Sooner this season is over the better.
Next one will be the same if they don't change the manager - boring football, don't try to win cups or difficult league games, ambition simply to stay up.

One thing that perhaps went unmentioned......the crowd gave Danny Gabbidon a fantastic reception.

I saw one of them in the run on Saturday and thought it was odd. I wouldn't have thought Palace to have many day-trippers.

Welcome to the new age of English (top flight) football.

Expected more from the Palace support tbh, very generic.
Loud when they went 1 up but plenty of periods of silence.

Probably down to the fact their ultras weren't there, they went to their U18 against Brighton instead.
Shame as everyone was out for them expecting similar to what they done at Arsenal / Tottenham.

That game ended before 13:00, they could have made it easy.

They chose not to have a group presence due to our inflated prices.
Cheaper to watch their team at The Emirates or WHL...

I don't know why though, after a great first season he was sh*t!!!! Scott Parker killed himself for us and got booed, I know he joined them but still. Gabs played like a retard for large parts of his West Ham career and gets that :?

I would have needed three guesses to forecast the result on Saturday.

I wasn't optimistic. And there were no surprise performances.

It has come to this... just seeing the season out hoping for a U turn from the purchasing dept in the Summer.

Not caring about being turned over at home by Palace! Who'd have thought it..
