How are the other team worse, Palace are joint bottom.
Whilst I'm loving the Palace run at present, half expect them to string two or three wins together and avoid relegation. Until that happens though I will be winding up their fans on Twitter and the airwaves...
If roles were reversed and we'd just been tonked 4-0 at home (and by half time) by the only worse team in the league than us, I'm not sure watching you lot nick a draw having been 2-0 and 3-2 down would make me feel any better at all.
I guess in your situation though, you have to take any crumb of happiness you can find.

You're as big a bullshitter as the rest of the Palace fans on here. Let's get this right - you saw your side slip even further into relegation, you lost 4-0 at home to the bottom side, you've won only twice at home all season and there's a toxic atmosphere at your ground with fans turning on each other and on the players, and players turning on the fans. But you felt a lot better (capital letters better!) watching your arch-rivals draw. Yeah, of course it did. Brighton drawing puts all the season's misery for your club and the increased risk of relegation all into perspective.

To be honest, given the way they defended on Saturday, I'd rather they made Palace play Delaney play every game for the rest of the season than ban him.

Sorry, I know I quoted you, but my question was directed at the Palace fan Soz.

Sorry, I'm going to have to take issue with you on this.
Who says Sunderland are worse than Palace? Far better side, if Saturdays performance is anything to go on.
Losing 1-0 to Chelsea really hurt. But not as much I imagine as Albion knocked out of the Cup by a non-league side.
Or did you throw the game, then..
I was going by the league table, that's all. Even if it is down to GD these days, that does suggest Sunderland are worse.
Of course, that can change.

Sorry but I think they are a broken side at the moment and with the verbal attack on the players at half time and at the end of the match, they really cannot be looking forward to playing any home games at present. In fact their next home game could be a very pivotal game against Middlesbrough, lose that I think the fans will go into meltdown.
In thart case on a one-off basis you're worse than Preston, Huddersfield and Lincoln City.
Never mind, you have "Fortress Amex"...

I think your clutching at straws if you think we were bothered by a team of second choice players got knocked out of the cup.
0-4 at home fella, if all you have is Lincolns victory to throw at us.... keep going...
0-4 at home in the first half aswell....
Bloody hilarious

Except we've got significantly more points than them over the last 10/20 games. FA Cup is irrelevant and was our reserve side anyway.
I don't have the stats but, given their start to the season, I would imagine Sunderland have a lot more points over the last 10 games than you do.

Not quite the same though is it, none of those teams have won at the Amex this season least of all 4-0..

Although I am of the view that there is a good case for starting Hemed in away games. I should mention that Murray has been scoring all his goals at home this season. The suspension versus Cardiff has interrupted his current run of scoring in six consecutive matches at the Amex.
In the last five and a half games he has played at home, (half because of the sending off against Wednesday) he has actually scored eight goals. That is five more than all of Palace's players have managed together in their last six home games. (Their total of three being bolster by two against Division One Bolton).
Our next two games are at home. We really look forward to home games. They don't feel at all like a depressing duty visit to relatives you don't get on with. We don't spend all week thinking about the inevitable pain and despair that the next humiliation will heap upon us. It feels really good.

Well, we were on the day, no denying that. Our manager even said it. But, with only four(that's 4) league defeats this season, I'm sure most Albion fans are quite satisfied with our overall form. Your support on the other hand, seem to want to fight your players,your players don't want to play, and even your manager admits you are stinking your ground out.
I wouldn't trade your club for ours, for a ton of gold.
Listening to an Albion fan on Beesotted, he admitted that you're having a bad blip at the moment, without Stephens in midfield. Another one claimed Sidwell was the only Albion player to play the full 90 minutes.
A little inexperience from Canos at the end when he could have run the ball to the corner-flag rather than crossing into the box, cost Bees the 2 points for a win. So I guess Hughton will have you all in for extra training. And Murray can have extra training in how to stay on his feet as well. He never fell over for the team at Palace.

They'll get out of this mess of course. This is a 'Top 8 Squad' we're talking about after all.
