Do wish Zaha wasn't playing, he's the one player in CPFC2010 that really does get the rivalry

Surprisingly!? We can't beat them for love nor money at the moment and we've drawn 1-1 about 10 times over recent seasons!
Is 1-1 the acceptable score line agreed between the two clubs so both sets of supporters go home relatively happy and don’t start killing each other 🤔
I thought this after Sanchez flapped at an easy catch like a three year old would in the play ground 🤣

Hopefully Veltman will be winding him with some textbook dark arts stuff.

Don’t rule out the SA kids giving him grief as they warm up too. Enciso has that look of mischief in his eye.

You can only dodge the bullets for so long before you are taken out. Our recent performances against Palace have been a lot better than the results and it wouldn't suprise me if everything went right for once and we won big.
That statement has got 1-0 Palace written all over it!

That's the sort of logic which suggests that if the coin has landed on tails 7 times in a row, you should have a massive bet on heads.

At the moment of waking this morning, I had a massive surge of adrenaline. This is a match day and it's "that" match day.

I'm going to bed this evening either jubilant or in the foulest of foul moods. There will be no in between

I know we beat them with 10 men and we have the St Patricks day massacre but we still owe them big time for the play off defeat (was in a foul mood for weeks afterwards) and the 5-0 at their place (I was with my Palace loving Father-in-law in the main stand) so it's about time we did them at least 5-0 if not more. Then, and only then will my demons be exorcised! No better time than tonight please chaps!

I would often semi-jokingly sat “it’s got shock away win written all over it. This time I really fear it.
we have been doing so well and getting all the plaudits.
They‘ve been doing badly and three games in a row without a shot on target. It will all end in tears.
Hope I’m wildly wrong.
We haven't been doing that well though. One win in 4 vs all winnable games. Played alright but doesn't mean anything

Harsh but fair. Profligacy in front of goal has cost us a few points in the last month. We have to be clinical tonight as we will get chances.

I'm less nervous, more irritated by it and all the extra nonsense that comes with it in terms of getting to and into the ground, the nerves don't kick in until I'm in

I watched Palace's last game and they looked pretty decent; positive, attacking....

So it probably won't suit them to sit back and try to take us on the break, if they decide to try that.

We may not get the result we want but it could be an interesting game to watch.

A shame that we have to let their scum twat fans in, no doubt with oodles of flares shoved down their black trousers :facepalm:

Fair enough! Perhaps “playing that well” rather than “doing that well”. Getting all the plaudits without necessarily getting the results.
