Ridiculous. Radio 5 Live described the Palace performance at Leicester as "perfect in every way" and the co-commentator said it was "the best away performance he'd ever seen". We were not "lucky" at all. In fact, we should have had a penalty that wasn't given, and they only had a few good chances in the whole game. We completely deserved to win the game - and the Leicester fans on their forum agreed. We were the better team on the day, as you'll see if you have a look on their board

I would love to see two wingers playing for us but our wingers have hamstrings like candy floss strings.
Blackpool didn't beat us because they had their striker out injured even though they created lots of chances. Our lack of form recently could also be down to Bruno, CMS & Crofts getting injured. It works both ways.

But that's how I feel. I stand by that statement. I think you are seriously underestimating our current squad. It makes 1 Dec even more of a date to look forward to!

No doubt you have strengthened but so has everyone else so a bit of an odd comparison
Nobody can take your run away from you and only an idiot would suggest your current form is anything but impressive. But there is a long way to go yet so a bit early for anyone to be talking about nailed on top 6 finishes

We're going to get battered on the 1 December and make no mistake about it, you'll come at us like Blackpool did (even more so if Holloway is in charge) and lay siege to our penatly box for 90 minutes. We have to hope Kuszczack is on top form and lady luck is with us again to keep it respectable or it could be a long old night.

I'm looking beyond letters strung together. And you're Palace, you wouldn't expect compliments and praise on here, surely?!

Perfect in every way!
Brilliant, nice to know Mark Bright is still on the radio. Such praise is outrageous, best away performance he's ever seen? Presumably, then, he's a fan of Fulham and has never seen his team win away. If he thought your performance was good, considering the mistakes by Schmeichel in the opposing goal and the calamity of a refereeing decision at the end, he wants to have a little look at Tottenham at Old Trafford this season, or Man United at Newcastle. Or he just wants to watch a bit more football and stop making such stupid sweeping statements. I won't be looking at the Leicester forum though I'm afraid, it has nothing to do with the fact they beat us and we missed another penalty, it's more to do with the fact I really don't care. If Schmeichel had performed against us as he did against you, perhaps we'd have got a more favourable result. We didn't, he had his shocker against you and that's how your luck has been recently. Long may it continue....!

He is clearly new to football if he thinks a 2-1 away win is 'perfect' and the 'best away performance he's ever seen'

I hope you are right but it's a derby game. I can't wait for it but I'm not expecting a game that we will be battering you. It very rarely happens that way. Naturally i'm expecting a Palace win but it will be close, that's for sure!

Come on mate it's not that bad. There's a month for our form to turn around and Palaces to do the same... Start of the season we'd have destroyed them if we'd played them - remember that!

Derby games usually go against form. We were bottom of the division when we beat them at Selhurst in 2005.

And when they ended our brilliant undefeated run at the Amex it was against the form book. Just have to hope we get our shit together in time. Otherwise it's going to be difficult to watch.
I'd hardly call one game a "run".
