The HF played their part but so did the rest of us. difference is (So we are told) they have proved to be a bit flakey and are not supporting the team any more, whereas the rest of us (granted might not bring a big flag or turn the opposite way missing most of the game) will ALWAYS be there. I'm pretty sure which of the two Roy is referring to when talking about the fans lifting the team.

I'm pretty sure which of the two Roy is referring to when talking about the fans lifting the team. You're in denial. You may not wallow but plenty of fans on here and on twitter froth at the mouth anytime someone mentions 'best fans in the league'. And not supporting the team anymore? More fake news. We've been told they are still attending but individually, but not as a group. So they are just like any 'normal' fan now. And Roy is referring to the HF. Don't be jealous. You know it. I'm tough. I'm ambitious. I know exactly what I want. If that makes me a bitch, I'm OK with that.

But those little weeny weeny ones would mean you are a plastic.

[quote=bright&wright;3357983] And we thank you for turning up every week with your prawn sandwiches. That's a bit of a daft comment as he has already said that he turns up every week and his money is just as good as anyone else's. Let's not forget that our chairman is a lifelong fan but you don't see him bouncing up and down like a chimpanzee. Does that make him one of the prawn sandwich brigade?

Doesn’t make him a better fan, but if every Palace decided to leave, if things don’t go as they like. The teams we watched for long periods under Mullery, Francis and Taylor would got rid of the fairweather fan.

The teams we watched for long periods under Mullery, Francis and Taylor would got rid of the fairweather fan. But they haven't left? Who told you they have left? We've been told multiple times that they have simply dispersed into the crowd. So now they won't be jumping up and down anymore. They'll be behaving just like the rest of us. That's not so bad is it? And actually, under Mullery we apparently lost a lot of fans. Some never came back. I've read that in multiple historical palace books. I'm tough. I'm ambitious. I know exactly what I want. If that makes me a bitch, I'm OK with that.

Yeah, that was because of his refusal to turn his back to the pitch, jump up and down, wave a giant flag and keep banging a drum for 90 minutes. Or, at least, that's the way I remember it...
