I hold Marinakis in contempt... of football.

Not as much contempt as the bloke who runs the eat all you want buffet.

Yep. I just don't understand it when Selhurst is referred to as a fortress, and it's a difficult place to come etc.
I've not seen any statistics, but I wouldn't mind betting that our home form is one of the worst in the football pyramid, let alone the Premier League.

I think that’s more a reference to the diabolical traffic and sh!t parking 🤣
Selhurst is far from a fortress, unless you count the odd shooting in the high street.

This is a huge shame and a massive negative for the club and us other fans.

Those who dislike or hate the HF to me are like those who dislike or hate parish... Cant win with some people.

Without them either way the match day atmosphere is going to struggle.

When they protested a few years ago and missed a game or 2 the atmosphere was absolutely dreadful. Not to mention the fact the Manager, new players and future players might enjoy the HF being part of what they're buying in to.

So to those who are happy about it... I hope you enjoy sitting in silence at Selhurst 🥱

The atmosphere has been rubbish for the past couple of seasons. They didn’t join in when others had started a song. There location in the lower tier does not provide good acoustics and they were not often heard beyond the lower tier. I sit in block B lower and at times struggled to hear what they were singing. (I maybe need to get my hearing checked)

There was a small group in the Arther that made an effort to make some noise and with the low ceiling the acoustics magnify the noise much better and that is why the away fans seem to generate a good noise level. (Except Arsenal who were just embarrassing). With a little effort from them and the lower I’m sure that we can still generate a decent atmosphere. We just need the team to give us something to sing and cheer about.

Last season we had 4 home wins in the league! West ham had 6 spurs and wolves 3 and burnley 2.

2 of those with injury time winners and another with a winner with 2 mins to go. Brentford was the only team we beat by more than one goal and were quite comfortable.

What gives you the right to brand people like that, you have no idea what people are & what they think, we now know what you think tho.

Unfortunately some people don't like others having opinions that don't align with their own.

That's a strange response to what was said. You don't have to agree.

Wasn't one of those goals an own goal from a long throw in too? 🤣
