Why oh why oh why. As a northern eagle I was delighted last year to find out that the game with Huddersfield clashed with my birthday weekend and the Bank Holiday weekend. Of course, I know our form at the chip pan stadium is beyond poor but I still had high hopes of a good start to a great night out. Pah. Now I'm sure it's going to happen again.
Does this happen to anyone else?

Palace seem to never play on my birthday. The only time that my birthday (30th April) has come around since I started supporting Palace (January 1990) was in 1994. I thought we were going to win the championship on my birthday, but no, they move the game to the Sunday!

Typical!!! http://cpfc.org/ubb/dead.gif

I’m going to hit the big four O the Friday before the Sheff. Utd. home game, and I know that my nearest and dearest have got something secret planned (b@stards!). I just hope that I’m in a fit state to make it to Selhurst the next day!!!!

Last year we made it Naaargh for my birthday celebs, this year we've got the squatters on my birthday (away, I will be sitting in my usual seat!).

Only having a birthday once every 4 years doesn't help. My only recollection of match falling on my actual birthday was home to Norwich in 1992.

Because the official TV crew didn't turn up until half time, I ended up in the gantry videoing the first half on a hand-held Police Crowd Control camera.

There were 6 goals in the first half with Norwich leading 4-2 at the break. My tape was shown on ITV the following day and Elton Welsby took the right p1ss out of the quality - the barsteward.
