Doucoure is as good as Caicedo?! Sorry mate, but no he is not.

You’re right, I think we had Chelsea’s pants down on that fee. My screen shot was more about them thinking he’s a better player, with the added delusional garnish of stating Doucore is as good as Caicedo.
Makes you wonder how the duck they’ve never got more than 49 points with all of these world-class 100m+ players in their squad.
Gold medal standard straw clutching. Understandable, given their current predicament. I’d be looking for silver linings too.
Me too. Whether it's their always ultras, or those among us who lose their minds if the score (remember Murray playing for them?), these are not an enjoyable club to play.
It is the overwrought carry-on from some of our support that I find the least tolerable. The howls of anguish.
But what do I know, just a JCL.
That was my first sight of Palace.

If it wasn’t for Parish, they’d be looking down on clubs like Brighton.
Strong chance of losing Whamageddon before Palace win their second game of the season at this rate

I was slightly earlier, the 1-0 win in August 1974, when Peter O'Sullivan scored the winner. The game was played on longer grass than normal, as we hadn't cut the Goldstone pitch, which slowed the ball down.

Ian Mellor was the goal scorer that day.

The same Doucoure who had to be taken off at half time after committing two second yellow worthy challenges , in the first half against Moises.
He was embarrassingly outplayed that day.
Maybe, just maybe, Adam Wharton is the ring fenced funding source for their new fantasy stand….

The maths work perfectly with this multiple Ballon d’Or winner.
£200m fee less the 12.5% sell-on cut to Blackburn = £175m.

THAT just has to be one of the most embarrassing things I’ve seen, it could only be Palace ……

I don't understand where their expectations come from, or their belief that they should be looking down on 'the likes' of us, Brentford etc.
Their ground is ancient without investment in 25 years. How the Arthur Wait hasn't been condemed yet is a mystery. They still have portacabins on site. It's a shithole. Nothing wrong with that if you hadn't earnt over £1bn in the last decade.
They've got no history, unless you count 2010? Imagine a "Stand or Fall" film about Palace would be titled "More of the same".
They've been in the EPL for 10 years, in that time they have continued to give the vast majority of income to (average) players, agents and board members. They pay wages which don't match where they are and this is seen as 'ambition', it's not it's short sighted folly.
Virtually nothing invested back into the club; and this is the result. If you don't build you don't grow.

I saw some comments on Facebook, a Portsmouth fan saying that a load of them went to Villa and got tickets for the away end after their match at Blackburn was called off late morning.
