A crystal palace fan making a lecture about identity is like George w bush making a lecture about invasions

Such a silly pointless football club.

Would anyone really miss palace if they dissapeared?

That video has taught me two things about Palace.

1) The Brighton/Palace rivalry is pathetic. If that's what instigates an 'intense' rivalry then most clubs in this country should have about 5-6 of these each.

2) Your supporters are WEIRD

1) you wouldn't understand a real rivalry. Even a pitiful club like millwall have you as number 3. Maybe try to have your own identity rather than copy us/millwall and people might take note of you. I'll be honest, it's quite sad really.

2) pot kettle black train spotters.

Well are we writing down locomotive numbers or are we performing in a big top? Can't be doing both,these things take time you know

I've said this before. The Stripey Nigels are the Glaziers not the Eagles. You can't change your own nickname, as my mate Shitface can confirm.

So who were your rivals before the late 70's

They were a normal club before the 70s. Then they completely re-branded, during a time football when football wasn't very commercial. Changing nickname, home kits and creating a rivalry with another pointless club.

nolly

Takes some doing hating a seaside club like Brighton

Quality of football, mostly.

Have your own identity? Pffffffffffft!

Remind me why you play in red and blue? Remind me why you're nicknamed the Eagles? Remind me why you started up the now defunct coaches to Selhurst? Remind me why you have cheerleaders on the pitch? Remind me when you wallys taught Italy about ultras?

I think you lot have a bit of an issue with 'identity'.

You're made up of more bits and pieces than 20 year old Fiesta!

Couldn't have put it better myself.

Fiiiiiish

Only in the way how they make me laugh, for example the picture of those 'Gamesmakers' with the foam hands.

How they claim we are clowns when they have people willing to dress like that for the club baffles me.

I'm ashamed to admit I was one of those 52k.

I was cheering Burnley on with some Sunderland fans though.

Yeah I went as well. I was going to Roger Manwood school in Forest Hill at the time, seemed like everybody half the school were going. 52k there but probably 40k neutrals!
