy all the shirts? BS. Dinosaur thinking will only keep us back.
This was once a quality forum.... |

They were of course wrong to post this. So, correct the HF shoudlnt have posted this, but I think I get what they were getting at. This.... Nothing against any one of a particular race or nation but the arthur is becoming a haven for the foreign spectators who neither have any interest or knowledge of the club. To be fair seems bizarre that whilst visiting the UK if you had been remotely following english football since 2016 you would pick our team to watch Despite the above i have huge respect for overseas fans that battle time differences etc to watch games and make the costly trip over.

Gotta welcome any new fans, if they buy a shirt and spread the brand all the better, i for one love to see a palace shirt on my travels and if we want to compete we have to take revenue from anyone we can !

Great to hear everyone's opinions which are in the mostly very positive. I think that at one point or another if we are local or not we have put gone out of our way for this football club. I think even watching them at the moment can be unpleasant at times so fair play to us all. The last time I was at Selhurst I saw a group from Korea come and cheer on Chungy! Personally I thought it was fantastic they came but obviously others think differently. There is a great group of us over in Toronto, Ottawa and Vancouver and a few of us are even planning a trip next year to an away game no matter what division we are in. I personally hope to be back this year for the Burnley game to either say bye to the prem for a while or to celebrate a miracle. Either way I will be excited to be back. In the meantime we will continue to meet on Saturdays at Scallywags in Toronto, If any of you are ever there feel free to join us every week.

Sadly there are too many fans who don't think you're a real fan unless you were born close to selhurst park, supported them when they were s**t, go to every game home and away, and stand up and sing the whole game....Anyone else is just a plastic. I think its fantastic we have overseas supporters/visitors who want to come and support us rather than Chelsea, arsenal, etc. Long may it continue..
