Match Day Thread Crystal Palace vs Southampton, Saturday 16th September, 12:30

Yeah he did ok, but nowhere near as well as some people are saying that he did though.

 

Fair enough, don't really remember much from him at wba. Did a good job at Fulham though imo got them punching above their weight and to a European final.

 

Does after the 73rd minute count aswell? lol

 

sorry, you were very precise, I'm being very precise!

 

Not confident about this one, although I'm rarely confident these days.

 

Not confident but anyone else absolutely buzzing for this one?

No? Just me then

 

In the words of the great Joe Cocker and Jennifer Warnes:

"Who knows what tomorrow brings
In a world few hearts survive
All I know is the way I feel
When it's real, I keep it alive
The road is long
There are mountains in our way
But we climb a step every day
Love lift us up where we belong
Where The Eagles cry
On a mountain high"

I think it was written for us

 

Getting back to the game. How to score some goals?

Forster
Cedric, Yosh, VVD, Bertrand
Lemina, Romeu
Boufal, Gabbi, Tadic
Austin

 

You lot won't believe me but I no longer care about tomorrow's result. I am a bit like a baby whose umbilical chord has been cut and I am free.

No goals, boring bloody backwards and sideways passing, no direction, no clear message of ambition from the club, flogged off cheap to the Chinese, players lacking in courage, guts or desire, players who will **** off for a few quid more, no connection between club, players and fans, an academy that has lost its way, no more heroes, risk averse football, **** tannoy system, a club that has lost its direction, a manager no better than the last useless incumbent, a new centre half I am not the least bit excited by and could not care less if I get to see him play or not, the stench from the club is boring bloody mediocrity and I have enough of that in my life already.

I then turn on the radio and hear that twat Jermaine ****ing Jenas speaking utter crap and then have MotD to look forward to with that useless prick Murphy spouting absolute crap. Professional football is ****. I was going to watch the match on the TV down the pub but have decided instead to stay home and tidy the garden.

I get more enjoyment watching the kids kick a ball around the Hoglands.

This message has deliberately NOT been posted in blue.

 

Translation -

 

I'm hoping Benteke is on corners tomorrow

 

Prefer him to be on the bench all game

 

I believe you and agree with you .

 

Yeah that works too

 

I think risk could be the buzz word for premiership reporters this season. All the bottom 14 clubs can defend, but none of them is prepared to risk anything to attack. Including us.

 

As the BBC says

HALF-TIME
Bournemouth 0-0 Brighton

Zzzz.

 

to PL football.

 

Now that I agree with 100% mate

Honestly wouldn't give a **** if we were relegated, would enjoy it in fact.

While we're here though, I'm just going to support my club the only way I know how

 

It's been dreadful, I thought we were poor until I watched this guff

 

The pride of the South
