Originally posted by madcap_v2 Quite embarrassing that people can't distinguish between BLM the movement and BLM the organisation really. I also don't believe Millwall fans can spell Marxism, let alone know what it is to boo it. Let's just call Millwall/West Ham what they are; racists. I hope those who are given the chance to go to the game this weekend, don't embarrass the club this way. Racists wouldn't be my first choice of words about Millwall and West Ham, but there is a block on really abusive swear words on here. So I can take your point. However, racist is a tired choice of insult these days. The word is bandied about ad nauseum. I don't think Palace fans will boo, but there will be a lot who are tired of the knee thing. Palace will probably clap the knee. I've always thought us respectful of black players and largely colour blind in our choice of players. For a wider debate. I've often found it interesting how our crowds don't tend to represent the current area, however, which is a shame in some ways. I hope we can remain somewhat local. Red and Blue Army!

Isn’t that what Morris dancers do?

With regard to your last paragraph, I have often thought this. Many years ago, crowds were most definitely more “local”. Supporters move away from the area and are replaced by Utd/Liverpool plastics or by people who are just not interested in football. A good discussion for another thread.
