Looking at their injury issues they are missing some key players including Estupidname, Solly March, Veltman, Lamptey, Webster, Fati Boy, and Encisco. If we can get under Dunk's skin he's always a walking red card against us too. If Eze and Lerma are back this could possibly be a great time to play them and I'm coming round to the idea that perhaps we should really be making a good fist at winning this and not just accepting the draw. If we win I couldn't give two figs how we do it. If we lose we better at least make it a fight, if we don't then the positivity around the City result will quickly vanish.

I'm changing my prediction from 1-1 to 3-1 to us. COYP.

Palace win 2-1

My local book makers has us at 2/1 with Brighton at 5/4 ,12/5 the draw

Get on , COYP !

And we still need a striker

For me it's a close 2-1 as we are ratcheting towards an above average side again.

Enjoying getting up later and not having someone who knows better than me (apart from the missus of course).

Huh..??

So what Hughes isn’t slow then - clearly you and I aren’t watching the same games..!!

COYP

Not far off! Same old dross!
