[Palace] Murray - Palace are hurting

[Cowfold Seagull]

Perhaps we can all celebrate for him?

I think you can count oin that!

 

[Triggaaar]

is this his first time as a premier league regular? If so this might just be his time to shine

He was injured against us when they were promoted, so just got the tail end of their first season. Next season he was at Reading for the first half, then got a decent run at Palace for the second half I think, so no, not his first time (as a regular).

Screw hindsight. Plenty of us saying it was a bizarre/daft move at the time.

But yes, doesn't really matter now.

Sure, but we couldn't have known just how close we'd come to reaching the PL so soon after getting to the Amex. Murray would've gotten us over the line probably that 2nd season.

CMS seemed like a good replacement though, everyone was excited by his arrival.

Correct, but the squad we had 2/3 years ago would have required a much greater overhaul than last season’s squad. We learned from the Murray experience and kept Stephens.

 

[Carrot Cruncher]

You wouldn't get him celebrating though.

If he puts the ball in the Palace net, he could burst into tears for all I care, quite frankly...

 

[maltaseagull]

And if he didn't, that would trigger all SORTS of reactions on here

If it did they would be wrong.
He is a professional footballer and showed real class against us when he scored and I would expect the same WHEN he scores against them.

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Imagine if he went absolutely full on Adebayor after scoring against them. I don't think my Albion supporting life would get any better.

How about if it was the last minute at their place in April, the goal consigning them to defeat, the defeat condemning them to relegation. And then he did the full Adebayor.

The sort of stuff that dreams are made of.....

 

[Eeyore]

He who laughs last...

.... had best wait till the end of the season.

You forget mention moving us to 6th on goal difference

And then he throws his Brighton shirt into the Palace crowd and it DOESN'T get thrown back.

 

[Whitley Bayster]

He won't have time to celebrate. He'll be on the bottom of a huge pile on with Maty Ryan as the cherry on top!

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

Agreed, as long as he puts the ball in the net I don't think any of us will care what he does in the way of a celebration . . . or not.

Must admit I do enjoy Maty's antics, the way he sprints from one end of the pitch to the other to throw himself across the top of the other celebrating players.

Im sure there was a lot of talk at tbe time that he wanted to go because his mrs couldnt settle in the south ?

Mmmnah.

His goals have already fired us into the Premier League. Even if he doesn't score another goal this season, his return to BHA has been a TRIUMPH.

 

[JamesAndTheGiantHead]

He who laughs last...

I fully expect a thread bounce in 2023, after a 40-year old Glen Murray scores the winner for his new-old club, Crystal Palace, against his old-old club, Brighton.

 

[Super Steve Earle]

Well we sort of learned with Stephens, but we could have learned earlier with Barnes!

 

[Uh_huh_him]

Some very short memories on here; this was us 6 years ago.

Fickle fans eh .
