@LegendsInThread I have very low expectations, so could be pleasantly surprised by any minor positive thing 😅❤️💙

@JBS5z 😭

@Promo_man @henryswainjourn He did look so much better at the start of the season.
I wonder what’s happened?

[Lisa 🦅💙 @Troomp]

@Beulah12 It’s very clear now we, the fans were very much part of the team that won those 3 trophies. The powers that be didn’t just get rid of key players like Lacroix and Munoz in the summer 😢

@footballontnt Hoffenheim diving left right and centre second half and ref lapped it up 🤦‍♀️

[Lisa 🦅💙 @Troomp]

@WhyteleafeEagle Wow! Thank you @Teeserv2 for such an amazingly written piece that will resonate with most Palace fans, and probably many other fans coming up against the many flaws of modern football.
Here’s hoping @CEO4TAG reads it too. 🙏🏻

@CPBY1991 @timeformargs @trij003 @FYPFanzine The intention was obviously derogatory, implying the stewards were illegal immigrants. Using the wide spread deflective narrative that people arriving on boats to the uk are causing the country problems.

@brucemillington @BobbyManzi No intent, clumsy

[AB⚕ @AbsoluteBruno]

These football AI shorts just keep getting better, this is the best one I have seen so far😭😭

[Lisa 🦅💙 @Troomp]

@Promo_man I just wish he would be more animated!

There’s people at the club that do need removing before him though tbf!

[Lisa 🦅💙 @Troomp]

@bill_wyman So pleased the club marked your big birthday, Bill ☺️

@hhustler7576 @soberich Agree. I felt that it was Pino showing the most fight and passion yesterday

[Lisa 🦅💙 @Troomp]

@rickeveleigh @soberich I’d say it feels similar atm ☹️

I spoke to Pierre Sage for a good 15+ minutes last Thursday afternoon in Istanbul
1-2-1 at the Ritz Carlton Hotel.
He came across as such a great guy who has passion and ambition for the club I love he has the same goals and agenda I have that is to leave it in a better when we leave.
I arrived and have supported Palace through thick and thin since 1980 obviously longer than Pierre as he was 6 months old.

The people who are running our club are destroying us.
If they put into the club the same amount as us loyal fans instead of only wanting to take out all would be good but they are Buisness people who are only interested in making money.
They’ve employed people who are only interested in maximising profits, finding new ways of earning more money and couldn’t care less in the destruction of our values of our club.
We’ve had our club hijacked piece by piece.
They are not interested in our views or our identity.
They are so arrogant they think they know best and drive their vision of our club through no matter what.
I’m sick of token gesture groups set up who think they know what’s best for us it’s all a con they’re being manipulated and just yes people.
Our loyalty is being betrayed. Crystal Palace is built on our fan base. The real fanbase not tourists or the rich day trippers that want to experience our uniqueness built on Our Blood , Sweet and tears I’m afraid that’s not for sale.
You can sell your corporate packages but you can’t sell us the heart beat the grit the passion of the club.

I’ve never considered not attending Palace my whole lifetime it would be inconceivable but the whole package that is being served to us at the moment is unacceptable, unpalatable and a disgusting disgrace.

Anyone decent in the staff has also left or wants to leave.

They’re are also a lot of good decent staunch people left in our club certain players, plenty of coaching staff etc.

In 896 home games I’ve been to Selhurst Park yesterday was a top 5 bad experience ,

A Rock Bottom if things don’t change rapidly it’s end of . I ain’t talking about Sage either it’s the hierarchy and the people in senior positions either get in the trenches with us or go away or we’ll go away.
I hope it’s not too late but maybe it is they haven’t got their fingers on the pulse like we have because they are not the heartbeat of our club
Never in 46 years have I ever experienced such a disconnect between us fans and the club it’s beyond comprehension.
You’ll need a smaller ground not a larger ground with all this Americanisation of our club
We want our club back. ⚰️ ❤️💙🦅

@FYPFanzine They were lucky Palace fans are all pretty reasonable and placid!

[Lisa 🦅💙 @Troomp]

@FYPFanzine There was also a small group of us with accommodation not that far from the stadium who had the incredulity of asking to leave the outside gates to walk back, rather than get bussed to the middle of nowhere!
They let us out eventually. Is it a criminal offence to walk as a fan?

[Lisa 🦅💙 @Troomp]

@ross_cpfc Absolutely. Haven’t settled since losing 2 incredible centre backs ☹️

[Lisa 🦅💙 @Troomp]

Back from the game:
We were pony first half. 💩
Battled second half.
Ref was appalling.🤬
Deserved a draw.
Lyon’s support was top draw but ground too big for them!
Stewards and police dreadful, authoritarian with no common sense 😡

[Lisa 🦅💙 @Troomp]

@neiltipping Not quite! 😅
