Why are we worse at home?

Wrong type of grass?

Leaves on the pitch.

Chris Armstrong was ahead of the curve on that one.

Palace didn't win for the first 17 games I went to. Quite why I bother sometimes is a question.

Who did we beat in the 18th game? 😁

It’s funny really, we go to 20 odd home games in 9 months give or take depending on cup games. Well you wouldn’t go to the same s*** restaurant 20 times in 9 months or go to the cinema and watch the same s*** film 20 times in 9 months. Or the same s*** gig 20 times, yet we still keep going back to palace game after game, year after year🤣

So have I, however it is not as 'Axminster' thick as it one was. 😊
Furthermore, it is no longer subjected to Silvikrin oil or Brylcreem.

I know what you mean, not quite as thick on top for me either……apart from the blood pressure pills I take, I’m not doing bad for 50 years supporting palace I suppose

I suspect a number of us just refused to be plastic supporters of one of the so-called big clubs. Coming from an army family which spent most of my first 18 years overseas, the first club I vaguely followed was the nearest top division club to my grandparents, Sheffield Wednesday. When we finally returned to England and I was at college in Derbyshire I went to a few of Cloughie's Derby County games.

I started supporting Palace when I first went to London as a young man to work. I could have chosen one of the bigger clubs but, somehow, I got hooked on Allison's rapidly falling down the divisions Palace. That's life as they say.

Growing up between Palace and Millwall and processing opposable thumbs and the ability to walk upright made the choice more than easy.

Reminds me of the song "I'm a Neanderthal man - you're a Neanderthal girl; let's make Neanderthal love in a Neanderthal world...". There were some pretty awful songs in those days.

I was the same, I admit I wanted to go Millwall at first, but my dad said “they’re mad bastards you’re not going there, jump on the bus and go palace” …….he never did like me!! 🤣

He saved your bacon though by saving you from consorting with those cave dwellers.

It might have been nice though going somewhere where even I was the most intelligent there 🤣

A capybara that wandered in there could make that claim.

I’m afraid I had to Google what a capybara was, but at least unlike Millwall fans I know how to use Google 🤣
