[Albion] Is there a single metric that points to the Albion not losing on Wednesday?

[jcdenton08]

Comfortable 3-0 win.

Then WW3 starts a few hours later. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-64957792

NAILED ON.

Oooooh f***. That’s not good.

And it would be just our luck that, when we're winning 4-0 with the game entering added time, that cataclysmic asteroid strike happens, causing the game to be abandoned due to the complete destruction of planet earth.

We’d win the replay.

What?

I thought it was just me.... Ive been bricking it for days now, every time I hear another stat showing how "Palace havent won in 2023", or "Palace have scored just 12 goals or something, since the World Cup", or "Palace havent had a shot on target in three entire games" - even Palace fans I know think they'll be whupped 4-1 ! And yet .... it just doesn't happen like that does it ? This has got the Albion having 98% possession, missing 22 chances, lofting shots over the bar from the 6 yard line, hitting inside of both posts, keeper saving the rest with his nose, his earlobe and his jockstrap, and them winning 1-0.
Please , please prove me wrong !!

I think Palace are going to think that this is how it is going to happen for them. Therefore I predict that they will defend with 11 men behind the ball for 94 minutes, clearing 5 shots off the line, then all of their players will chase up the pitch searching for their inevitable winner, they have a shot which is goal bound but hits Wilf on the arse, deflects onto the post and then Dunk tries to clear, it hits Wilf again, but comes out, Moises backheels it to Mac, who flicks it to Solly who then runs up the pitch, crosses to Mitoma who runs clear and pops the ball into an empty net.
Cue Limbs.

VAR then intervenes as footage shows Dunk clipped Wilf in the box. Goal disallowed and penalty to Palace….Wilf steps up…

i see the game abandoned as unseasonably cold weather results in santa crashing into WSL with Brighton leading 4-0

Smashes the penalty against the bar, it bounces out towards the half way líne, and Ferguson chips the keeper from 60 yards out.

Reports they will have no senior goalkeeper tonight.



Swinging things in their favour. And just to push us over the edge, the club have decided it will be a good idea for a pre-game light show. Considering not bothering, tbh.

Seems a power cut was/is more likely than a meteorite!

After the disappointment of Fulham, we saw the reaction against West Ham.

After today's wastefulness, I'm sure that we'll be back to winning ways on Wednesday.

Never in doubt.
