Lets face it were already promoted

Its a fact, why the opposition will even bother to turn up next season is a mystery. The expectation is rising and I can feel that anything but champions is going to be looked up on as utter failure. Depending on how many read my blog , I would love to know bloggers and readers opinion as to where they think we are going to finish. The honest truth is, this team now, has no resemblance to the previous team that got relegated with Curbishley. At that time he was a genius in my eyes and the team he put together on a shoestring, had a combination of skill, grit and great determination . Curbishley bought very wisely and until he was suddenly presented with a big budget, after the Parker sale, really didn't make a bad deal. Young a lot of money but proved himself in the end . Euell three great seasons as top scorer but what went wrong, we will never know. Deano, Kinsella ,Robinson fantastic. Andy Hunt what a great free
The best of all our hat-trick hero Clive Mendonca bought for £50o,000, or not a lot more, although he didn't really feature so much in our promotion season.
As I got back from work in eager anticipation of seeing my season ticket . My daughter had opened the envelope on my request, when I phoned from work, so I knew it was there, I cant pretend , anything but promotion is going to be devastating to me. The bad old days haunt me, like , when I used to hide behind the sofa watching tales of Mystery and Imagination, if anyone remembers that black and white tv series, I will be utterly gob smacked.

It does make me chuckle to see how high the expectations of your fans are. Ultimately; you're squad isn't that great. You will find out how hard it is to compete in this division, next season.

I reckon you can make the playoffs, but to 'expect' anymore is just crazy.

Good luck for the season.. us normal Palace fans are just looking forward to the days we get to play Brighton (our real rivals) again.

Is there such a thing as a normal Palarse fan (why would anybody who is considered normal want to watch a team(?) of deadbeats?). Hopefully Palarse will be playing Brighton in season 2008/09 in League 1. After all it's were they belong.

A team of deadbeats, huh?

Nice.

Until you Charlton fans realise how much of an embarrassment you are to the human race, there is little point even attemtping to reason with you.

All your good players have left and have been replaced by Championship level players.Remember that Pardew failed to get West Ham back up in their first season after relegation.Same fate for you this year.And what will happen to all those Gills fans you bussed in to fill the valley ? Tossers

Nice to see the Nigels can use intelligent debate to get there point across. I am not sure why you Croydon Cretins come onto Charlton sites when we're not even your rivals.
We'll all just have to wait and see what happens when we play at Sainsburys, "try something new today" like winning a home game, and of course when you attend a proper ground in proper South East London. Although obviously for us it's just another game but for you it will be your biggest and most important games of the season.
