[Albion] Premier League 2-4/4/24

[Badger]

Pompey equalise. Sounds like Fratton Park is jumping.

You must have misread the thread title - it says Premier League, not Lower League.

Not really paid much attention to Palace, but I’m guessing that new manager hasn’t got them going yet.

Polishing turds in a second language ist hart Ja

A strong laxative in the half-time tea is his best hope.

The forum BBS has updated web software btw, they ditched the 1997 version, it now looks like NSC 20 years ago. Seems to have more clicks available per guest user now.

“We are absolute horsewank aren’t we. Seen zero improvement under Glasner. Very favourably set of starting fixtures and we have been abysmal.”

Lovely stuff.

If they thought that shit “Glasner all over” was a cute chant, they don’t now. He’s getting slagged off already.

I assume they just added some cladding to their previous forum.

RDZ got us into Europe, there must be method in the everyone 75 yards from our goal routine.

I just hate it when an outplayed team takes the spoils by simply exploiting the (imho unnecessary) open prairies.

We had two excellent if not world class midfielders who got us in to Europe, aided and abetted by some very good players and few injuries. We had a squad that could play RDZ football.

This season we have lost those 2 , had a lot of injuries and had 3 great players last year (Ferguson, Mitoma, Pervis) not performing to anywhere near the same level. We needed to adjust to deal with the low block but also shut down the defence to see out the match but no adjustment were coming.

Don't get me wrong , the RDZ era has been great and a lot of that is down to his character but there are flaws in his tactics...

Only a game or two now and he'll be getting slit throat gestures as he makes his way to the corner.

And a game after that, there'll be a clamour for Roy to return to ensure they don't go down.

Opta have had to introduce additional decimal places for them to record a value.

There’s increasing Roy 2023/24 nostalgia on the angry Glasner thread .

I’d love him to stay, but long before the recent bitching about him from some, I wished for some defensive adjustments.

Not a bad night. Saudis and West Ham both dropping points, and Palace losing. Need to make the most of that by winning tomorrow

 

[Weststander]

How did Lo Celso and Hojbjerg play? They’ve been particularly destroyed in match player ratings.

Palace were awful absolutely awful, we are absolutely pants.

I don’t often get cross about football but fxxk me….large scotch and off to bed.

Seems mad considering our season long injury struggles that wins for us and Chelsea tomorrow and Thursday would leave us three points off last season's sixth place. Now Calvert-Lewin's scored, is it Fergie's turn?

A win tomorrow would definitely make it feel like the season is well and truly alive again.

A loss would probably add to the feeling of it petering out with another defeat likely looming on Saturday.

They were on for a combined 10 minutes or so. Would ignore the BBC ones if you look at them. Popularity contest. Not like the Match Ratings thread here of course.

I always factor in that most votes are from rivals.

Here’s the real mccoy, Son and Sarr rated lower.

A BIG opportunity has been presented to us.

Will we take it or let it slip?

 

[London Irish]

Be amazing if we did take it but doubt many of us would put risk a lot on that bet. Pedro has to start
