• Get people don’t watch other teams as much as FFC, but Palace are so much better away than their league position, I’d almost rather have played ars at home than palace right now. B.mouth lost at home to wolves, palace lost home to Everton last week who then drew with a poor Utd at home, it’s nature of the beast for a lot of teams now, home fixtures are becoming harder to win and you only need to be a little off and bar the bottom 2/3 you’ll lose most games in the prem.

  • I think it's inconsistency that bugs most of us. We know Silva's first team and changes only happen through injury. Is the quality not there in the squad or is Silva too conservative. As it is the first team are over worked and the potential replacements under cooked. So we're mid table which means we're sometimes very good, usually at least competitive but have serious off days like yesterday.

    • I’d say that’s nature of the beast, Iwobi is a good example, for a period looked like a top prem player, now he’s gone off the boil, kluivert similar at B.mouth. They aren’t robots and if they were an 8 or 9/10 every week, scoring 15+ a season they wouldn’t be at FFC. They aren’t trying any less hard, we just aren’t a top 6 team when we win, not a bottom 5 team when we lose, we are a really good mid table team, inconsistent like everyone bar Liverpool.

      • Absolutely. Simple fact is that currently it's better than it's ever been for FFC. For each of us as individuals it's a question of whether we're satisfied or crave or even demand better. Personally I don't but I still get disappointed over games like yesterday. (NT) -- The Man With No Name, Sunday, February 23, 10:35:11am (238.75.189.80.dyn.plus.net/80.189.75.238)
        • Yes just that. The disappointment is visceral until distraction offers relief. We have a collection of talented players who are not quite top drawer and in essence it probably comes down to Beckham’s comment along the lines of it’s not that the best players do lots of unique things, but just that they can do them more often.

        • My gripe is transfers, why sign Ander for 30m, we have proven diop. Lesser extent Berge, we have lukic. Way we move up is by revenue, primarily player sales, I’d like more ambition, we could have signed huijsen, probs worth 60m now, could have got Wharton, now worth 60m, BHA probs have 5 or 6 they could sell for 60m+, palace/b.mouth similar, we have maybe 1. I like seeing young players develop, not constant safe iwobi/anderson/cast types. Minor gripe though, we have a really good team/coach.

    • FWIW although always takes 2 to tango I thought palace were outstanding, as good as we’ve played at home, if that’s the case only a few % off means a net result loss, I’d argue they have a stronger XI than ours. It’s a fine line between sticking to what you know works and trying things, eg back 3 didn’t work for me for us, the best evolve, as we have done, but stick to a core principle eg city were predictable but won 6 out of 7 league titles.

  • Ironically that's probably how we'd find out. The squad players would all get ample playing time which would help them all. (NT) -- The Man With No Name, Sunday, February 23, 10:43:40am (238.75.189.80.dyn.plus.net/80.189.75.238)

• We are unfortunate to lose Wilson who has the guile to break a defebce and the pace of Nelson along with Tete. Clubs seem to all put possession above even shooting. The first half was a typical example we moved the ball around but did nothing in the box let alone shoot. Maybe it is modern football but when things are not working it is so boring. Would bring in King and Diop at Wolves. (NT) -- Going, Sunday, February 23, 11:23:13am (host109-151-82-253.range109-151.btcentralplus.com/109.151.82.253)

• anyone who had a clue about Palace's current away record and defensive record would have had an inkling this could happen very easily. (NT) -- .., Sunday, February 23, 04:04:13pm (host31-53-153-6.range31-53.btcentralplus.com/31.53.153.6)
