My first visit to Selhurst Park was as a 12yr old in 1961 and Palace had just come up from the old 4th Division. It was love at first sight with a 4-1 victory over Notts County under floodlights.

Like many others I have since experienced the extremes of many highs & lows, frustrations & false dawns, plus euphoria, including 9 promotions, 7 relegations, 2 FA Cup Finals (plus one replay) various play off finals and the thrill of watching MY team at Wembley no less than 6 times - plus once at the Millennium Stadium. How many fans of other clubs (outside the usual big hitters) have had those opportunities?

Yes, there is no doubt that the present situation is worrying and a big concern and the football has been dire and not enjoyable of late - but hey, the season is nowhere near over yet. Keep the faith. We`ve been here before.

Someone once said to me that you are more likely to divorce your wife than change allegiance to your football team. How very true - it has tribal origins, it's in the blood and blood runs very deep.

My love affair with this magical, frustrating, yet still fantastic club has endured above all else and is not going to fade now. The current phase will pass - for good or for worse. We have been here before and will doubtless be here again but the magic will always be with us. Selhurst is ours and ours alone - I shall be going there for quite some time yet!

You can face anything if you are true to yourself.

I have been going since the 60s and to this day I look forward to each and every game.I'm sure this will wear off some day !!!!

M20? You Lucky bugger. I have to choose either the M4 or the M40, then M25, or rail via Marylebone or Paddington. Then I have to choose Thornton Heath or Norwood Junction.

Two to three hours each way for me. Every single match!

I love the build up to the game, telling friends and family I am going. Getting up on the day getting ready, travelling, spotting more and more supporters the closer you get. I particularly love palace under the floodlights. Something very very special about it.

When I was a young girl my Mother said to me.. You listen here kid you're CPFC

If I didn't take the kids I wouldn't mind at all. My boy is five and as optimistic (and daft) as any other lad his age. He GENUINELY thinks he could beat Usain Bolt in a race.

But we went up to Arsenal and a couple of kindly older Arsenal fans were having a bit of banter with him, asking him who was going to win. He said Arsenal.

They tried to encourage him to believe in Palace but he wasn't having it. Arsenal would win. They did and we rolled over meekly.

He doesn't believe we'll win games.

My daughter prefers games against s***tier teams.

I hate that.

But I still love coming to Palace.

If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities.

I feel the same mate. It's incredibly sterile and the attitude amongst fans is the most un palace like I've ever experienced in the 24 years I've supported the club. Disconnected is most apt indeed
