No, but tbf to them, they did create the greatest atmosphere seen at Wembley.

You are both correct

 

[Linford]

Think they are marmite - you love them or you hate them.

Followed Palace home and away in my teens but then couldn’t always go because of work, lack of money and a young family. Fast forward 40 years, remained loyal to Palace and now enjoy going to home and away games as I have done for a number of years. Can’t help getting old, having more time and money to watch my only team I’ve supported since 1973. So not happy with them calling out ‘old’ people at away games. Kids of today - no respect 🤣

I don't think the line about "dominated by older fans" is criticising older fans. I think it is more to say that younger ones simply aren't turning up in high numbers.

Never a dull moment being a Palace fan, sometimes a bit too much drama?

 

[Swindy]

Perhaps the clubs finally just hacked with them costing so much in fines. It is a surprise as they appeared to be Parish's mates who could do want they wanted and whose interests were put ahead of other fans.

Bring back plastic clappers. That'll fix it.

Might be a few secondhand ones for sale from Leicester fans - they worked well for them🤣. Is it PSG who use their PA as the the signing conductor? A bit plastic though, maybe the clappers are better?

The HF wiill be back before long.

We're the Arthur we're the Arthur we're the Arthur over here

I remember the day's of singing in the Arthur wait enclosure, just have to bring that back and also remember singing through a 9-0 defeat so it can be done 👍

Onwards and upwards

All the more reason for Main standard voices to be increased for a change !!!

I think it is a grave sadness that an fan organisation that has lasted 21 years feels it cannot operate at this club any longer. Whether that is sharon lacey and the incompetent leadership who failed to provide an conference league winners parade or a community shield parade and half arsed a fa cup parade, and lied to the HF about the council locking up their things when it was palace under her reign.or maybe the fat one with his legal challenge to root out dissent to his possibly illegal greek operations or the premier league with their new rules on ticket sharing designed to eliminate touting whilst probably punishing honest fans or another factor it is a kick to the feels.

In any case the omens look bad for this season so far. I wish to thank the HF for their long and meritorious service to our club and wish them the best for their palace supporting future even if their politics were a bit too dulwich hamlet for my tastes.

Hopefully we will start hearing the full cry of “eagles eagles “when palace are pushing for a goal ( old school - back in the seventies ) - none of this orchestrated nonsense!
Eagles, Eagles,Eagles.

It worth repeating this line from another poster

"I haven't got much time for statements that use all those words but say so little. "

I still have no idea what that HF statement meant.

 

[blackgirl3]

I've read it numerous time and I'm still not really sure what they are chatting about. All very odd.

Can only assume there is a new grievance that they dont want to air...

Will their block be empty, or will they just not sing?

Defendants in the defamation case are CPFC Ltd and "persons unknown" according to reports. The FA already fined the club over the incident. Seems to me that what the fanatics thought was amusing smartarse banter has turned into something the club could have done without, and guess what, Marinakis means business.

Indeed. Take a look at any other court cases he's been involved with!

I hope they are there in full voice tonight.

As a local resident I'd be interested to know what it is about Dulwich Hamlet's politics that isn't to your taste.

It was a statement full of ego and their own self-importance.

He can go f*** himself.
