Its good that we have weekly threads from specific people to look forward to. I wonder what next weeks title will be.

Are you really going to post the same miserable negative crap every week, I'd read the messages at the end of platforms if I were you as you are not going to make Christmas at this rate let alone May

Doesn't that just show how sad and paranoid you are.?Five years is a ****ing long time. Do you not honestly think if I was anything but an Albion fan I would still be on these boards. I'm not a big poster. Too busy unfortunately but I am a season ticket holder and genuine supporter. If you think you're a better fan than me fair play but most of you wankers probably don't even go.

I bet you are busy what with having three clubs to support. That's every Saturday and Sunday sorted until May though eh?

Sorry, you're confusing me?
Remind me again, is it Arsenal who you support or is it Palace?

God; true, living in the north east, I don't go very often, and I do like 'wangling' hmmmmm this is getting too rich for my blood.
I fold.
Well played sir, I mean maaaam errmmm I mean fluidy thingy... of unknown origin.
To be fair to the OP we have yet to score a goal. Scoring goals is something of a prerequisite for teams wishing to remain in the division. The very best a team can do without scoring goals is 38 points, which would lead to a season long battle against relegation. In this context, the original post is fair.
Moving on, we've played three games and our early fixtures have not been massively kind to us. Our record signing has played 10 minutes. The remaining new signings are still building an understanding. There is more business still to be done. Possibly. Years and years ago Barry Lloyd suggested you needed 22 points from the first 15 to be in a competitive position for playoffs at the end of the year. Regardless of how you view old Barry that's actually a reasonable assessment. It also shows that you need around a third of the season done before you can begin to make informed estimates or where everything is heading. In this context this post could perhaps be just a tad premature.

Only two. Thankfully I get to see them play each other this season in what will be an emotional day for me. I will be praying Albion win but if we lose to anyone this season Arsenal is the only day it will hurt less than normal.

Palace fans praying for an Albion win whilst wanting Arsenal to beat Palace, just proves how crap Palace's support truly is.

Was it emotional for you when we played them in 2001?

Can't say I remember that. The cup meetings in recent years were very special. The 2015 tie was pulsating if not heartbreaking that we couldn't force the replay.
