The Palace Fan

There's one in Tooting that has them regularly. A night out including food on £20. It's like being back at Uni.

@Blue still reeling in @Stan. Brilliant.

I'm not as excited about this as I thought I would be, probably because he's just been paraded as an understudy to Shane for almost two years. The possible feuds now though on Smackdown are endless.

I agree with all of that. Which goes back to my original point of how the constant references to how great the product once was is annoying. The talent is all there. Its just making guys like Goldberg, Triple H and Shane McMahon look great. I want to the talent that's around right now be given the opportunity to establish their own era in a way that's appreciated for decades.

@DeadLinesman

I did sigh when they started talking about another 100 episodes at the end of season seven. You can see with The Talking Dead that they're exaggerating it out to be almost another world instead of a TV Series. Americans ruin everything.

The attitude era was great, but it was 20 years ago. The product should have evolved since then.

That's absolutely brilliant.

Yeah it is. In an ironic way the Met Police don't have any Police Officers playing for them.

The Met Police arrested somebody that scored against them for immigration offences.

I'd argue he joined the perfect side at the time to play to his strengths. That was reflected in his 16 league goals last season. Unfortunately football has evolved where Strikers are expected to play up top by themselves and cover a lot of ground. He was lazy beyond belief and now (due to the criticism) he's trying to a point where he's never in the correct position to utilise his aerial ability efficiently in the opposing penalty area. Thankfully with price increases we should be able to flog him to China for the price we got him for.

Talk of Parish renaming Selhurst Park. Jesus Christ. Just when I felt like I couldn't feel any more alienated.

Given all the trophies, honours and achievements Mourinho has won it's a little cringeworthy seeing Frank de Boer go up against him. There is no doubt in my mind than Mourinho would at least get a goal out of our players, which makes him ten times the man Frank is.

De Boer said words to the effect of it's a pity that Marcus Rashford plays for Jose Mourinho as he focuses on present results and not developing youth. Jose Mourinho responded with: "I read some quotes from the worst manager in the history of the Premier League Frank de Boer". He goes on to say: "If he was coached by Frank, he would learn how to lose, because he lost every game"

That's a heck of a result given that Aldershot are no mugs at that level. Enjoy the game against Hartlepool.

@Teso dos Bichos You seen what Jose Mourinho has said about Frank De Boer? I think it's the most fucking raw put down i've ever heard from a manager.

Ivan Gazidis has said he believes Arsenal will be title challengers again. He hasn't specified a plan on how this will happen mind you.

The whole thing with Dulwich and their stadiums owners is bizarre. They've been kicked out, and there owners have taken copyright of Dulwich Hamlet and DHFC. The owners are American and have no allegiance to the club or sympathy for the community and run it as a business. However they're rejected ten million from Rio Ferdinand's agency to buy the land which could have given them a tidy profit. So the whole thing seems spiteful because the council have rejected building plans recently (a first round here it has to be said). The sad thing is they're flying at the moment because of the money initially invested. They recently beat Billericay and have a lot of players that Palace thought would be top end Championship (or higher) in Reise Allaisaini, Quade Taylor, Ibra Sekajja and Kieron Dijiali. Reise was linked with Norwich City in January after regaining his composure and focus! They're playing the remainder of there games at Tooting and Mitcham which is a four minute drive from my house. So that's Saturday's sorted when Palace aren't playing.

I just watched Beauty and the Beast. What a film.

There's a lot about modern day Crystal Palace that annoys me. One of those things I don't think I've yet mentioned is the PR team.
