After the horrors of 9/27, pretend you have a choice...

1. Beat Palace at Selhurst later this season.

- or -

2. Finish above Palace in the league this season.

Only 1 can happen - which would you choose?

Completely outplay them at Selhurst, getting a draw, having had 3 perfectly good goals disallowed by a biased ref, so that even their most ardent fans would concede the moral high ground, and finish 22 places above them.

Depends where finishing above them means. If it meant us finishing in the top 6 and them not then balls to the Selhurst result. If it meant us finshing say 14th and them 15th, then no I'd rather take a Selhurst win

Both!!...But to answer the question properly then it has to be beat them at Selhurst.

They have been finishing above us for the last God knows how many years so one more won't make much difference so going there in February and destroying them would be sweet.

Albion & England forever.

The league position is the ultimate test on a team's quality. I'd rather take that over a derby win. However as others say, if it's a case of us both finishing 14th and 15th for example then another win at Selhurst would be lovely

Maybe this. I'd certainly take finishing a few places above them even if we're not in the play-off (and I suspect we won't be).

Interesting that Gus, obviously a bit startled by the fan reaction to Tuesday, has said today that he'd take two losses to Palace if it meant finishing above them.

Like pasty, that wouldn't be enough for me. If it was goal difference between 13th and 14th, I'd rather have the win at Selhurst thanks. If it meant the difference between 7th and 6th, or 3rd and 2nd (unlikely), fair enough.
