let's have it then...
Yes sorry went to sleep on the job.

Palace (and Bournemouth) are the only current Premier League clubs never to have amassed 50 or more points in a Premier League season. All the lower league Clubs mentioned previously have done this (QPR and Norwich done it in a 42 game season all the rest in a 38 game season). Palace have tried and failed in both 42 & 38 game Premier League seasons.

Bit harsh though - they got 69 and 57 in the last two First Division seasons before football begun in 1992!

Despite our obvious better league and squad position, we all know how this ends. We’ll have a vastly superior possession and chances position, we’ll dominate the game, and draw 1-1.

I was in Preston today. I can fully understand the likes of Bolton / Wigan / Blackpool local clubs' calendars - and I guess I have to accept the so-called 'big' clubs calendars will sell. But WTF? Is there a huge demand for these in Preston??

Does the Palace one have a date for the opening of the new stand?

The Football League/First Division/Premier League has been running continuously (apart from in two world wars) since 1888. Stats which ignore the first 104 years don't really carry much weight.

They do when they're taking the piss out of Palace. Honestly :rolleyes:

Ground - its our ground, we own it, and yes it needs a bit of modernisation, but I'd rather that than some soulless bowl on the edge of town
Squad - 2-3 players that would make your best 15 is subjective, as I would say maybe only 2-3 would make our best 15
Owner - Parish is the owner as far as I am concerned. We have 3 others, but SP has the final say, which is why textor wants out. I'd say he is at least as good an owner as Bloom
Strategy - consistently in the top 10, remind me where you finished last season? I dont think you sell when you are ready, you sell when the player has a striop and demands to leave
As I said, different answers depending on who you support, so definitely subjective
How's that working out for you with all those incredible players then?
