I will be honest I always admired these guys to some extent for their passion and commitment however the post they made on twitter today about international members is beyond stupid and goes to show what a limited bunch they are and how little research they have done. Yes I live away from the UK and I am so sorry they feel I am less off a fan than them because I don't walk around with banners and devote all of my weekends to Palace like they do. However what I will say is that not only in Toronto but across the world that have formed supporters groups and regularly watch the games at various venues together and sit through watching the same drivel that all of them have to put up with. So if we would like to attend a game when back in the UK they should offer us a little more respect and not come out with rubbish like this. Morons! Will be interesting to hear others thoughts on this. Attachment: IMG_2514.JPG (176.97Kb)

Angsty bunch of spotty mugs who somehow think they have a seat on the board because they put up pretty displays and liken themselves to Italian Ultras. They got boring a while back.

Clearly not aimed at Palace ex-pats who have the club at heart but you know that already.
The mountains are calling & I must go. |

Bad idea to send a tweet like that, completely open to the interpretation of the Op and sends entirely the wrong message to our fans overseas.

I was in Cincinnati last year to watch the boys. It was fantastic. The way Cincinnati took to our Palace was seriously impressive. Also the Palace fans who followed the tour all over North America were great

I wouldn't be taking a lot of notice to be honest . Real fans don't run down to the tunnel at the end of matches and slag the players as they come off however poorly they have performed . They lost a lot of respect for that They are but a small ,if thankfully noisy , part of our fan base .

Everyone at every club has an opinion about football tourists and I've not heard many positive comments.

They are quite clearly with out a doubt talking about premiership tourists ie those who just go to any ground to watch a premiership game just coz it's a premiership game and not palace fans who live abroad or can't get to games frequently.

Does anyone really take any notice of the fanatics these days? Just get on with supporting the club lads, you are entitled to your opinions but you are not a mouthpiece for the club.
