With a big capacity, Hillsborough is nearly always half empty and the atmosphere is a bit dead. The stands are massive, but old and have pillars in the way too.

Palace fans will be seated behind the goal in the upper tier of the West Stand with an allocation of 3,700. The view and seat leg room is good, but there are a couple of annoying pillars in the way.

Hark now hear the Wednesday sing, United ran away (again), and we will fight forever more because of Boxing Day!

I never felt more like singing the blues, the Wednesday win, United lose, oh Wednesday, you've got me singing the blues.

There's only one Carlos Tevez!

Going down, going down, going down! and You're just a small team in Yorkshire!
