    It's very easy they're all stored on here.

    It would appear me pointing out crystal palaces famous atmosphere has really hit the spot.

    That will happen one day from the lot of you I'll just wait until it happens and say I was faster at figuring it out or something.

    I have also said he's doing a very good job overall.. I did the same with Bruce unlike the majority who were very unfair on him at times.

    Newcastles atmosphere is also known for being good but it's **** sometimes like home vs Dortmund for example.

    Palace whether you and magdad like it or not is one of the better ones.. they've done some canny displays themselves and for a small ground they do very well.

    Everyone knows this

    It is a bonkers statistic. Quite how he has done so well in his career. He’s made of glass.

    I will ask my brother later this week what the atmosphere from Palace fans is like.
    He is going on Wednesday, better still, I can get him to give you a call and he can tell you himself what it's like if you want

    I can co concur with this. I went to a corporate game a couple of years ago at their spot and it was a **** atmosphere.

    Ironically it was against Villa in 21. I think they drew it 2-2 or won 3-2 (I was smashed by the end of the game). But the atmosphere was ****e.

    Having said that I think it will be a hard game and then wingers are very good players.

    I also like that Anderson at the back and would spend circa 30m to get him if we could..

    To be fair Eddie Howe has turned things around extremely well in recent weeks and he even sprang a tactical masterclass against spurs.

    So I give him massive credit for that and he’s banked some more goodwill from me.

    That is based on performance and not beliefs.

    I've been to plenty of grounds including selhurst Park and the old den..nothing in recent years but I'm assuming you're going to try and say the rest of the country is wrong aswel?

    This is why nobody likes Newcastle fans because they're so far up their own arses it's unrivalled. I've never known a fanbase need it's arse licked so much... I believe the lastest needy complaint was after the Tottenham game when the BBC said Tottenham played badly.... not getting enough credit tears and the world's against us...... the fanbase have become whores.

    Crystal Palace is one of the best away atmospheres in the league and if you 3 dont like that fine, but stop chasing me around getting all cute.

    Hopefully we can move on.....now turn the other cheek whores.

    I’m
    Not one of the 3 surely?

    I just said when I went in 2021 it was a poor atmosphere. I am of course comparing it to ours now.

    And I wasn’t invested in the game I was more interested in the food and beer which may I add was exceptionally good.

    Which game did you go to at selhurst park?

    I've been and it was nothing special at all.

    Haha no mate..... grounds have ups and downs... it doesn't even matter but I sense some anguish over it.

    Let's see if they can turn the other cheek and move on.

    Can't remember the exact match but it was obviously vs Newcastle and I was about 13 I think.

    The thing is you'll get fans coming here saying it's ****.. the fact is overall it's arguably the best.... even in the very few games I've got to in recent times it's been good bad and absolutely ****e.

    The thing is football fans are so partisan they need their clubs arse licked too much imo and other clubs getting any praise they seem to take badly.

    Now can we move on ? I'm an honest lad and I've made my position crystal clear (excuse the pun)

    I've been to Millwall in the bad days
    No atmosphere just pure aggression
    Best place for atmosphere for me has been dirty Leeds United ,( maybe the makems but that is only because that is a derby game )
    Been to Elland Road about 5 times, always lots of noise
    Been to Sheff Wed and Utd Liverpool Ev
    Villa, Brum, Man City/ Man Utd West Ham Fulham Leicester Coventry Spuds, Arse, Boro
    Barnsley, Blackburn Bradford Preston Blackpool Oldham Rotherham Derby Forest

    Oh and by the way
    Your comment that no one likes Newcastle is total bollocks

    OK whatever you say let's just see if there's any banners at the ground tomorrow.. I'm sure they'll be letting us all know how much they like the club now.
