Top preview that. We can't score though so it'll be a 0-0 and everyone in the Lower Paddock will fume for 17 seconds before going home and watching Midsomer Murders on Sky+.
Palace are on a decent run of late, and we've hit a rough patch, this won't be easy. A true test of character from the team for me, I'd take a well put together 1 nil.
If we keep the ball for as much as 35% Pulis will go radio. 20% at most and echoing to the screams of GETRID. Beautiful prose Chico, I'm really very touched. Occasionally, very occasionally, we pull something completely unexpected off. Sadly, as I am coming wearing a long frock coat and a three cornered hat and bringing a bird called Josephine, it's not tonight . We won't be parking the bus though, nothing as modern as that. More like pulling up the draw bridge and occasionally sending out swift (ha!) and vicious raiding parties to subdue the established order of things. If after the game you see a good looking young fella thumbing a lift back towards the M62....it will be my lad. Leave him. That will learn him!
I'll be at Melbourne Airport checking in for a flight to Auckland when they kick off, but I'll record it and watch it when I get home next Tuesday. Same with the Swansea cup-tie. My Red supporting brother-in-law will be on the flight so he'll find out what's happening with his bells and whistles smart phone.
I think we'll be alright with the Palace match, but it'd be nice if Fulham gave them a touch up at the same time. That's if they
play. I heard it might be postponed because of a Tube strike
Can't make tonight's game which is first home game I've missed in a while. Hate missing home games, doesn't feel right...
Anyway, of all the games this season I would contently miss, this would be in the top 3. It will be a terrible game and if we keep a clean sheet we will have enough going forward to win.
Fancy traore to come on and bag a goal
Howard may pop up with another goal if the wind is really bad
