    Everyone looks like they are treading in treacle, I guess poor conditions and lots of fixtures leads to this.

    Fortunately Palace's build up is even slower than ours!

    Radio can be deceiving but sounds like we're playing really well.

    I worry about Pied, looks like he's injured everytime the ball comes near him. He's just ramping the stress levels up, right?

    Palace has also arguably played the worst first half of any side to come to SMS this season. They look exhausted...even when they win the ball back in their own half, no one is running forward with any real conviction. Hard to play on the counter at a walking pace, particularly when the ball won't run on the sodden pitch.

    The pitch looks soupy too. Hopefully they will barely be able to walk soon.

    Well, we’re playing better than them. That’s probably more accurate.

    It would be worth him playing just for that

    Doubt the Northam could manage it. It’s not Seven Nation Army.

    Chapel definitely couldn’t!

    No chance the Northam will manage that.


    They'd struggle with Val-er-y, Val-er-y

    Everton's first half wasn't atrocious. They more than made up for it in the second half, though.
