Adidas gear with Palace colours

While browsing the Adidas online store last week I came across some Adidas Originals gear that had 'Palace colours'.

It's the Firebird range and they seem to be reproducing a lot of old kits and gear that they had out in the eighties. I am not saying these examples are Palace related but they can be passed off as such. i especially like the old Adidas logo over the modern one.

I remember the old Adidas kit we had in the early 1980s, in particular the Red Rose kit of 1983-1984. That kit had a shade of blue that is similar to the lighter blue examples here. The darker blue might be more appealing to the younger fans as we tend to sport a darker shade these days.

Either way, I thought I would post this in case there is anyone else who might be interested. They are doing tracksuit tops, tee-shirts and tracksuit trousers. I am in no way a "full kit wanker" or whatever the term is but it is nice to have a bit of read and blue on at every available opportunity.

Arsenal last day of the season

As thing stand, Arsenal stand to win the Premier League at Selhurst Park on the last day of the season. I have mixed emotions because while I dislike Arsenal with all my heart it would be nice to see Ebs lift another trophy at Selhurst Park.

Let's be honest. I can't see us putting up much of a fight given that 4 days later we're playing a final.

Oliver Glasner and and the January 'meltdown' (again)

I know the fans are split about what happened in January but last night it was referenced a couple of times that we were thin on numbers and struggling over Christmas and in January. In particular by Adam Warton in the post match interview. Does this not show/prove OG was telling the truth?

Let's separate how he did what he did. Sometimes it is not what you do but the way that you do it (Bananarama and Fun Boy Three reference) but who hasn't done stupid shit out of desperation? I know I have after not being listened to time and time again. What else do you do?

Looking back, getting the money for Guehi was the right thing to do because we've managed in the cup. We could have done with an extra CB coming in but that is a different issue. Canvot has stepped up brilliantly.

Had JP left I think it would have been a different story too. I was pissed off when he did what he did and was prepared to not forgive him but last night... I couldn't help buy put all that to one side when I saw how happy he was to be part of the team. I don't forgive easily and I still have an issue with Ian Wright not to mention Clive Allen!

I think Larsen is a better finisher than JP but JP is a bigger handful. We've needed both players. We wouldn't be in the final without them both even if they did not contribute a lot of goals in the process.

Going forward... Win, lose or draw I hope OG and JP are forgiven for January and it is forgotten as part of the bigger picture because, as a 50+ year old Palace fan, what a fucking great 12 months we've had, overall!

My other wish is that Johnson is put on penalty duty. That poor fucker needs a goal. Okay, not if we get one in the final but in the league games... Just play him every game. He needs the time.

On a personal note, I was sent for a prostate cancer check. I had the test this morning, luckily it was a blood test and not the old fashioned way. I was in the waiting room thinking about the negative impact of a positive test. Of course, I don't want to test positive and I don't want to pop my clogs but... I honestly felt like I didn't care because I've see us win the cup and Charity Shield (fuck the new name).

For years, it's all I ever wanted in life. Yeah, I have a girlfriend and we never wanted kids so I don't have them to think about. She will miss me but get over it, probably quicker than I'd like but c'est la vie! That is typical dark English humour for you.

We spend too long being angry with people and I am as guilty as anyone. I already mentioned Wright and Allen... I can find a way to love Wrighty but not Allen! :) It's the same in my family. One brother not talking to another for 15 years over some really fucking silly argument about politics. Another family member disowning another because they voted Brexit. What the fuck?

We have different views. We all have our own way of doing things. Should I stop talking to the Arsenal fans I know? Well, yes I should, that is a given especially if they win the league and the cup. God help me! :)

All I mean is, when someone does something we object to as long as their intentions were right we should forgive them. Not forget what they did, but forgive. OG wanted what was best for CPFC... JP, not so much. If I can look past that, and I am a self-confessed c**t then you should be able to as well.

I'm sorry for the long post. if you made it this far, good news. You probably don't have ADHD (I do) but I really would like the fans to put everything behind us and remember OG and JP for what they have done for us.

Nobody is more surprised than me to read that. Up the Palace!

Initial add folder dialogue/rescan box - how to find it?

When first starting the app there is a dialogue box to add folders. There is also a rescan button in the box. I have looked everywhere but I can't find where I can get that box back up without first clearing the cache and storage.

It is a major pain in the arse to have to add 80+ playlists into the internal database again but that is another issue. :)

If we the qualify for the final, the club should immediately start selling shirts with the Conference League badges and the final details embroidered on the shirts. I hope they don't wait until September to bring out a version because win or lose fans would want the shirt as a memento.

I know other sites will be all over this. If you know, you know.
