As a Dutchman I've visited about 12 clubs in the UK. All were boring and silent. Once I went to Selhurst the club stole my heart. Personally I'm not a big fan of drums, but the atmosphere is the best of the PL and so I visit Palace a couple of times a year standing with the Ultra's. Up the Palace!!

Simple solution. Let us stand again. Sitting down killed the atmosphere.

Championship actually has good atmosphere as it hasnt been rinsed with plastic supporters, and still has good attendances and big clubs like Leeds, Villa, Forest, Derby, Boro, Sheff Wed, and some other teams with good support. 10x better than the prem

People seem to forget the 70s when we had terraces and fans were allowed to have flags and banners before it all became sanitised. Can't even bring banners into Wembley stadium "because it might cover the advertising boards"

God I love Palace support. They're loud, have catchy, chants, funny as hell and they never stop. Unfortunately, football in the UK has been so corporatised, and sterilized. Best of luck to them.

6:05 the guy in the car states it perfectly. So many plastic fans in plastic shitty stadiums that’s what the game has become

9:23 nice little spin from the policeman aha

“France to a degree” lmao what..? France has some of the most legit Ultra groups in the World.

Respect to Palace fans for their passion and the atmosphere they create at home games. Keep on keepin' it real.

When you have over zealous stewards telling you to sit down at home is it any wonder the atmospheres are dying?

9:24 whats that police officer doing 😂😂

Never really established in the uk because you can't stand up you can't have a beer oh and if you dare have pyro expect a knock on your door by the old bill a jail sentence and a ban from every ground in the country oh and let's not mention if you want to watch your club home and away you have to re mortgage your home to pay for it

I lived one street away from Selhurst and the Palace fans are amazing. As a Spurs fan, always loved going there amazing atmosphere and easy to journey home...

Aberdeen FC, in Scotland are trying to improve their atmospheres too. The Glasgow Celtic - Glasgow Rangers game is a intense game.

“Never caught on in the uk” you just haven’t been to Glasgow have use

When they say uk they mean epl. Everyone forgets Scottish football calm down

Doncaster fan here I watched Doncaster Rovers vs Crystal Palace and there support is unbelievable

We've been at Old Trafford for 109 years. Atmosphere has nothing to do with how old the stadium is- it's about the noisy element being priced out of the game.

How is the drum unique nearly every lower league game has at least 1 drum

The psychology of Ultras fascinates me

More videos like this mate from teams all over the UK.

As a Turkish fan and member of the Beşiktaş çArşı group I can say this. What your doing is great. But I dont think it can go too far in England. The ticket prices lead to rich, posh people coming and sitting down. Also the culture is different there. You have humour, banter, spontaneous chants written on the spot. But we don’t have that because fans here in eastern europe are aggresive. This is because our view of the sport is different. You go to the games to have fun with your mates, watch some good football, and then go back to your nice lives. Here in the eastern european countries such as Turkey, Greece and so on; the economy is shit wich leads to our lives being shit. So we go to the games because the stands are our life. It is the only place where we are free to go fucking mental and forget our troubles. So don’t have banter, we have pyro, noise and fights. Anyways I like your ultras and we are all brothers at the end of the day. ⚫️⚪️🦅+🔴🔵🦅

How come we do so badly at home, if we've got the support?

“I don’t go to see palace win, I just go for the banter.” Says it all about us doesn’t it!

Decent bunch of ultras- respect from Glasgow Celtic 🍀

It's great they have tried to do something to improve the atmosphere @ Selhurst. I went a few times in the late 80's early 90's and as a United supporter I along with many other reds had to go to the Palace end as United always sell out their allocation. Back then the only significant noise came from the United fans. Tbf to Palace they were not the only club like that. There were loads of clubs who couldn't fill their own terraces without other United fans in their ends. Cov, Wimbledon, Bolton, Villa, were among the ones I remember. Celtic Park also suffered from a very poor atmosphere if they were not playing a top European club or Rangers. They also started their own brand of ultras but unfortunately they have become political which should simply not play any part in a specific football club imo!

I remember Selhurst Park being really quiet in the Championship. This will all die down. Just like it did at Stoke. Stoke's was the most atmospheric ground in the Premier for a while. Then what happened?

Palace were always known for being quiet and timid and since these ultras popped up their atmosphere is louder but fuck me it's cringeworthy, middle class rebellion at it's worst.

