    A perfect match up really.

    Woolwich Polly masquerading as a university.

    Palarse masquerading as a South London football club.

    Palace still haven't quite got over the fact that we relegated them 20 years ago. 

    It still eats away at them and they continue to suffer from that memory alone.

    The only way they can dissolve the pain is steal our sponsorships....employ Deano....win a few trophies etc.

    This whole saga is not actually about palace at all....it is actually about us.

    I believe Richard Murrary was brainwashed by a palace cult leader to hire Ian dowie as manager. 

    Wouldn't surprise me if Simon Jordan was photographed with Roland in 2012 while they exchange a briefcase and a smirk. 

    I know they have Chelsea this afternoon, but I saw some bloke in gravesend wearing a Palace shirt. It is very rare to see that kind of thing. 

    It is time to investigate what is really going on here
    All an identity crisis, trying to convince themselves they truly own the whole of SE London. As unlikely as it is, if we got promoted to the Premier League that would soon put them back in there place.

    Patient zero. 

    Every time I hear that name I'm reminded of why we're where we are.  

    (Palace just had a goal disallowed.  That's cheered me up a tiny bit)

    very strange move by the University of Greenwich - idiots  
    I really don’t understand why it’s a strange move or they are idiots - does their partnership with Palace in any way impact on their partnership with us?


    tbh i don't know why a university would sponsor a football team - sort of makes sense as they r next door to us at avery hill but why they would give money to a team in croydon who are already getting loads of money from tv companies. i have no idea 
    More marketing = more students = more money.
    bizzarre really - should be state owned - when i was there i got marked down for something for bad grammar - at the time there were loads of chinese students there who couldn't even speak english, let alone write it - i asked how often they were marked down for their gammar - bit like arguing with the wife though really - the more right you are, the worse it gets - they were paying a lot of money to be there and i wasn't is the bottom line

    Slightly insulting, they should be partnering with Croydon College or whatever dump near them
    crazy that UoG have partnered with CPFC - having been so engrained in both CAFC and CACT work the last few years!
    There's goes my idea about trying to build a Charlton W media team based out of University media students. Probably wouldn't of worked anyway but definitely not a shame to try.

    Well that would explain why he doesn't denounce him on  talksport, in contrast to Jim White.

    Here is club from Croydon pretending to be South London whilst massaging their history on a whim. 
    Considering that they preceded Association Football itself by 2000 years it took until now to win a devalued trophy that the big clubs don't give a toss about so that the likes of them have an easier path to win. All those thousand of years of non achievement is quite an achievement in itself!
    Real South London club Charlton Athletic won it when it was THE trophy to win.
    They should have been sponsored by Croydon College or the Sex Shop in Norbury- more their mark.

    Try Ravensbourne, based on the peninsula and more likely to do media studies

    The University of Greenwich is now merging with the University of Kent, though it seems like more of a takeover by Greenwich.

    Kent is the larger of the two by most measures but I don't know how sound they are financially. Possible that Greenwich are more viable financially and are 'rescuing' Kent.

    According to that article, Greenwich have almost twice as many students as Kent.

    Kent are finanically in such a deep hole, it needs Greenwich to bail them out
