Good Luck - from a palace fan

[Sew109]

Hi there,

I am a Palace season ticket holder married to a blades fan ! When we were living away from the ground we used to go to Blades homes and Palace aways and I was always made to feel welcome by a super bunch of supporters. Anyway rightly or wrongly for the first time ever I am wanting Palace to lose !! We have nothing to play for and I hope that you guys win and go up and take the automatic place of the blue noses !! You may well spot us we will be in the family stand to your left and I suspect my wife will have at least a scarf on and will be going mental when you score.

Good luck and fill up my senses
Simon

Cheers for that Simon

Should be a good atmosphere regardless of what happens, especially seeing as we've got the playoffs in the bag as a minimum. I think the majority of Blades are looking forward to the trip down (I know we are!)... just hope the rumours of West Ham paying a visit are unfounded.

Expect some weird and wonderful fancy dress and a massive pitch invasion if we're up automatic. Send the bill for any damage to Kevin McCabe

No, send the bill to West Ham, would be their fault.:thumbup:

Blimey, and to think I'd came on here to wish you lot luck.

I personally hope you do come up. Would mean two more derbies next season (and hopefully, six easy points).

Plus I've heard a rumour we don't have to pay you lot out if you're in the Prem.

You know you love us

There is a rumour on the more... how shall we say... downmarket boards, that some of your less intelligent fans and some of our cretins are on the look out for each other that day.

Plus I've heard a rumour we don't have to pay you lot out if you're in the Prem.

Very interesting... although I don't think we'd have settled on that one. Never know though.

People remember playing Palace on the last day of the (last) promotion season? Mexican waves on all 4 sides of BDTBL - that "track suit from Matalan" (thanks Gabor!!) and "manger from Chester Zoo" (thanks Mr Dowie!!!) - The presentation of the runners up plate, Neil warnock's little lass singing the Greast Chip Butty through a mike to the Kop and a well oiled Derek Dooley singing "New York, New York" from the centre spot. That was a day to be a Blade!!

I was stood on the kop and said to those around me that dear old Derek was completely bungalowed when he came on the pitch. They didn't believe me until he started singing

He certainly did appear to be, er, 'tired and emotional', but then why not! Palace was a fun day, and even I smiled (honest), and joined in the infamous Mexican bloody waves.

My only slight gripe was that we were robbed of the 'actual' promotion at the 'actual' match, as it had been settled by Reading beating Weeds, but that's just being picky, and there was an impromptu celebration with Reading fans at the Lane that evening anyway!

I also remember Brownie attempting to make a statement, but not being allowed to.

Brownie: "I may not know much about football, b...."
HH: "Yer reight theer!"

I doubt he's the only one .... ahem

We legged it to the Lane from the Crown and there was no bastard there

So we sat around until people came to join in.
