Sadly a lot of palace fans are very jealous of HF and refuse to accept they've raised the bar on atmosphere. Sitting in the holmesdale against west Brom this absolutely detestable bloke was giving the HF right grief when they were setting up their displays. I'm thinking 'what a Cnut, what's his problem'? It must be jealousy. That bloke wanted to be top dog but is nowhere near. Weird! As for political statements. Tell me one where they have been wrong? Sorry, money is ruining the game, fans are getting priced out, Sky is part of that, although it's a delicate balancing act, nobody wants to cut off the hand that feeds you. I'm not a great fan of the face covering etc, but without doubt, they've made selhurst the best atmosphere in the league. End of!

calling them crazy for making some vague protests against capitalisation and the closing of clubs they like is ridiculous they have every right to. Perhaps the club should ban any banners that aren't Crystal Palace related Originally posted by georgey wood
I'm sure most people hate the way sky have such an influence over kick off times and ticket prices. All of us that go are really part of that problem. It's actually people that subscribe to Sky that that are behind Sky's stranglehold on the game as that is where they get their funding from

Are you suggesting that is down to jealousy too?

midlands eagle- my point was slightly broader obviously sky and the creation of the premier league clearly all feed into increased wages, transfer prices and in turn match day prices. Obviously sky subscriptions are a big part of this.

I'd dropped Townsend for Zaha this week. Gutted. However that was somewhat comforted by having Dann in the side. Might try dropping Benteke for Townsend next. It hurts that I can only have 3 Palace players in my team. I dropped Townsend as well but for Antonio, who scored but wish I'd left Townsend. Like you Dann also scored for me but I had Wickham on the bench.

Our motivations for this banner in support of Fabric stem from what we see as a crackdown on youth culture in London and the UK as a whole. The football terraces were once a place of expression for the youth of this country but were taken away from their rightful owners and replaced with a mass top down sterilisation of the game that sought furthered control and greater profits for those at the top. Our fight is primarily with those who have damaged the game of football but unfortunately negative parallels can be drawn between the decline of UK terrace culture and London's music scene today. Many of the best pubs and clubs in London (The Recreation Ground, SE1, The Port Manor and Cable) have closed in recent years more often than not to make way for expensive flats. London is not Oligarchs keeping their money safe in property, its caning it down the pub Friday night after work, going to the match on a Saturday with your pals, raving till Sunday lunch and most importantly, it is resisting those who try to take our culture away from us. Once again we see the desire for profit attempting to stamp out British youth culture. We will not let this continue. The loss of the capitals most iconic venue would represent a physical and representative loss in this ongoing battle between profit and the cities youth. Fabric is an institution, one many of us have spent seminal nights in and a keystone in London's nightlife. Saturday afternoons might be for football but Saturday nights are for raving, for many of us they go hand in hand, a weekend not complete without both. Fabric need cash to ready them for the upcoming legal battle with the old bill. Last time they beat them in court and with support they will do it again. Donate to the cause below. Together our spirit is unbreakable. HF05. Oh I do love a HF statement. By this, are they saying the we all have to go raving on Saturday nights?

I was in the pub with the HF before & after the Valencia friendly, had a bit of banter with them before the game & they invited me to stand with them behind the goal & I had a bang on their drum.

So your happy with all the money in football going up the ladder yeah? Gees I bet MLK/Ali/Corbyn was/is boring and embarrassing to you!! Dear General... We go to football to get away from all that sh1t. We want to watch football.... if possible we want to watch Palace win and be entertained... we want to have a good time and not worry about anything. We DON'T want to watch some spotty herberts dressed like the Phantom Flan Flinger holding up a tatty bed sheet with Fabreze (LOL) written on it! In case you hadn't noticed we have The Crystals and Kayla the Eagle to provide pre-match entertainment and neither of them have political messages ruining their displays! I have no objection to the HF's political aims and visions of the future.... just don't ram it down our throats on matchdays thank you.
