Quote Leiceagle at 07 Mar 2013 11.46am £395 for next season regardless of which Division the club is in, providing you purchase early - which I've done again. It was an early offer. Ok fair enough didnt realise that. Ours is £18 approx a game more although in the championship you play more games so it might equate to slightly more than taht, is a good deal.

I have never liked the modern referee much. They are full of their own importance and too many seek the limelight. I mean how many who have retired cant wait to jump on tv and give their opinion and Poll is the worse. I was once at a game where he actually had banter with the crowd as the game was going on!!! His job is to be the official. It is not to be the centre of attention. Clattenburg, irrespective of the incident referred to is of the same type. He will get abuse (he shouldnt but he will). Mark Halsey is the best one. Professional, doesnt seek the limelight and gets on with his job!! Surely in Graham Poll's case it's good to have some interaction with players (maybe not fans) it gives the players a sense of comfort ability. Your HOL best newcomer of the year 2013.

You've made some incorrect assumptions here. Just because fans of your club have reacted a certain way, doesn't mean all fans of every club want the same things. If they did, explain why Utd fans broke away and created FCUM, why AFC Wimbledon are infinately more respected than Man City, and why the vast majority of fans attending live football are at clubs who've won no silverware or haven't for a long while? Thats because there are only a certain amount of trophies to go round which are predominantly won by a few clubs. I think the situations at Man utd and AFC Wimbledon are actually different but both arose because of disgruntled fans (justifiably by the way) at the direction their club was going. Most fans arent so disgruntled with their ownerships which is why the forming of 'AFC's' are rare and not the norm. Football supporters do not crave trophies. Some may do, but I, and many fellow Palace fans, don't. Thats not to say it wouldn't be great to compete for a major honour, but that would be a bonus, not the nitty gritty of what following us is about. Sorry have to disagree with this and feel that you have an idealistic view of football fans that just isnt true and doesnt hold up to scrutiny. Fans do crave trophies or at least success and thats clearly shown by the increase in attendance and sales of merchandise thats follows said success. I accept you have that view but disagree that it is a common held one. Myself and many other Palace fans have commented that they're not sure about going to the prem. It's great to get there, but the reality is we'd struggle, our youngsters wouldn 't get a chance and prices would go up. Again I am sure you will be in a minority with such a view.

Very admirable and totally understand.Cant agree except with Torres LOL highest attendance at Selhurst this year was Burnley, 20,863 Last year was Cardiff (league cup semi) 22,147 What's your point? My point is that your second highest attendance in the last two years was against us in a pre-season friendly. Which really sums up my point about fans wanting to see the top players and have success at their club. Edited by chelski (07 Mar 2013 2.51pm)
