The FA Cup Final : Crystal Palace v The Bore Merchants

[Frenk]

Just think Palace could win their first major trophy, yet some think we won’t win anything ever again.

 

[matty1878]

been better than our match thread this lads!

 

[ChesterBlue]

That penalty save was really good to be fair - it wasn’t actually a dreadful pen

 

[Rita_Poon]

Ian Wright asking why they're inventing rules to try to fool us. (the handling out of the area by the keeper)

 

[johnjoeefc]

That clearing header from guehi after the Henderson save was brilliant. He made sure no-one was scoring that rebound

 

[Alan Whittle]

Jesus lads.

 

[matty1878]

Palace look solid tbf. Another team joining the list of 'teams that have won a cup this century' which doesn't have our name on it.

A list that also includes, Boro, Pompey, Birmingham, Wigan, Leicester, Swansea off the top of my head.

( kenwright and Moshiri.... just.... ugh.)

and we’re are all those clubs you’ve said..

exactly


we’re NOW moving on from it

look forwards not back

 

[No Alla Violenza]

Fun half but it feels like the whole refereeing community in this country has had a collective meltdown/loss of confidence over the last couple of years and can't apply the rules with any confidence.

You see it in bizarre VAR decisions like today, and also in random yellow cards for nothing and stonewall yellows not being given. Feels like they've completely lost the bottle.

That Henderson decision in particular was absolutely baffling

 

[Runub]

Jesus lads.

Goal advantage and the referee in your pocket. What could possibly go wrong

 

[Sharpies volley]

If that had been us, you can bet your bottom dollar, Pickford would have walked.

 

[Joey66]

Goal advantage and the referee in your pocket. What could possibly go wrong

The pen was dubious already diving when he kicked the defenders foot no pen imo!

 

[Gooner66789]

Has to be the summer Grealish leaves City, Surely?

Get's no game time, he's more interested in popping up in peoples DM's on Instagram nowadays.

Or he's out getting hammered

 

[Littlesue]

Jesus lads.

Are you there?

 

[Cameron Manning]

A player with 75 on his back, dear lord. When we beat City in 1933 it was 1 to 11.

Was it? I thought it was 1to 22– maybe I’m wrong.

Does Haaland ever turn up in big games
