Knew was about time for another self-important open letter to the club from those divs. "Do want we want or we won't wave our flags, boo hoo". I bet the Palace boardroom is quaking with fear at the prospect of that!
Think they were using “across the board” as an expression to mean “everyone involved in the decision making process”. Not the actual Board of Directors.
I had the match on whilst doing chores and the thought struck me: what is the Palace way of playing? Is there a “RoyBall” style of play? It just seemed like a bunch of, admittedly decent, players running around.
