The best coach I ever played for was an ex palace player from the fifties or sixties named John Edwardson..... He played locally until he was 53 and still stood out.... Lovely man who I still see everyday.
 

this is going to be an annoying match as I can see the RS getting 4 or 5.

would be funny if they got beat though
 
Hard to believe but we finished third in 1990/91 behind Arse and the RS. Decent side generally; Nigel Martyn, John Humphrey, Andy Thorn, Eric Young, Richard Shaw, Eddie McGoldrick, Geoff Thomas, Andy Gray, John Salako, Mark Bright, Ian Wright. Stevie Coppell in the dug out. Great times.

quality side that mate, that front 2 were brilliant to watch.
 

Report from the Reichstag; Watched the second half of your game on the concourse. General outrage and disbelief at the "penalty" call and genuine groans when Howard did everything but save it. A bout of "Everton, Everton, Everton" followed but I think mainly to annoy the RS stewards, staff etc.
Another new line up and another new formation for us didn't bode well. I must admit looking at their attacking line up made me think we wouldn't get away with a clean sheet. I am very sorry to say that the Suarez/Sturridge combo just looked too good. It did for us after a reasonable start. They got their regulation pen and that was it really.
Their support was shockingly poor. We really couldn't get them to respond but they finally bit at ; "First trip to Anfield, Is this your first trip to Anfield?"
We had a bit of keep ball at one time and giving it the "hooray, hooray" every time we made a pass and kept the ball and followed it up with a "We're Crystal Palace, We're taking the piss." I don't think they do irony.
Anyways, more a snatch at the groin than the actual bumming predicted so onwards and....err......well we're still not bottom.

Lol this made me smile.... Is the correct attitude mate... I don't think you'll be going down...
 
One final point. A scour of youtube today revealed something called Red or Dead TV or some such tosh. It consisted of one foul mouthed lardy desperately asking why RS were so poor in the second half. During a ten minute or so illogical diatribe he pondered this problem back and forth without once mentioning even the name of their opponents, let alone how they played or what player or tactical changes were made at half time. They are utterly deluded self aggrandising ****s of the highest order.
 
Would it be out of the question for Alan to write weekly Palace match previews, ala Chico?
He's very quickly making me wish them a disproportionate amount of good will before all their games...
