So they have effectively ended our season by ending our dream of Europe, while winning the kind of silverware we can only dream of, in one of the greatest days in their history. They'll probably do the double over us and relegate us next season.

Yep, they've capitalised on the opportunities - something which we fail to do over and over and over again. We've had great chances to win things, but we've bottled it every time. Palace, just like when they knocked us out of the playoff semis, know how to win when it matters. It is what it is.

I think the only way to face this is to accept... Despite everything we are doing in football, how far we've come and everything we've achieved so far.... Palace will always be better than us.

Yep. Not only really will it end our season - it could be an achievement that we'll NEVER surpass. Somehow, Palace always seem to ultimately get one over on us. Come on City. Please wreck their dreams and keep our season alive.

Var, huh, what is it good for?

Another troll has already tried this. Went down like a lead balloon. https://www.northstandchat.com/threads/good-luck-to-palace-this-weekend.413470/

A man and woman shouts sexist abuse at each other. Man goes to prison, woman doesn't, as misogyny is a hate crime. I don't have much of an issue with misogyny being added to the ever-growing list of hate crimes, but surely in the name of fairness, misandry should be included too. Interesting...

Lots of new support proposed for minority groups, but not men. Are we invisible? Why should misogyny be a hate crime, but not misandry? Why persist with the triple-lock? The wealthy pensioners aren't the ones in desperate need of help right now in our society Why should 16-17 year olds be able...

Best prime minister in a life-time. Possibly the best of all time. Please, please, electorate, can we keep him for another term 🙏

I really don't think it matters. It's a different world, and a different game. Mark McGhee & Micky Adams would fail miserably at this level, regardless of any 'coaching accreditations" they have. Which is why they are no longer working at this level (or anything close.). Even in their day, in...

Do you even know what you're trying to talk about? You seem to be just spouting words here, no offense. Please consider that coaching and playing football are separate and distinct disciplines.

Obviously. But not at the level we're at now, which is my point.

Er... Why exactly?

I mean, it's a nice conversation, at best. But it's a little bit cringe-worthy. Two dinosaurs of the game, who have never managed at this level, giving advice to a modern manager who is already playing a high standard of football than these have ever managed at. I love Mark McGhee and Micky...

He's Japanese. He's earning a great wage and is doing BHAFC and more importantly to him, Japan, proud. Can see him staying until he feels he's not good enough to play at this level anymore.

Global warming. They have been predicted this for a long time. Not yet a drought, but if/when it becomes one, it'll be increasingly common. "bUt We HaD a DrYeR sPrInG iN 1961!!!" - global warming deniers

It's incredibly common. Most of us have to watch our weight from our early 20s, as we are allowed to drink what we want and eat what we want. It forces (most of) us to get into good habits. Footballers, or sportsmen, don't have the same experience. They are usually disciplined with their diets...

Isetta Square (New England Street) - now flats.

Mitoma's not going anywhere. He's Japanese.

They really are. Especially given the circumstances, Starmer and his government are really doing a phenomenal job. They are doing what they can to address all the key issues that we are all concerned about. It is really refreshing, and exciting. But what I find genuinely depressing is that the...
