City v Palace Thread.

You're thinking of Barthez now.

 

Same team as Tuesday (barring last minute injuries). Win of any sort would do me fine.

 

Radio Blunderside have just said that the Ginja Ninja is NOT allowed to play for Palace against us. Drat.

 

Indeed. Wish they would make there minds up one way or another on the radio. Anyway i am still of the mind that this latest news actually strengthens Crystal Palace.

 

No question on that. Brady on the bench IF Fit.

 

Indeed mate,

 

Any team news yet?

 

I'm pretty relieved Macca isn't playing. On his day he can be a strong defender and he would have a lot to prove against us.
In the pre-season game against Liverpool he played at CB and it was debatable whether he or Chester was MOM.

 

I must have been watching a different game to you. I thought he was awful against Liverpool. His positional sense was non-existent, his passing was pretty woeful, and he lost his man on many occasions. I know he made that good tackle on N'Gog but if Macca hadn't been ball watching, getting on the wrong side of N'Gog and completely losing him he wouldn't have had to make that tackle at all.

 

What he lacks in pace, positional sense and basic ability he tries to make up for with sheer guts and aggression. This usually fails dismally but as I said on his day he can be effective and to be fair most people thought he had a good game against Liverpool.

 

I fully appreciate that he gives 100% every game he plays in. I just think that unfortunately his lack of ability constantly shines through.

I know most people disagree with me re the Liverpool game. You're all wrong

 

Dont expect much from City if any. Zaha suspended for Palace. Doubts on Clyne and Gardner for Palace.

The big news so far is the pre-match entertainment for early arrivals. Live on Pitch performance of one Andy Abraham who was runner-up on X-Factor 2005. Deep joys. Think a 2.50pm arrival is the order of the day for me.

 

I'd leave it til 3.05pm, just to be on the safe side.

 

I should'nt comment as i wasn't there,but mates who were told me he was motm.

 

I'll get there as early as I can to make sure I get chance to throw a bottle of piss at him

 

Kempton, please feel free to tell them that they are wrong as well

 

That thought had crossed my mind but i will pack a pair of ear plugs just in case. Apparantly Andy Abraham's mate is a Palace fan.

 

Come clean then. I bet you got a heads up on this info didn't you ?

 

Ah but as footy fans wer'e never wrong Andy. You should know that !