Best atmosphere in England and one of the best in Europe

You should make a video like this when frankfurt plays against chelsea next week

As much as its true palace fans are amazing and easily the best in england. The stuff they were saying about selhurst park is ballocks having an old stadium doesnt make your support any better, its fans reasoning for why they dont have a new ground

“Liverpool’s boring.” What? We’ve played at Anfield for 127 years, and it’s renowned throughout the whole world as being an amazing place to play, were the most unbelievable things happen, a la Barcelona just 4 days ago. Lol, Crystal Palace.

They werent even there when they had a friendly against Hertha BSC we had to show them what a proper Ultra group is and show them how to play football too with a 4-0 win for Hertha

They say uk are they forgetting the green brigade (ultras celtic) union bears (rangers ultras) hands down two of the best atmospheres in Europe, and the old firm it seems to be disregarded completely, our fans outclass anything England has to offer full stop

The fa cup attendance between Palace and Brighton put to bed any idea that it’s a massive derby.

Reminding me a little of turf moor here. Of course I'm biased as a claret myself but that place has a special energy

I'm Andy a wednesdayite but I've ALWAYS said palace are some of the best fans around. Loud and passionate and friendly!

Hillsborough killed it. An overreaction to a problem that could have been easily solved by tearing down high fencing and proper marshalling procedures. Safe standing will bring back the terrace culture. Also stop banning use of flags and banners. The US has come a long way - check out the college leagues in basketball and football - they have an interactive culture that encourages fans to support their teams - for the past 20 years the FA have done everything in their power to make the fans their last consideration.

Anyone go to the FA cup Pre match party at Coventgarden that was some mad scenes...

The few years after the Arthur Waite stand was seated the atmosphere was split up and was pretty dire for a while . Now though that passionate support must really lift the players. Holmesdale Holmesdale give us a song !!

Come to sincil bank that's a unique atmosphere

It seems a bit lazy to suggest that only Palace have adopted this style of support in England's top tier. Huddersfield, Leicester and Middlesbrough all have atmosphere groups that adopt a typically more European approach when it comes to support.

I went to school at Lanfranc and lived at fawnton eeff pond ---I am now retired and live in Leeds after leaving the RAF---but it's still Palace for me --I used to go to the Holmsedale end with the 'oval road ' boot boys when Gerry Queen was doing the bizzo. Would go now if I could but am disabled and housebound ----COYP

Lived in Croydon in the eighties and went to all Eagles games . In those days the atmosphere was not as loud.

I wish zaha would stay and I'm a liverpool fan..

Middlesbrough have an 'ultras'. Even as a boro fan i don't think they are very ultra, but call themself it and so technically are ultras

they are not even loud just have a sky sports mic down their throat every game that’s on tv

The policeman at 9:24 😂😂

Huddersfield have a great atmosphere. I'd say Liverpool we create atmosphere againts the big teams not teams like palace

I wish more English clubs has ultras

Been there a few times over the years as an away fan ,you know I like the place to be honest the fans also .

"Never caught on in the UK" Nice to see DW recognising an independent Scotland ✊

Palace been creating a good atmosphere for ages now. I missed a full match on sky cos I kept watching the lads singing and jumping about. Absolute quality. Fair play palace. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿👍

I went to see Palace vs Swansea in 2015 as part of a sports abroad trip while in college, and the experience was like nothing else. I am used to stadiums of 100,000 plus as a college football fan in the USA, and the passion of the fans within Selhurst Park was unmatched by even the most passionate fans in the states. I chose Chelsea as my favorite team when I originally started following the EPL, but after the experience I had there, Palace won me over. I support both clubs, though odd being a London derby between the two. Chelsea first, but Palace Palace Palace all the way. Go Eagles!

When I was a young boy my father said to me listen here my son your C.P.F.C here we are you’ll know us by our noise pride of south London the famous palace boys 💙♥️♥️💙♥️♥️♥️🦅🦅🦅

I have a soft spot for Palace, used to live 30 second walk from Selhurst Park in Early 2000s..I saw them quite a few times but I was a Milwall fan. Even so, they are great supporters and I always look out for their results.

I heard the Palace fanatics get a free Winnie the pooh annual with every season ticket

In Scotland ultra style singing sections are now really popular with drums and flags. pretty much every team in the premiership has one.

