I know we are the better team, good at home while they are not the best away and they are missing their top scorer so why am I so bloody pessimistic about tomorrow?
Having just seen Watford and a refs decision nearly gift the game to Leicester I'm having visions of Zaha doing what he does best and conning the ref and the non stop grief that will come with it.

Because football often goes against expectation, the team on a losing streak being the ones to end a winning streak, the depleted team beating the one with a fully healthy squad, the part timers beating the pros, etc

For fark's ache!! There is only ONE thing going to happen tomorrow night - a BHA victory, followed by a mass pitch invasion and taunting of sobbing Palace fans. Anyone who thinks otherwise is quite frankly a f****ng idiot (excuse my French).

A lot of people thought we'd get torn apart on St Patricks Day and the opposite happened.

No guarantees in Football.

its a lottery so lets hope we take our chances when we get them. The team I wanted to avoid was Watford not Palace they looked very strong today

I've come back home.

That's just being realistic. Over 100 games we would come out on top, but 1 game has a greater chance of an upset.

We should win but we may not.
