Not often I will be a big fan (the last time wasn’t that long ago though - Cardiff last season)

We are all rooting for Palace for just one game, no?

Live on BBC too

Maybe some of you can’t stomach it and hope for a draw? Let’s be honest Palace aren’t going down so results against teams around us has to be a bonus.

First live PL game on the BBC after 32 years - I want my licence fee back!

Knowing we need Palace to win to help our relegation fight, they’ll probably not bother and allow an easy home win, just to piss us off a bit more!!

I will be quietly hoping for a game with Bournemouth dominating start to finish with no end product- then shipping a mad own goal at the end.

No credit to Palace, no points for Bournemouth.

To be honest, I'm not sure how many of the games that don't involve us I'm going to pay any attention to beyond the final results.

I'll be cheering on the builders as they finish their new stand.



Work began late 2018.
The money was ring fenced.

They must be nearly finished now, no games for the last 3 months they must have really cracked on with it.

I can’t wait to see the photos, I’m surprised no Palace fans have posted any on here to make us jealous.

How long did it take to build The AMEX, from the ground first being broken?


palace were building 1 (one) stand.
Work "due to start late 2018".
It's now 18 months later.

So assuming they've just about finished now, working on the same schedule I guess it took 6 years to complete Falmer.

With the BBC no doubt playing this fixture up as the biggest game ever in their television history, there will be so many BBC employees at the game that it will probably be a sell out at Dean Court or whatever it;s called these days.

Mr Tumble to get a penalty in the last minute which VAR review and still award although contact looks minimal to say the least, and a 1-0 win to Palace with their only shot of the game from the spot kick.

Not forgetting loads of nasty tackles and cards.
