Match Thread Crystal Palace v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[everton fan number one]

So you've got to matrix out of the way of the ball now if it happens to be launched at your arm. Utterly ridiculous.

There is a reason that Mccoist and Tyldsley hadn’t been picked up by the major sports companies before amazon came into the market.

absolute amateurs that should be commentating the season review dvd for Prescot cables

Wrong. McCoist was doing tv punditry before a lot of todays lot were even thought about.

We need pickford as a defender cos his arms are too short to give away handballs....AMIRITE LADS?

 

[SpongeBob brown shoes]

Mccoist going on like it didn't hit his arm at all, the new rule is crap but it's the rule and the ball hit his arm

 

[blueconverse]

Common sense Mccoist

 

[Methuselah]

With Zaha on the pitch, there are a few more penalties to come.

 

[John from Bootle]

a penalty was given AFTER THE FINAL WHISTLE today for United

Seriously?

 

[Deco]

Harsh pen but I’ll take it. Richy getting a goal is always nice.

Keep going lads get more goals, it won’t be easy keeping Palace out.

[roydo]

Seriously?

Yep

 

[DanB90]

After our VAR decision against Brighton last season, I’ve no sympathy for any team with these decisions.
Game’s well and truly gone.

 

[Terrarian]

Tight game this, Palace look dangerous, need to keep concentration

 

[PhilM]

Palace work rate is impressive

It'll be interesting to see if they can keep it up because they looked to have a lot of stamina against United. This type of work ethic will get them some results.

 

[matty1878]

Yep

how

Honestly sick of this “deliberate or not” chat. If a player slides in, in the box, and takes an attacker out and it’s not deliberate, it’s a flipping pen.

I do not care if a handball is deliberate - If the hand/arm is away from the body and stops the ball, it’s a pen.
