That’s no doubt part of why the Bristol car park talk happened, and rumour has it Freedman objected to selling Wilf, but it was necessary financially before his head being turned. COYP

The land value of owning the Freehold to Selhurst Pk was a 'Get out of Jail Free' card. Zero risk, guaranteed profit. I disengage, I turn the page.

Originally posted by Forest Hillbilly and just to add, I didn't make the FA cup final, although it transpired later, I had enough Parish points. What checks (if any) are made on Parish Points for people dressed in black ? Tbf the HF are probably in the top percentile of fans with points and certainly hold more than roughly 80-90% there on the day. COYP

Originally posted by Rudi Hedman Sign this if you want to nudge Parish to get this sorted out more than that awful club statement. 870 signatures so far. [Link] I stress here the wording... Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish, offered the Homesdale Fanatics (HF), room in block E of to progress their support of the club and displays. He later went back on this promise and the HF are no longer at Selhurst this season as an organised group. Atmosphere at Selhurst this season has been markedly worse, and the team are yet to win at home. We the undersigned respectfully ask Steve Parish to work with the HF to find a solution, this season and get the support back that the team deserve. Steve Browett's comment: The HF wanted a 3 block central singing section with themselves at the top of the middle one - block E. This would have meant moving hundreds of fans who like their seats, prefer to sit rather than stand and dont want to move. Its just not practical. The club is working hard to find a compromise solution but it needs some flexibility on both sides. the dignified don't even enter in the game

And this will still not appease certain people as they have it in their heads its ALL the clubs fault.

Their statement is far more professional than the club’s embarrassing effort. Take note, 2010. This has been handled appallingly. COYP
