Think this might have caused a bit of a tension between the two sets of directors when this was unfurled at the start of the match. Can't believe that it was smuggled in so must have been erected with the approval of the club.
I'm so Palace I don't even know it |

What did it say? Apparently Croydon Police received complaint about a racist banner. Not racist in my view. I suspect complaint was made by Staveley or her husband, he was seen taking a photo of it.

Perhaps I'm missing something but not sure how they content of the banner could be construed as racist? Seems very frivolous that it would be even investigated by Croydon Police.

Too late by then.

They probably have to make a statement to cover themselves before taking no action after speaking to the people in question.

Outstanding effort from the HF today. Let's hope it inspires similar in every away ground throughout the season, as well as at home games. The waddling penguin scum are going to have to get used to it.

Sadly freedom of speech no longer exists it would appear, goodness knows how this can be called racist when it was only saying what most us are already aware of as we read in the "free "press.

Not a big fan of that lot but think they did a brilliant job with this banner. Shocked that I saw more than a few of their fans with Saudi flags near the station.
