At 66 years old I have seen many good and bad times at our fabulous club, Nearly going out of Business, Marc Goldberg, Simon Jordon, Bert Head etc, and I am sitting here now wondering why some fans are being so negative and calling for SP to go, Over the last 2 or so years under OG we are reaching dizzy heights, Cup final winners, In Europe and Community Shield, some amazing Players and a new stand on the way, Hopefully

I met SP very briefly at an away game about 4 years ago, I turned to him and said Steve lets keep our dream going, he smiled and replied I will do everything I can to keep the club on a sound Financial basis and try to bring success for the fans, not him but the fans, he has achieved this and I cant think of a better time to be a Palace fan, I hope I will still be here to see the new Stand and improvements,

The Holmesdale lads are truly amazing, I live up north now and go to the way games, City, Utd, Burnley, Everton and Liverpool, I sit with them as an old Boy, they are a credit to my Club, at City last year as I have only 1 leg that works, 1 of them asked if I wanted a drink, I gave him me card and 5 mins later brought it back to me seat, not only that he gave me my card back and had treated me to a hot drink.

There is not another club in the world with the amazing support we have, I met up with Lazo lad in lanzarote, we got beat badly by Arsenal,think it was 5 nil, We held our heads up high, by Christ We took some stick !!

Remember we are PALACE fans and the best in the world

Thank you

Have you checked your balance though, they’ve had some pretty expensive displays to pay for this year 🤣

Seriously though brides, well said, good post. SP deserves a lot more respect than ‘some’ of our fans give him. Thankfully I doubt he sees some of the rubbish on here
