Over the years we've had quite a few players sent off against Palace: Dunk this season (his second time against Palace), Duffy, Brooker in the 5-0 game. When was the last time Palace had a player sent off against us? I couldn't remember off the top of my head - surely they're due one?

Tenuously related but we’ve gone a long time without a penalty or VAR controversy in one of our games...

They always seem to get the luck. Dunk got sent once there and it ruined the game. Duffy’s was a red but the way that prick PVA collapsed to the floor then jumped up celebrating to the ***** in the away section was very wrong. Wasn’t celebrating a minute later though 
We're FINISHED!

I remember Mike (how the hell did I ever get to wear a blue and white shirt) Trusson got sent off in the 1989 five penalty saga. Another match that left me shaking my head on the way home from Selhurst.

My memory is a little hazy on that Dunk one at Selhurst but they were both probably reds, weren't they? We'd want them given if against us...
Dunk received a ball from (I think Greer) from the right. It was hit a bit hard and he mis controlled it allowing Bolasie in but Dunk tripped him just outside the box.
I can think of at least five red cards against them (Dunk twice, Duffy, Brooker, Hart). I can’t remember any of their players being sent off although I still don’t know how Zaha got away with trying to rupture Solly March’s achilles and then stamping on Montoya in 3-1 match in 2018. We are due so many refereeing decisions against them but it never seems to happen.

Also, have we ever had any luck at all in one of these games?
Something from the refs that goes our way
Have we ever had a marginal penalty decision or any penalty decision?
Have we ever scraped a point we didn't deserve?
Palace every time, get luck in these fixtures .... all the way back to Kelvin Morton

We'll have to wait till next season, at the earliest, for a palace red card.
There's no way Dad's Army will be able to get close enough to foul our young, fast, academy talent, on Monday.

I don't remember OGH's? When was that and what was it for?
At Withdean in around 2006 for 2 soft yellows cards.

Also Trusson in the 5 penalty match at Selhurst.
And you're bang right on Zaha. the assault on March was alone worth a straight red (and would have been post-VAR).
To balance the LITANY of decisions in Palace's favour, it is only fair to point out, that our penalty (on Izquierdo) in the 3-1 home win, was very soft.

And Knocky was very lucky to stay on the field in our 2-1 win at Selhurst

Knockaert was very lucky not to have been sent off in the first minute a couple of seasons ago
Maybe, yes.
Although their player himself, went in equally recklessly, which I think saved Knockaert.
