I think that after a team has won three titles they ought to be relegated to give someone else a chance.
That's a lol from me, but maybe it's not so daft as it sounds. Aren't there (or didn't there used to be) some sports where the participants get "evened out" to ensure strong competition?
Palace since 19 August 1972. Palace 1 (Tony Taylor) Liverpool 1 (Emlyn Hughes) |

This is why I'm happy to see Arsenal bottle it. The fans. They've been so gobby all season after slating their own team on the repeat for years because they've suddenly had one good spell and the moment they realise it's all over they up an leave the stadium with 20 minutes to go, back to the slating. Essentially if you want a nutshell representation of an Arsenal fan look no further than the flags that they pay to have waved behind the goal when they score.

My old dad would have agreed. If it couldn't be Palace then another London club was always preferable to one of those northern ones. I agree too

I agree too There was a time when we were bad rivals - with us being the rough ones. Remember the Clock End song? I seem to remember our fans atop that clock.

Not for me , nothing worse than seeing non Palace shirts being worn on our streets which other London clubs winning the title encourages . Thankfully the Chelsea blue has all but dissapeared the last thing we want is it to be replaced by the red of Arsenal. Let them stay winless and I say

The story of this season isn't how well Arsenal have done but how poorly the other top teams have performed. Even Man City early on were inconsistent as for Spurs, Chelsea and Liverpool they were all over the place. Arsenal led for so long because they were the one ones showing form and were not being challenged. As soon as City hit their stride and started breathing down their necks Arsenal crumbled.

The pyramid to beat all pyramids!! Find out what team is in which division, eg which division is Coppull United in? |
