Probably the most embarrassing thing to our club is that we have supported Liverpools success in recent years, but providing them with 50 mio GBP for two of the most useless players in our histrory. One good, but constantly injured, and thus of no use, the other just piss poor.

but with the safety of 29 points Oh, so that's okay, then. The (at least) ten points still required need to come during this run of so-called 'easier' matches. But without Zaha, these matches are anything but easy. If we still need eight points by the time Zaha's fit again, that'll coincide nicely with the run of harder matches. Far too much complacency far too soon.

It's embarrassing that we are solely dependent on Zaha. We have a manager who only has tactics that are out of date, a chairman who remains conspicuously silent. It's embarrassing that we're still playing in a 1960's stadium. It's embarrassing that we rely more on ageing free transfers to bolster our squad and reward inept millionaire forwards with contract extensions. But what is truly embarrassing is I hope we get thrashed by Brighton.

Two out and out centre forwards - Played because we are short of midfielders ? Why send Kirby and Banks on loan? When are they going to be given the opportunity...,

Poor old seaweed could come to our rescue. With their fluent, attacking football it could well be 6-, 8- or even 10-0 on the 22nd. At least that should be the final straw for Roy. A new manager cannot make the players younger, but no manager on earth can be worse at motivating players, and few can be poorer on substitutions. I'm more worried about playing Fulham, we could well end up with 10% procession! lol The game today was summed up nicely when we cleared the ball up high with enough time to make a cup tea before it came down with only yellow players waiting for it, not one of our team had a clue, what's the worst possible word for embarrassing?

I think the last home game that we have been so humiliated against not a top team was in the Championship years ago when Wigan newly promoted beat us 0-5 .I think from memory the manager possibly Alan Smith was sacked afterwards.I’m sorry to say I think Roy should too after this debacle!! It was away and Kember got sacked. Symons took over as temp before Dowie took over. We were humbled 0-4 by scunthorpe at home when Warnock was manager and by the same score by Brum when Holloway was in charge.

There are players in the squad that clearly give zero f about the team and are just there for the pay day. Tekkers, Batts, Sakho, Cw and Milo need to go. Zero leadership, terrible man management an utter shambles from the top down. The club needs to change course now, not decide at the end of this season, Roy has no idea I if he will be offered a contract (which shows) players have zero direction. It’s a full on s show at Selhurst, with the only saving grace is none of us have to pay to see it live.
