In reality they're only a side show,and have little effect on performances on the pitch. To be fair I think that is a reasonable point of view given that our home form is not that good and hasn't been for a while. Conjunctivitis.com - A site for sore eyes.

However, they are a huge asset in terms of our clubs 'passionate fans' reputation, Selhurst Park fear factor, our marketing, our global appeal. I've spoken to people all over the world who know Palace due to our famous atmosphere. The match day experience has dramatically declined and it will put off casual fans from attending. We'll see more empty seats.

I'm in upper Holmesdale and not trying to be controversial but it still sounds loud to me. Are people seriously saying their match day experience is badly affected and it's like a library? I can't see it. Maybe we don't make us much noise these days if we're playing poorly and losing but that's it really.

I'm not a member of the HF. However, it's clear they're brilliant for the atmosphere. People who say otherwise are clueless and have an inferiority complex. This is a fact. laddo "People say, live fast, die young. I say live fast, die old. That's me, the non-conformist". David Brent.
