My formative Charlton years were at Selhurst, and know the odd nice Millwall fan (he can't help who his Dad took him to support) so it's a lot closer for me than some of you. General preference is lots of bookings and sendings off, and Palace to just squeak through as it's less of a scalp for them to beat Millwall than the other way round
Palace. If you grew up near the Valley you probably know Millwall fans, you might even be friends with them. That means you know that, despite all the nonsense, they aren’t the reprobates that they themselves and the media portray them to be. Not sure I’ve ever actually met a Palace fan in real life so all I actually know are the Selhurst years alongside the horrendous plastic “fan culture” and limited grasp of both history and geography they’ve developed in the last decade or so.
silly question - millwall - despite having lots of mates and acquaintances who are millwall, i detest everything about them as a club - its a bit like being able to put it to one side if somebody votes conservative
Detest is a strong word but it is certainly Millwall for me.
I was historically always a little indifferent to Palace and, although their long period in the Premier League has been very irritating, Millwall’s scummy supporter element really do take the biscuit. They have a deeply repugnant element in their support and macho thuggery is baked into their DNA. A plague on their house.
There is no other team where I would conceivably be pleased to hear of a Crystal Palace win on penalties but tonight was such a night.

I think Saturday reinforced that a lot of them absolutely are the reprobates they and the media portray them to be. They will definitely have some normal, decent fans among them, two of them contribute on here and from how they post you know they’re decent chaps, but as was evidenced on Saturday, they still a very high concentration of scum amongst them.

The scum beat the true scum 4-2 on pens.
Them winning the cup last season was probably the worst day of my life football wise.

I mean Palace are good guys. They took us in when we needed a home.

I'm still having therapy for Les Brileys 30 yarder at Selhurst all those years ago.
