Palace fan here in peace..sort of.
Firstly congratulations on what is a magnificent facility and one you must be truly Proud of. Teething issues in our bit was the beer kept running out and the infrastructure getting away was fucking awful. Your noise level was excellent when you bothered to sing, but to have “ come on you Spurs” displayed on your electronic screen to encourage you to join in is truly gut wrenchingly embarrassing .
I don’t normally register of other fans boards but on this occasion I thought you would Like to hear what I’m about to say.
I’m sorry to tell you this but new stadium but still a segment of muggy fans. We left the stadium only came down the stairs at the back only to be attacked by some of your big hard lads. I am aware (and can provide photos) of a lady (I believe to be a spurs fan) to be knocked out of her wheelchair when your lot charged the Palace fans. The fighting broke out between both sets of supporters and a 15 school girl I know was taken to an ambulance with a shoulder injury (spoke to her this morning not serious) this injury was caused by the police on horseback trying to separate the two groups. Really Spurs? You have a great new stadium that will last you through to the next century, but some of your fans dragging your name back to the 1970’s.
That all said, on the flip side, I did meet a couple of older Spurs lads who we had a great chat/banter with. Someone will pick up on the “flair” in the Palace end, and before you say anything not acceptable I agree,
Come on Spurs this is 2019.
I hate violence
That's 'cos it is a wall of people!!Fuck that looks like a wall of people
do you stand up when you drive your car?Really enjoyed the majority of the game yesterday until some twat in the park lane told me to sit down. I told him where to go but can't believe some idiots have got season tickets in the "wall of noise" and want to sit all game. What an absolute shower.
The more of the complaints about the stadium I see, the more it reminds me of a kid who opens up a present at Christmas and feels disappointed afterwards.
The build-up and anticipation becomes so much that you go into an event like this expecting nothing but perfection, when the reality is that there will always be teething problems. Even if the event is brilliant (which it absolutely was), you still come out of it feeling a little bit let down.
A bit of perspective. This was history. This is our home.
I never in my life sat during the game. I know your english culture is different, but fuck me that's boring. How can you sing while sitting? It's okay for older people, but I never understood that obssesion, must sit during games.do you stand up when you drive your car?

Fucking hell, I never ever thought I would agree with Clash, yet here I am agreeing with him.
You're a numpty.
Well, I had three old blokes behind me getting annoyed because I was apparently sitting wrong... I honestly don’t know why some people go to live football when they seem to hate everything about it.
If Sissoko has been as poor as most of the rest of the team since January we’d be mid table
