Today was the first point we had picked up this season in a different kit to our home one (the previous 5 away points all came wearing Amber and Black). We really should wear it at Palace.
Because Palace have had big away wins in games that people haven't given them any chance in, like they get wins when they need them. Southampton were today as well, but Burnley took advantage more.
Palace will probably got to Man Cith and get something...I can't see them falling into the bottom three. Its been us or Swansea for weeks and there is no saying how it will end...I know that's stating the bleeding obvious, but I wanted to get it off my tits..
Cringey, proper cringey. He's aware that he's supporting Southampton, right? Make them sound like Barcelona.
Just home....... my voice has actually gone, so I cant type much.... it could have been an amazing day out, but it was still a really great day out... (nice ground BTW)... to a man we were excellent, I think Marco's attitude was if we nick it, fantastic, but lets not lose it.... Up pops our very own superman, the one and only Jak.... The support was genuinely immense I would have loved a winner as it would made amazing filming... Oh and Filey you'd have felt at home in the gents.... LOL..... NO!!! lets not ...but the urinals were made there!!
Two points dropped today. Marco has to take a lot of the blame for it. They were there for the taking and we just didn't have enough up top to make it tell. Evandro was poor to nonexistent. Should have been hooked at half time. Firmly believe if we'd started Abel and Niasse we'd have run out comfortable winners. Robbos decision making and execution is piss poor, so many times he made a bad choice or decision. Jak, hero that he is, his kicking was poor and a pretty bad flap at a cross but seeing it again he was fouled. We didn't come out second half and they dominated. Romeu was excellent, helped by Jak kicking to him every time!! Had to be Abel but henriksen comes on!! Hudd for growshitski no problem and tom nearly set up a goal with his first touch. Niasse should have done better with the knockdown, poor control and a ****e shot. This may cost us.
We're not in a position to say that a draw away against a top ten team is a bad result. Not when you got 5 or 6 points from the last 15 matches. Of course Southampton had a poor game, specially in the 1st half, and if we've pushed some more we might have scored. But we've been loosing all our away games. Zero points. So 1 point is good against a good top 10 team that has nothing to fight for but their pride. About Evandro, thought e did better than previous match, but he wasn't again at his best. About Hernandez... Agree he could have been involved, but today the focus was in not loosing. Against Sunderland we'll probably start with Niasse and Hernandez
I don't care if they are top 10, they haven't been that good at home this season from what I've heard and it showed. If they keep playing like that they'll finish lower anyway. Also, a better penalty and we would have lost.
Christ we can't even praise our keeper for saving a pen, it has to be seen as a bad pen? It was low in the corner, there was nothing wrong with the pen. We're now 3 clear of Swansea and in two weeks we'll likely be 6 clear with better goal difference. That point was huge.
