The trouble there, is that London is effin huge. This is what some people on here don't grasp. London isn't a city like Leeds or Manchester. It's a collection of smaller towns that have been joined into one entity by urban sprawl. That's why you have so many football clubs in London. They all represent their own portion of London. I think that in itself has been one of the reasons the London club has failed to make an impact in terms of built up support. Well that and their gypsy nature of getting moved to new areas every couple of years.
Just to put that in perspective. From Fulham to Crystal Palace, that's a move of about 10 miles.
Their next move to Barnet Copthall is another 20 miles.
Then to The Valley, that's about 7 miles
Then to Twickenham Stoop which is about 17 miles.
Then back to The Valley, so that's another 17 miles back again
The out to Griffin Park, another 15 mile trip.
The finally back to The Stoop, which is only 5 miles or so.
So that's 91 miles give or take that the London club has had to cover in just the last 30 years. Or to put that another way, it's almost like moving Hull FC to Salford.
That they've held on to any fans is a testament to those fans and the club.
