Early days but we are too passive and giving them all of the options.
We need to start having a go at them really otherwise we will just be under the cosh

We are Crystal Passive and we don't care lol

That's 4 points from 2 games, but doesn't feel that way.
A handful of shots over the two games and holding out for 0-0 at home against a team 3rd from bottom.
Not for me but I'm sure plenty will disagree.

We need Zaha and Schlupp desperately on the pitch.

I think I'm done watching Palace matches now. Call me when there's some management interested in us playing football.

I didn't see the game as I was I watching the new bedroom paint dry.

Did I miss anything ?

On loan from Chelsea but, yes, he would be an immense addition to our midfield

 

Man and boy Palace since my first game in 1948 sitting on my dad's shoulders

Townsend had a blinder. Benteke back to his normal heavy legs, slow coach self. Why Mateda didn’t come on, god only knows.

Clean sheet.

4 points from the last 2.

Stink the place out with our lack of flair.

Overall, a step closer to safety and the big rebuild.

It's the life, digging hard for the silver lining. Too hard sometimes.

I'll stick to my assessment that that was agreed beforehand. It is impossible not to have a pop on goal in a game against lowly opposition unless you really don't want to. Bringing the game into disrepute and not for the first time.

Are you for real? Agreed beforehand lol ? All i see is one young team in form and desperate for a win and one older team missing injured players and quite happy with a draw.

You can't fault the effort of the players and a point is not a bad result, but my god it's getting harder and harder to watch. We can only hope that if we quickly grind out another 4 or 5 points Roy might decide we can have the football back again (I have my doubts though). One positive is that these last two games were a good rehearsal for the pounding our defence will take on Wednesday.

Cahill MOTM, but Vicente and Andros put a shift in too. Luka hit one great pass and then resorted to being slow and useless. Eze had his weakest game. He has played two games in the middle now and looked lost. Maybe time to go back on the left.

Worryingly for Fulham we showed that you snuff out Lookman and they look fairly toothless. Hopefully if they get relegated we make a move for him. Maja looks good too.

Be careful what you wish for, and don't entertain thoughts of our team getting forward and having attempts on the opposition's goal, you may be accused of not being a real Palace supporter.

Not a single shot on target, at home to Fulham. To go with the 2 shots last Monday. Royball - 4 points and scraping by in order to stay in the division to try and do the same next season. Time to the ring the changes, if we go down, we go down, but I don't see the point of this.

Absolutely, have we resigned him yet?

Ah now come on thats not a fair statement . We did nearly get an own goal of a Townsend cross . does that count as a shot on target

I counted six attempts where we ran at them with their defence stretched and down we went, I lost count of the amount of times Ayew was fouled trying to run with the ball ..same for Eze.

 
Pete53 Flag Hassocks 28 Feb 21 2.09pm

Its a sign of the times that I find myself breathing a sigh of relief when the whistle goes and we hang on for a point - 0-0 against a bottom three side!

Cavaileiro brought some energy as well, got me worried. Mitrovic was useless tho.

You know full well Mr Gribbo that that's not the case, we have key players out injured and what's left is knackered, next season half this squad will be gone.

We are in transition and you know it.

 
manoftaste Flag Hastings 28 Feb 21 2.12pm

Absolutely agree. Week after week it's the same.
I feel flat as a pancake. 60 years watching Palace, and I've seen many bad performances, but I honestly can't remember us ever playing so negatively week after week. It's tedious, joyless stuff that is sapping the life spirit from the players (Eze has lost all his confidence and bravado) and those who have to watch it.
Dreadful.

Well to be fair to Mr Gribbo, that is exactly what is "sensible business". We are now good at avoiding relegation, which is great business. Risk taking is not. Rebuilding from a business perspective need to be done conservatively. And I hate all that.