I'm Arsenal, and I love it. You have my respect. More should be like you over here.

Not all English fans get this but fair play to Palace for creating an atmosphere.I'm old enough to remember the 70's/80's when fans stood up and atmosphere's were in a different league to today especially in the Premier League.I agree with the Palace fans about soulless bowls as sadly my club has been put in the worst one of all.Tourists and fans with no passion for West Ham.The exact opposite of who we were at Upton Park.Palace away is one of my favourite days out now as it's a old fashioned stadium and a rare ground where home fans create a good atmosphere.Great vid by the way.

Use say ultras have never caught on in the uk. Come to Glasgow and u will see proper ultras on both sides of the old firm

I never get why Brighton v C Palace is a Derby. When one team is from the coast and the other is SE London.

What was that officer in the background doing at 9:23😂😭

One of best support in the premiership easily

9:20 the copper in the background omfg

Supporter from Finland here.KEEP MAKING NOISE BOYS!!!!!

You are a saint whoever made this

Villa and blues is the biggest derby in England 🤦‍♂️Palace Brighton derby is no where near the second city derby

Are palace fans generally all thick then or just these ones??

If you ever do anything on palace again you can get footage from my channel

Not ultras just plebs with a drum

Holmesdale fanatics:only ultras in england. Clapton ultras:hold my beer

I am so proud of my club :)

Obviously never been to Goodison at home.

Drums and flags are unique in the country, never been to a league one game

crystal palace and panionios always together

Did he just compare Palace v Brighton to Liverpool vs Everton?? Hhahahahaha

1:45 is that you holley? i think i know you from togo

Im not sure if I heard her correctly but did she say that Liverpools atmosphere is appalling?

RESPECT to the palace Ultras. I love the hooligan/casual culture too but this is great.

This style of support had been happening in celtic for years so it may be new to England and fair play to palace but it's not new to the UK.

Did you see that: At 9:22 minutes: The Twirling Policeman. This is good. God bless his spirits.

PSG ultras made alot of noise at OT this season.

2:33 "...but for the UK" Yeah tell that to celtic's safe standing section

That drum does my head in. Great support, but leave the drum at home and do it.

I just came here when Crystal Palace battered us Arsenal..though it was 2-2 all (Oct2021)...well played

The atmosphere at most grounds has gone. Songs that have been sung at opposing fans for decades are now considered ‘ homophobic or racist or even anti Semitic.’ Yet those songs are part of the rivalry of football. Football is a totally different sport now to the one I used to watch every week back in the 80’s and early 90’s. Not different in a good way either.

Come down to The Den for some proper atmosphere.

10:08 Yalla 03!

At the Doncaster game the HF were not in the face masks ... They had some European guests over I believe...

9:17 haha copper givin em a spin good man

Miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiillllllllll COYLLLLLLLL

I ain't no Liverpool fan, but you can't really call there atmosphere boring 😂

I, vividly., recall one occasion,as a MILLWALL fan, when I,single-handedly ,took on the whole of The Shelf and Park Lane If there was one of them there must have been 10,000 in front of me.It was a "Gary Cooper style" Stand - Off" and all I had to protect me was a Hydrogen Bomb and 50 Grenades and they began to advance towards me.I assumed they were all on drugs wanting to take me on as they were only being 10,000 strong .I retained the most extraordinary calm which disconcerted them and I attacked. Within 3 minutes all 10,000 were scattered along Seven Sisters Road.I will never forget it......then there was another occasion...SHOOT ! I have to go as I am in the most fearful rush as I have "8" coming for supper ce soir in my Suburban Paradise . Toodle-Pip Old Chap....

I'm from Finland so this impresses me. But to be honest, more than one person in the audience would impress me 😂.

Wolves is quite good too ;)

Ultras have been in Scotland for nearly 2 decades. It makes the atmosphere 100 times better. Corteos, tifos, are class.

Personally places such as championship and people like charlton Sunderland in league one have great atmospheres proper football

At Arsenal we have begun a block 26 group with concourse and flags. Only for the last half of the season but next season hopefully will grow and the club are supportive which is good. Safe standing needs to come to England though.

You want to see the best derbys come to scotland. There's been ultras here for decades and we've got the best atmospheres in the UK
