Obviously it's a huge game for so many reasons.
It's always massive, and there still haven't been that many clashes in the past 25 years for us 40-somethings.
There are recent demons to be exorcised, notably last year at home which went straight in to my top five worst footballing experiences ever.
There is a lot on the line in terms of our fading play-off chances, and their automatic promotion hopes.
And it is a very big game for Gus, who will get some deserved criticism if it all slips away again for the second season in a row.
So do you get involved financially as well as emotionally? And could you possibly back them as insurance against the nightmare scenario?
I am very surprised to see Palace are more than 2-1 (21-10) with BetVictor for this game. They are playing well, have the pace to really hurt us, more star performers and need the points.
Brighton are around 6-4, which is also not a bad price for a home game if you think we can overcome the issues up front.
