Been here with Palace plenty of times before. They'll sack Glasner in December, bring in a boring merry-go-round manager (odds on its Moyes) who will sort out their defence and they'll finish 12-14th.

The endless cycle of mediocrity.

If I'm honest I feel far less passion for our rivalry with Palace these days. I don't know whether it's because we're not the underdog anymore or if I've got more apathetic with age. But they're just a bit drab, and that's hard to get excited about.

With Newcastle, Chelsea and Man City available, there are far more hateable clubs. I still maintain a dislike of Palace purely out of duty, but it gets harder and harder over time.

You need a bit of pantomime sometimes in a rivalry, someone exaggerated you can hate easily. Zaha used to be that.

What we really need is Steve Parish to come out dressed as Widow Twankey, that'll respark the rivalry

Chelsea I understand but Newcastle and City? I don't like their petrodollars either but they're not rivals of ours are they? Palace are our rivals and I pray for the day they're finally relegated and stop stinking out this league.

Hang on, that can't be right. Haven't they got a generational talent who single-handedly won (lost) the euro final in there? You know, the one who's going to be the backbone of England for the next 10 years.
bet those prospects can’t wait for Southgate to get the Palace Managers gig. He could then pick a team made up of 11 palace players

When NUFC took the 2017 Championship title, fairly, they made many enemies here.

At least their inhouse football finance expert can see the positives.
