Match Day Thread Palace v Hull City

[PGFWhite]

The Sunderland result last week changed everything. Up until then you were in the driving seat, but you imploded last week, we picked up 6 points and it was clear your players didn't believe they could do it today. Your travelling fans deserved a better performance than that.

I posted earlier that a few people have to look at themselves today , and that includes silva , he was found wanting , Maguire at right back didn't work at Stoke , why turn to A player you haven't used since January , 1 forward for most the game in a must win , it almost felt like nobody believed we even had a chance today and just went through the motions , I can take losing and relegation , but the way it happened has left a very sour taste in my mouth , fantastic noise in the away end and most didn't deserve any of it

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Looks like a sour grapes fan to me that cant see the wood for the trees......Swansea stayed up because they wanted too more than Hull did and when hull lost at home to Sunderland the writing was on the wall and Swansea took the opportunity to get ahead and our performance in the last 4 games showed we were the team that wanted to stay in the premiership and we were never going to let that slip....

Having better players will have helped.

A game we HAD to win

0 shots on target

Lost 4-0 is utterly shameful and they should feel absolutely appalled with themselves to be honest

Can anyome truly comprehend just how badly we have capitulated? I thought we'd go down

But like this?

Id argue that ALL games in PL are must wins.

 

[Stevielidds1983]

face it.. MS didnt have a plan B

He wouldn't have needed one if given a full season! And it's also hard to have a plan B when we didn't have one! West Ham had something line 7 first team players out today and still fielded a very strong team! If we have 1 or 2 we are stuffed so no scope for a plan B

Make the argument then.

Ye not only did Silva split up ranoccia and Harry but he moved ranoccia to lcb from rcb to bring in a rusty and out of form player. That will have pissed Harry off too, moving him.
N'diaye was out of form but kept his place. Toms done nowt wrong but didn't get a kick. Strange decision.

more wins = more points

I turned the TV off and went back to sleep just after half time as it was apparent we weren't going to recover. I just woke up again to discover we conceded another two goals.

I think the first goal today pretty well sums up our season - laughable errors by the owners, the managers, the players and the incompetent officials (the ****s) that would be comical if not so ****ing sad. Still after following City for 50 years, I'm no stranger to disappointment. So as the local farmers say after a bad crop, "There's always next year." I wonder what it will bring.

 

[PattyNchips2]

Thud is our best passer of a ball by a country mile.
not starting him, was inviting defeat.

 

[HCAFC (Airlie Tiger)]

Absolute ****e.

Sorry, but comments like that are wide of the mark.

If you want to convince yourself that then go ahead, those players don't care about this club like you or I do, its just a job to them, they'll be working for someone else next season.

 

[tigercity]

You have a better striker. That's it.

plus a top class midfielder in Sigurdsson who provides dead ball magic, we had Snodgrass who isn't quite in that class but nevertheless won a lot of points for us before he was sold

he wanted out.

 

[tigercity]

he wanted out.

yes but that's not the point - Evandro wasn't an adequate replacement

when all is said and done, Burnley have 40 points with a limited squad

 

[dennisboothstash]

he wanted out.

So?

 

[Amin Arrears]

Just seen the highlights.

Rannochia, as I've always thought, is absolute ****ing dog ****.

Niasse, as I've always thought, is absolute ****ing dog ****.

Couldn't have gone down without a catastrophically piss poor refereeing performance, Martin Atkinson duly delivered.

Forget the shenanigans in the summer, the timid defeats under Phelan, zonal marking or anything else. Referees have relegated us this season, pure and simple as that. I challenge anyone to think of 10 games where we haven't suffered at the hands of atrocious officiating. Even the wins, nearly all were in spite of referees and their disastrous calls. I struggle to think of a time they have even been half as bad, nearly every single game has been ruined by them.

Football is a broken sport, I don't give a **** about it any more until it's fixed. A complete and utter waste of a Saturday afternoon watching referees play chess like Patty (or a pidgeon).
