10 point deduction applied as of today.

Not good for them at all but still doesnt put them into the relegation zone.

If we don't get promoted, we might well be. Heh - if Leeds Charlton and Norwich all managed to cock up their promotion pushes, next season's second and third tiers will look like they've been swapped round

So, Palace will be the new "big team that shouldn't be down here" fanbase.

Theyve always been a bit of a weird team for me. Different from the other London clubs.

A Saints fan I know said he thought a typical Palace fan was a kids football coach who thought they knew everthing about football.

Judging by the table now, they should still be good enough to stay up. It just depends what effect this has on the fans, the players, and any potential transfer activity. If the gates fall or they have to let some players go then they could be in trouble.

Their gates have been dropping drastically for the last couple of years, most games now they only get 13-14k, which is well down on the previous decade. Main problem is where there used to be Palace shirts everywhere here ( i live 4-5 miles from their ground) All you now see is Chelsea, It's well depressing.

Agree. I used to see loads of Palace fans. A mate of mine is a season ticket holder and said that their gates have been getting worse and worse. Apparantly the club have tried everything to get people to come, i think they were virtually giving away season tickets in the summer.

More worringly, another Palace fan i know, who has been going for years, recently told me he was going to stop supporting Palace and become a Man Utd 'supporter' because ''they are better than palace, near the top of the league and are on tele more''Hes never even been to Manchester! I felt like punching him in the face. Its becoming more and more common, no wonder teams are getting into money problems with all these fans chosing to support big teams because they are good.

I can see a fair-weather/occasional fan doing it, but not someone who has followed a team for years could do that. Disgraceful.

I lived in a house with a Palace fan in my Uni days. He took some of my CDs home with him when we left. For that reason I don't like Palace.
