It is amazing that they are 6 points clear of the relegation places with their horrid "play for a point" style every game. Boy I hope we really put one across them on the 15th (another West Ham style performance from us would be most welcome).
Blimey that wasn't an easy watch. Well done to our fans for making the long journey.
I echo what most have said on here tonight. We do look very lightweight in the squad now injuries have hit us and several players did little to enhance their chances of getting a start in a Prem game. However...

Oh dear oh dear :cry:
Went to bed with Root and Stokes making a fight of it and woke up to find we have lost by 1 run and thrown the series win away.
Sorry but the Bazball decision to enforce the follow on was wrong (even if we had won). Anderson and Broad need an innings rest between bowling...
Not sure I love Bazball being played at all costs. This Test I would have liked to see us NOT enforce the follow on but bat up a lead of 500 and put them in on a fifth day pitch without a chance of winning. It would have ensured a series away win . We will probably chase down the runs tomorrow...
Go to go with our strongest side available in all positions. This may be our last reasonable chance of winning something if the expected "Summer Sale" goes ahead
No need to change house - you can still live in beautiful Sussex and train and play in London if you wish.
I'm always surprised at how poor Palace finish in the league with a wealth of young and older London based players around them. :tears2:
