Who is we? I am proud to be a Palace fan but am not proud of South London. When going to away games I generally go by train, i get off and go to the closest pub near the station, might grab a bit of food on the way to the ground, i probably see a very small part of the town i am in but on my return would say the place was nice or a complete s***hole based on what i see.Can you imagine getting off a train at Thornton Heath, going up the high street amongst the rubbish, dumped furniture and every other shop being a barbers or open supermarket with Hindi music blaring out. Then onto a pub that is a complete s***hole. The you go to the ground and the away end in the Arthur. Are you proud of that? i am not and the majority of people that say they are proud of South London are the ones like you that dont live there anymore. I am very proud to have been born in South London and grew up on a rough council estate but the majority of South London is nothing like it was 25-30 years ago as their is very little sense of community left and some areas areas are just vile. Well said. I was born at Mayday hospital , lived and educated in Thornton heath and my mother still lives there now . The place is a dump. I am proud of my club and what we are and what we have achieved. But I don't sugar coat the place. Thornton Heath high street I despair at the state of the place . My mum was born and raised in south Norwood and Woodside and she describes the decline of the place as terminal. The rest of us have moved out of the area , she sadly is stuck there
When I was a young girl my Mother said to me.. You listen here kid you're CPFC |

Still fond of Croydon/Couldson/New Addington as a lot of my family still lived there until quite recently and I had nice times there. I'm sure I couldn't sell any of them to holiday makers though, but I defend them to people that slag them off. Especially people that haven't been there. People that have been to these places though...fair cop!

West Ham were giving it large over the other platform and I was singing back at them along with a few other cpfc fans, before I knew it I was getting smashed in the back of the head by some c***t and also another. Police were sh1t as usual and wondering if anyone else saw what happened Edited by SwordFish (16 Oct 2016 8.48am) Wish I was wiv you mate I would ave kicked there fxxxin heads in.
