I spoke to Pierre Sage for a good 15+ minutes last Thursday afternoon in Istanbul 1-2-1 at the Ritz Carlton Hotel. He came across as such a great guy who has passion and ambition for the club I love he has the same goals and agenda I have that is to leave it in a better when we leave. I arrived and have supported Palace through thick and thin since 1980 obviously longer than Pierre as he was 6 months old. The people who are running our club are destroying us. If they put into the club the same amount as us loyal fans instead of only wanting to take out all would be good but they are Buisness people who are only interested in making money. They’ve employed people who are only interested in maximising profits, finding new ways of earning more money and couldn’t care less in the destruction of our values of our club. We’ve had our club hijacked piece by piece. They are not interested in our views or our identity. They are so arrogant they think they know best and drive their vision of our club through no matter what. I’m sick of token gesture groups set up who think they know what’s best for us it’s all a con they’re being manipulated and just yes people. Our loyalty is being betrayed. Crystal Palace is built on our fan base. The real fanbase not tourists or the rich day trippers that want to experience our uniqueness built on Our Blood , Sweet and tears I’m afraid that’s not for sale. You can sell your corporate packages but you can’t sell us the heart beat the grit the passion of the club. I’ve never considered not attending Palace my whole lifetime it would be inconceivable but the whole package that is being served to us at the moment is unacceptable, unpalatable and a disgusting disgrace. Anyone decent in the staff has also left or wants to leave. They’re are also a lot of good decent staunch people left in our club certain players, plenty of coaching staff etc. In 896 home games I’ve been to Selhurst Park yesterday was a top 5 bad experience , A Rock Bottom if things don’t change rapidly it’s end of . I ain’t talking about Sage either it’s the hierarchy and the people in senior positions either get in the trenches with us or go away or we’ll go away. I hope it’s not too late but maybe it is they haven’t got their fingers on the pulse like we have because they are not the heartbeat of our club Never in 46 years have I ever experienced such a disconnect between us fans and the club it’s beyond comprehension. You’ll need a smaller ground not a larger ground with all this Americanisation of our club We want our club back. ⚰️ ❤️💙🦅
