COYW Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 6000 Derby at Barnsley today now unless it was 1 quid a ticket it must be because of current form? Derby's support has always been impressive all things considered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heb 7:4 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 re the palace fucking ultras. are palace a brand new club or have they been going donkey years ? we know the answer,so where the hell were they then Wankers,close the thread please Blimey, what's got your goat? I get that any group of fans being self-congratulatory can be tedious, but we've been working at the atmosphere at Selhurst for years. Like most clubs our away support was always fine, but ten years ago or so the atmosphere at Selhurst had become absolutely pony. It was just depressing. A group of fans got together in 2003 through the messageboards with the purpose of just singing all match. Then in 2005 another group got together in another stand (which was the HF, our 'ultra' group), again with the aim of signing all game no matter what. I couldn't really give a toss if we're better than other clubs or not (I'm just glad that Selhurst is a joy to go to again) but it's not a new Premiership driven thing. Anyway, happy new year. How's Dougie doing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my rendition of "Mary had a little lamb" has yet to be taken up enthusiastically by the Selhurst faithful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How's Dougie doing? Spot on that mate. I wish we had similar revolution. The atmosphere at the reebok is the worse in the entire league.

zurichwhite Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 How's Dougie doing? There are several, myself included, who think he's overcomplicates things, chops and changes too much, possibly alienates players and overall makes baffling and contradictory decisions. What was your view during his time there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Spider Posted January 1, 2014 Site Supporter Share Posted January 1, 2014 The atmosphere at the Reebok is shite occasionally it will pick up a bit second half when everyone's had a drink. Hopes not high for it to be bouncing today, like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How's Dougie doing? Carry on. Palace and Boro home fans (situated near away fans) definitely created a more lively atmosphere than most last season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How's Dougie doing? Know quite a few Palace fans down here in Perth mate (mainly Sydenham and Penge boys). Good, sound lads with a very healthy interest in Vespa and Lambretta Keep it up at Selhurst. I know it's been tried at our place with North Stand etc. but we'll never overcome not being in our hometown. Competing with duelling banjo's is not easy.

Ghana White Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 fair play to em, anything that genuinely helps the atmosphere and isn't some terrible Americanism then I'm all for it.

Members bolty58 Posted January 6, 2014 Members Share Posted January 6, 2014 Some parts of 'Americanisation' are shit but there are plenty of plusses. Anyone who watched the Chick-fil-A-Bowl with Johnny Football leading the Aggies to a momentous win over Duke will know what I mean. Not everything American is bad.

Members bolty58 Posted January 7, 2014 Members Share Posted January 7, 2014 I do hope you are right Frank. The US company I worked for was based in Milwaukee (hence the Wisconsin Badgers connection) but the coupling factory is in Auburn, Alabama. The Tigers are definitely my 'second' college team. Been to Camp Randall half a dozen times but Jordan Hare only once. Looking forward to this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
