    They refused to sing the Valery song.

    (They we’re moaning about him passing back at 44 mins. He pointed to his imaginary watch).

    You just know he's going to get a goal out of nowhere from a flukey wind assisted cross.

    I'm quickly developing a wee bit of a man crush on PEH. That could just tip me over the edge.

    Ryan looking for a forward pass, 20 yards from goal, nothing on for him so he opts to go back to Maya Yoshida on the other side of the halfway line - the fans then boo.

    He points to the clock (there were just 60 seconds until HT) and tells the fans to hush it, effectively.

    Some dreadful passing from both teams tonight, seen better down the park
    If we could string a few more passes together this lot are for the taking, they look knackered

    Swirling wind, pissing down with rain, and the pitch is waterlogged. Difficult to be accurate in those conditions.

    ****ing idiots. Have they ever heard of a thing called game management? What if he risked a forward pass, lost it and Palace went up the other end and scored?

    Then they’d boo, and @Onionman would get in a fight.

    Would like to see us move the ball a little bit quicker. So often we have had it in good positions but allowed a Palace player to walk back and block the pass or force an error.

    We need number two. This is going to be so tense.

    The end of that half is how I would like to see us close games out after 90 minutes. Controlled possession

    Hard to zip it around in these conditions, but we definitely dialed down the tempo in the final 15 minutes of the half.

    Apparently the main drains are blocked outside the ground, which explains the state of the pitch.
