I wonder if anyone at the game can confirm how much of a warm up MO had before the second half? Was he out on the pitch during half time ?
I got vision, and the rest of the world wears bifocals.

Funnily I have questioned warm up effectiveness for Palace players. Henderson was injured 6 or 7 weeks ago after an early keeper kick that looked suspiciously like it was caused by lack of proper warm up.
If I was Parish I’d be all over this as if it is a contributing factor it would be inexcusable from the players, coaching and staff and culture at the club which would point to apathy.
Is Roy good at this minutia stuff or has he just become a big picture statesman figure.

Exactly. Less about if he was deemed fit, more about to lunacy to bring on our most important half injured player when 3-0 down. Shut up shop, take hte loss and move on.
Indefensibly stupid decision.
Losing our best player for Burnley, Luton, and Everton. Games that could have secured our season.
If he was even on the bench then our medics/ physios must have said he was okay to play at least some of the game. Methinks the "stupid decision" is more appropriately accredited to them.

As I and others were saying on here live on the match thread just before half time please god don’t bring Olise on in second half UNLESS we get 2 goals back and there’s a sniff of a result. Only then risk him towards the end. That was the sensible risk reward decision and we called it. To risk him, 3 goals down for a whole half showed fuzzy thinking. Was the mistake compounded by him not having time to properly warm up. Let’s not even go there. 😟
Anyway…mistakes are made. We all make them. Roy was clearly panicking at half time and perhaps wasn’t thinking clearly. I forgive.

Nobody recovers from a hamstring problem or even a tweak in four days.
He shouldn't have even been on the bus to Brighton. Tinpot.

His mum had even written a note for his P.E. Teacher to ask to be excused games for a couple of weeks.....
