Heads up for anyone heading from the P*mpey side of the M27 tonight .... currently huge tailbacks on m27 from Eastleigh back to Whiteley - been there since crash at lunchtime.  The A27 no better with roadworks at Swanwick!!

I would rather sit in roadworks than attend a game at St Marys at the moment

I'd imagine there'll be plenty of Palace fans heading down the A3 and coming from that direction on the M27. Hopefully the start of a miserable evening for them. As if.

Yes, considerably. Never in a million years would players like Manning, Archer or Smallbone get into Palace’s match day squad, let one start.

While I agree these three players aren't the most talented, there's a lot of dross in the Palace team. The difference is they have talismen/match winners in Mateta and Eze which we don't have and their players are distinctly fitter and better schooled than ours...but they've got their Mannings and Smallbones. Clyne is playing for them FFS.

I see Juric has come out with a stirring 'come on lads, let's not be the worst team ever' speech. Hopefully, he'll play a striker today! And a Back 4!

Players in their actual positions! It's a bloody start Ivan. A clean sheet would be a huge step forward in our battle for survival.

Very optimistic ‘battle for survival’ line. Battle for avoiding being officially the worst ever premier league team is our only possible goal!

The player you’ve just compared to Manning and Smallbone has been playing PL football for 13 season and made around 250 top flight appearances for clubs including Liverpool. Whilst his fitness has often been questioned, when he is fit he is a far, far, far better player than Manning and Smallbone will ever be.

I think people underestimate just how substandard most of our players are. Palace may have some PL dross but many of our players are midtable Championship standard.

Pfft. Only 2 fullbacks! Need at to least 3 to be a proper Juric team.

So many in the first XI that'd struggle to make any of the other 19 EPL benches, some would barely make it into a championship first XI.

Woefully weak!

Very difficult to say with certainty which lineup is better. Shows really how little we have actually improved things from last year.
