[Football] Fan's view of the season (so far)

[loz]

I notice the Palace gimp has COMPLETELY whitewashed our game from his psyche. Worst moment - "Watford away in the Carabao Cup not scoring a goal" - yeah, right-o.

Says it all.

TBF palace lost that game in the last minute wear as palace drew the game against Brighton which was a better result than most palace fans thought would happen.

Not on 95 minutes it wasn't.

Best performance is given as Palace where we were non-descript for large stretches and deserved nothing better than the point we scraped...

Worst performance is given as Arsenal where we frequently played them off the park and deserved all 3 points?

What sort of moron is this 'fan' and could we get a better one in next time?

To be fair, although they were asked about the best performance, they did actually say 'the best result'. And I'd agree. That 1-1 draw was the best 'result' we've had this year in my view (PS - I didn't write it...).

Yes, they seemed to be asked one question and answer their own one. I presume they work in politics

A “Stephanie Fincham” also gets thanked as being part of The Guardian Weekend Team in the Acknowledgements sections of a couple of books written by Guardian journos.

So I think it’s a fair assumption to make that she actually works at The Guardian, and therefore chances of displacing her as the go-to “fans’ voice” are zero.

An employee of the guardian utterly detached from reality? What are the chances?

 

[Weststander]

A crap take.

Watford, Leicester and Arsenal were quality, as good as it gets. Does the writer lack a memory?

If we're talking results, why is a draw, against a team that had won one game this season (against a 10man team), and historically is lower half, a better result than a comfortable win against a buoyant Watford, or the only win a team has against a Brentford side that has faced Arsenal and Liverpool, or a 2-1 victory over a leicester side that is usuallly at the top end of the table?

Pretty laughable review. I really hope whatever her job at the Guardian is, it doesn't involve sports writing.

 

[Machiavelli]

Well, I agree with the critiques of the Arsenal and Palace aspects, but the reviews from this fan have been good historically, and we will have to wonder if this piece was written by a male whether the response on here would have been similarly vitriolic.

 

[Rogero]

NSC at its best with many being very picky . The article is fine .

 

[BNthree]

Yeah.

I was thinking more along the lines of who they were - someone on here, someone who runs a BHA website etc. Or just an old intern.

The answers are decent part from the obvious - Palace our worst performance and Arsenal our best. Still, anything to talk about Maupay making them cry and Zaha being his usual **** self is good publicity in my book

I guess if you keep saying it like you have on this thread you may end up believing it’s true don’t blame your fan for ignoring it but it’s funny they did still Watford in the league cup the worst result

I would just have thought that with 12,000 posts on here you may have seen plenty of vitriolic posts aimed at everybody and anybody at some time !
