I was with my son's at Palace away, unbelievable day.
The fans stayed behind long after the final whistle,chanting , We are going
to win the league.
It was an,I was there experience,that will long live in the memory of
all who were there.
It was the day on which it finally dawned on the fans that the impossible could actually happen.
We could never have imagined how things would change to the situation we are in now.
The fans are totally disenchanted with the club,and the owners have gone from being worshipped to being sadly disliked,and there seems to be no end to the depths to which we have sunked and are still sinking.
I just find it so sad,have had season ticket for thirty years,
not sure if I want to renew,not sure if I want to go again this season.
I am sure there are many who feel the same.
Just so unbelievable and so sad.
Nine years ago today!!

Comedowns are always sadness inducing.

totally agree with thorney.i am trying to look a the positive things next season.with a possible points deduction and transfer ban we might see young players from the under 21s who actually care and try to do their best while wearing the shirt unlike some rubbish this season.

I was there too, that bit at the end of the game where we were chanting we're going to win the league was awesome. The guy on the tannoy begging us to go home!
Hopefully next season we'll get a new DoF and a manager with the requisite experience. And a team that looks like they care about wearing the shirt.
Of course, I might wake up to the nightmare of ongoing carp decisions, such as Danny being given a contract extension etc!

I genuinely believe that you don't fully appreciate the highs without suffering the lows.
And if the lows didn't hurt you to your soul, there'd be no point in being a fan.
You still have your club. I still have mine and my god, does my blood pressure know it!
Be proud and have a good weekend.
