I will undoubtedly get a few pelters for this, but I don't know how enjoyable it will be, in the sense last season it was very much unexpected, long over due, us against the world, and who knows what's next. I don't know what could top that feeling in terms of a promotion. I don't know how excited I am going to feel about going back up next season, knowing what is coming, especially when the teams up there will be a year further ahead of us, that we will need another overhaul and even then we could still end up doing a Norwich and coming back down again.
I am sure I will get roped into it again in some way, but I can't be the only one who has had their fingers burned with this Premier League stuff. Maybe chasing an actual league title for the first time since 1992 will be what draws me in, if we are up there. As for Playoffs, I suppose we can finally play new Wembley but the stress of Playoffs is another thing altogether!
I guess had we had a little more to enjoy I may feel differently, but the idea of doing this Premier League stuff again isn't really inspiring me. Is it just me? |  |

They all live in Croydon don't they? Poor sods. |
Must do. Or there just aren't that many (or they're not keen on showing their colours during the week). Selhurst is a bit smaller than PR and their average attendance this season is less than that, just over £25k. |  |

I don't think it is unreasonable to suggest knowing what the Premier League is like now, and having lived through an existing promotion, that next season won't have the same level of engagement for me, even if we go up.
There haven't been any credible arguments put forward as to why we'd be any better in the Premier League if we were promoted again anyway, we'd need a whole new squad again, which will surely cost in excess of another 100 million.
I am just not that excited about being hammered every week again, I just don't see how we can catch up with the established 17 now. |
You try telling the people that were at Wembley that it wasn't exciting when Burley took us up because it is a day most will not forget, even though it wasn't automatic promotion.
There have been plenty of credible arguments but you choose not to listen. We'd more than likely have a brand new training facility built and in place, more time for developments within the scouting department and the key thing for me is that it gives the likes of Greaves, Clarke, Philogene and Hutch the time to develop further.
Palace had been up and down a few times, as had Fulham and Bournemouth. Even West Ham, Villa, Wolves and Newcastle have suffered relegations and gone back up. All of which have then had longer periods in the Prem. |  | | |

Just give up on football, mate. I don't think it's for you. |  |

For me - yes, the race would be exciting and I'm well up for that.
It's the summer before starting the PL season that I'd find massively less exciting than this time around. |  |
