Enjoyed that it had everything but we really should have won, the penalty decision looked soft as was the penalty kick, Welbeck made a huge difference Maupa really needs a partner who can play more than a bit part, Moder really is turning into quite a midfielder but I think he was a fault for their goal loosing the player not chasing back he’s young and will learn from it,

Enjoyed that. Cracking atmosphere, a bit of everything, late equaliser which was celebrated like a winner... shame we didn't win as deserved but what's not to love; plus we didn't deserve to draw at their place and we were the ones to get the late equaliser and got to gloat there too

I'm not flouncing. They've had 3 seasons to find a way to convert massive possession stats into points and they still fail.

Not tonight.

Watching in the stadium, we were quality.

Gross’s shocker prevented a likely win.

Frightened CP packed out their back, bamboozled by our passing game.

Patience, everything Albion is simmering away rather nicely.

Battered them yet again. We really are superior to them in every way. If I was palace, I’d be embarrassed to keep nicking undeserved results like that.

This with big dongly cow bells, I really enjoyed that, great atmosphere, we literally dominated from start to finish.
I did not hear one negative comment after the final whistle, and then I came on here….

We’re probably going to finish with our highest point tally in the top flight ever, and people are friggin whinging….

Crack on….



Crack on whinge bags,


I’m happy though.

Well said!!

Credit to the ref today too. Hardly noticed him all game, even though he had two VAR decisions to review himself, he got them both right and otherwise the game ticked along nicely.

Good quality officiating in the game tonight I think.

Palace, Wolves, Southampton, West Ham, Leeds, Newcastle, Norwich, Arsenal. All games we dominated but failed to win. Don't you see a problem?

So if we had won all those, which you clearly think we should, we would be second in the table...!

Is that really what you expect and are moaning about, the fact we are NOT second in the Premier League?

Yes. Was disappointed to see Gross in there. No change of that opinion after 90 minutes. Now, if you seriously think that is the opinion of a 'negative ****', if you sir (or madam or wherever else you identify) can't see who is being the .....ermmmm ........well, you are the one who appears to like bandying around derogative words. I'll refrain.

Not sure you were one of them but maybe you should look at the comments on here when the team was announced. So little faith in our manager.

There are a lot of ***** who allegedly support this club, if that offends you, so be it. I don’t care

Oh dear, we really should be beating those type of teams.
It’s ‘fans’ like you that got Mike Bailey the sack, and let’s be fair, it all went well after that didn’t it?

The coach and team are unable to beat teams that set up defensively. I wouldn't expect us to beat all of them but 4 out of 8 would be reasonable, wouldn't it? At least 1 out of 8 would be an improvement. I mean, if we can only beat teams who attack us then give up the possession football and just kick the ball away.

I think your missing quite a lot. At the end of the day it’s about progress. We can’t buy success, we have to build slowly. If you can’t see that this season is progress not sure anyone can help you. There is going to be times we do not break teams down but it’s a work in progress and will be the same next year. Solid top 10/12 is solid a good season.

What ****ing nonsense. I never felt Bailey should be sacked. He produced results. Your comment makes no sense at all.
