Crystal Palace v Watford - your predictions

[Se20]

Player for player it's no contest.

I think only Zaha and maybe Speroni could get into this Watford team.

Watford are superior all over the pitch. And have a far, far more tactically astute manager.

Only thing which worries me is how inexperienced Watford are and the big day might be too much for them.

But all things being equal, Watford should win comfortably.

Suits us right down to the ground, superior team and tactics ? That sounds familiar .

How will you feel if you don't?
I have had a look on BBS and a lot of fans giving it the big one, "Oh I don't care if we lose I am going to have a good day out"
I think this statement if a true fan, is all b*llox and I think the hurt that kicks in when you have lost such an important game is horrendous.
I have been to four BHA finals and the emotion is oh so different win, lose or draw. I was on cloud nine with winning against Bristol City. I had a good day out as your fans are talking about when we drew with Man United. But losing the replay and losing to Notts County ranked with the most painful days of being a Brighton fan.
Do I need to tell you what I hope for all your fans tomorrow?

We had the same sort of run up when we played West Ham. Sneaked in on the last day, then won the 2 leg semi away at fancied Sunderland.
Of course it would be great to win, the finances would sort out the stadium, but to get stuffed most weeks wouldn't be enjoyable.
I honestly believe the fans and team are quite relaxed about the whole day, and with Lloyd "paper" Doyley poo pooing Zaha in the build up ,is just great !

Speroni, Jedinak, Ward, Williams, Zaha and Murray would get into the Watford team. Unfortunately we're without Murray so we'll be relying massively on Zaha again.

Just saw a car, in south London, with pikey Palace flags on the roof. Felt a little queasy.

My prediction is that there will be an additional crap club in the premier league next season.

2-1 watford, palace will score in the 80th minute to make it a tense last 10 but won't score.

Have you seen what is in the Croydon Guardian about their players being 11 heroes? Beggars belief. Maybe they meant 11 zeroes.

As we're one day away from the big day, I want to gauge NSC's thoughts for the outcome.
This is for what you think will be the result NOT what you hope !
Me personally, I think we might just sneak it, but it will be very close.
Over to you lot.

If Deeney and Vydra are on form, then you're in sh1t. I say 2-0 to Udinese B

Palace 0 Watford 6 on the basis if we had got to Wembley we would have lost 2 nil.

 

[Mellor 3 Ward 4]

Palace should have beaten Watford at Watford, despite being awful for the first half.

It will be close, really depends on whether Watford 'go for it' from the start. If they do, the I don't think pAlace' s defence will cope.

whatever you think of Holloway, he's been there before.

Push comes to shove, Watord on pens....

BUMP

Wasn't a bad prediction was it !

 

[One Love]

Well done.

Quite how again every individual in the opposition threw in a stinker I don't know.

If the opposition team plays badly you can usually credit the team for making it happen but how do you explain individual performances so low again?
