I'm not sure how much truth is in this. The Ultras are all ultimately allPalace fans so it's unlikely they are all going to stop going. Likewise I'm guessing that many of them have purchased their season tickets already and would be loathed to give it up because of some spat. May be wrong but reckon they will still be their but maybe just missing a few. "It feels much better than it ever did, much more sensitive." John Wayne Bobbit

That seems unlikely as the club have put their 100 seats at the front of block B up for sale, or for existing season ticket holders to move into. Bexley Dave Can you hear the Brighton sing?

Originally posted by OhthisbloodyPC The Ultras may be a bit prima donna -ish, but they are out best fans. If they were players of equal stature, they'd be on 100 grand a week. No wonder they've slapped in a transfer request. It won't be long before Arsenal and Man United, both desperate for some decent singers, will start sniffing around. I hope the Ultras have got a good agent. Please please don't make them go to Chelsea. They'll just end up festering on the bench or going out on loan to Charlton ————————————————————————————- And i have always said the only ones who are truly 100 percent loyal is the fans. Really though I was a bit surprised they went on strike a while back when I think someone got banned or their tickets weren’t right or something, but we moved on from that but it’s sounding like the toys have been thrown out this time big time. We have had a good atmosphere before the HF but they have done a great deal to drive the crowd on and we have got used to how we do it i.e they start off with their drum etc we all join in and stay in time etc. It might take us a little time to find the new way. If this is true I must also say I’m more than a tad disappointed with the HF as they are not as fanatical as we all thought and also they have absolutely no right to another part of the ground as a given they must of understood that.

Loads of people are saying that atmosphere was good in block b before hf but they improved it with their drum and stuff like that. Why don't people who sit in block b get a drum and welcome people to come stand in block b to make it louder

Block b became popular with the more vocal supporters because it used to be next to the away fans before they moved. Having a standing section in that corner means that they hardly block anyone's view. If they moved to the centre behind the goal then the whole of the lower tier would have to stand too.

Agree, blocks A and B are loud as people moved there years ago to be next to the away fans. Although they start most of the songs , 90% of the noise comes from the few thousand behind them

If the club don't treat them differently from everyone else how come their season tickets have only just become available? I am sure I would have lost my option if I hadn't renewed by May time and I'm and home and away ST holder. Not saying the HF don't sing etc and help build the atmosphere at home games but others are equally fanatical supporters but don't get preferential treatment.

We know that the club treated them differently to other supporters; that's a given. I suspect that the reason these seats have only just become available was due to ongoing negotiations with respect to where they wanted to sit; clearly those have now broken down.
