comfortable win for Palace, we can barely win/score even when our strikers are available. Very easy money to be made on the Palace win to cover the cost of Christmas. We will return stronger for the Brentford game.

Thats a shame, Guita is shite.

So is Butland (famous last words) based on his time at Stoke shortly before he left.

Anyone else think Lewis should be given a chance ahead of Willy C? Willy was terrible against Arsenal - couldn't catch a corner, didn't move to save the second (although that was 80% the non-defending in front of him, better goalies might still have saved that header) gave away chances on poor distribution..

It strikes me that even third choice goalkeepers have to pass some kind of standard to earn a professional contract no?

When is there ever a better opportunity than now to give him a chance to prove himself.

Willy had the chance and failed to rise to the occasion (sorry, I will stop it...)

I was hoping covid would sweep through the club and the next two fixtures would be called off. Probably just me though 😉

Wouldn’t be the worst thing to get a few strikers back!

Think that door was well & truly shut before Saturday. RH isn’t renowned for  u turns either. It’s FF if he’s fit or Willy or maybe Theo?

He thinks he's Kloppy, ... mind you Liverpool have had our best players

As a last resort I think we should start applying dirty tactics and get in opposition faces. We need to get a minimum of 5 opposition players sent off every game for the rest of the season. 

Yes, there will be sacrifices as Romeu will be running around the pitch lika a whirling dervish and will probably get himself sent of around 20 times but it's time we saw a tut replaced with a double footed scissor tackle with the odd headbutt thrown in.

I’m a scratch golfer, I just don’t have the game to illustrate it!!

I take it you never watched Tommy Forecast play then.

According to the official website we will have to "pre-register our covid status" to get admission. They don't say how you do that, we are meant to get an email but I haven't seen anything yet.

Sorry - didn't know where to post this. Am trying to book some tickets to an upcoming away game. selected three seats next to each other. website says these seats are not contiguous. They are. Confused. Anyone know? Glitch in the booking engine?

I just call and speak to someone if the site is playing up - they will sort it, it's how I buy seats when the number I want "leaves one seat remaining as well" - ticket office can sort it for you.

seems to be a glitch in the booking site, they agreed. tickets for seats next to each other come with a warning that they are not next to each other. Perhaps Ralph is in charge of that selection and formation too 😉

No idea if we’ve sold out, but I now have one spare ticket face value for Dellhurst tomorrow. 
Let me know if you’re interested. 

Sold out weeks ago but I'd have thought there'd be a few knocking about now after the crap of recent games and the ballsache it has now become to go to a football match.

If Leeds sack Bielsa/ he walks should we consider him?

Why would we want him... when his team is currently below Hasenhüttl's despite him spending more?

This is a battering. Leeds have given up. I wonder if their forum will have an equivalent of SKDMan bringing it up every two days for years.

'Upcoming' is such a shit word and almost invariably not necessary, A fixture is simply a bloody fixture and once it's been played it's a result.

And my heart sinks when the radio tells me there is a delay on a particular road because of an 'earlier' accident. I'd rather they told me about one that's about to happen.

I see Vieira is using the old reverse psychology trick on his Palace players by telling them how good we were against Arsenal. Yeah Patrick, we were sensational.

Oh Christ, our lot will be strutting about lapping up this adulation. Meanwhile Zaha and Gallagher get stuck in and smash 4 past our hapless stand in goalie.

A battering, given up, yet still managed to avoid shipping 9 😬😬
 

It takes a special kind of shitness to ship 9, that’s why it’s only happened in this league 3 times. Twice for the same club, under the same manager.

Or an unjustified red card or two.

This week is a big one for us, starting tonight at Selhurst Park...we need to start picking up some more wins to distance ourselves from the drop zone...need a big result somewhere!
 

Hoping for 4 points this week to calm the nerves before Christmas...I'll be there tonight in full voice! COYS!

Well if we're going to get pedantic then using 'not necessary' instead of 'unnecessary' is, um, 'not unshit'.
