Yes I remember that game. Fucking Claridge and his fucking shin. But we beat Sheffield United a year later so all was good.
I still remember Leicester from their glory days same as Leeds and Notts Forest.
Back in 1990 though Palace finished 3rd in the top division and lost in the final of the FA Cup to Man Utd (cheating bastards).
We hold the record for being promoted/relegated the most times from the Premiership. We also hold the record for being relegated with the most points (although that was before the Premiership was reduced to 20 teams).
And one I didn't know about until earlier this season is that we also held the record for the highest attendance at a fourth tier game until Glasgow Rangers beat us at the beginning of this season.
Don't really remember Leicesters foray in to European football though.

Re: Championship 2012/2013
That's because both times we didn't make it to the second round draw
Our highest prem finish was about 8th I think, before that we were runners up several times in the sixties/seventies and we managed to lose 3 out of 3 FA Cup finals. Hurrah!
Well we managed to win last night, just. Apparently a drab game with a drab atmosphere and a drab attendance. About 18k I think. We need to beat Hull at the weekend and keep our 100% home record then hopefully learn how to get a point away from home!

We're lucky to get 18k. Only had 13k on Tuesday.

Re: Championship 2012/2013
Well that's it nearly every Burnley fan wants Eddie out... I wanted him out last season
but then He got a couple of wins and everyone was happy again but when you keep throwing away leads there is
nothing more he can do except leave and you can talk all your fucking Bournemouth rejects with you.

Re: Championship 2012/2013
To be fair we got the luck last night that we had so badly against us in the Blackburna nd Charlton games. We were apparently pretty poor and nuge's goal was a scuffed volley and Vardy's was a massive deflection. That and a wonder save from Kasper in the last min that prevented you getting the draw. As for any other games this season, sorry but I won't take ana wful lot of notice other than full time scores except for when we visit your place.

Re: Championship 2012/2013
Yeah, I suppose so but that's the problem the other team is always getting the "luck"
and now we sit 19th in the league... I know it's still early days and plenty of time to catch up
but we don't want to be playing catch up all season again. I haven't seen the goals or highlights but all I know is
Eddie's tactics didn't work in the second half and now we've played 6 and won 2 it's not looking too good.

Re: Championship 2012/2013
Same as Palace. We have thrown away two matches which we should have won, one of them we lost the other we drew.
Don't forget that Palace were 4th from bottom in mid-November and ended up getting promoted by the end of the season back in 2003/2004. Far too early to draw any sort of conclusions of the season until at least Christmas.

Re: Championship 2012/2013
You should know Burnley by now couldn't defend themselves against a fucking team of 80 year olds...
Although the officials robbed us of a onside 3rd goal.. fucking cunts. Well done on beating Bolton though
that was a nice thing to see on an otherwise shit weekend for me.
