Meanwhile the National Sports Centre continues to fall down. Maybe Boris could overrule the LDA and push for the Crystal Palace site to be redeveloped?

If you mean Purley or Croydon junction you have traffic held up at the first junction to turn to Wallington where the MacDonalds drive thru is, then another towards fiveways, then long traffic problems at the top of Purley way playing fields all the way down to the traffic funnelling into 3 lanes everyone’s fighting for in Purley. Then a bit of wrestling on the Brighton Road for a while before it finally isn’t bumper to bumper any more. There would need to be park and ride.

The site is too small, in a very busy road that struggles to cope with existing traffic already, also in a main shopping area. The only decent public transport is the tram, have you ever tried getting there from M25 on a Saturday, it takes about an hour.

I hate to micturate in your French fries, but where would the money come from? Certainly not from any of the current three majority owners. They won't now fund one stand, let alone a whole stadium, even if it were a realistic plan.

But, its only a dream to be fair, but its an idea if ikea folds, paint the famous towers red and blue, have crystal palace written on them for whole of south london to see, well, croydon anyway, but i won"t hold my breath, would be happy with a new stand at selhurst!
