Could be worth a load of dough though as each place is worth a couple of quid. Absolutely right, but I was responding to a post about being relegated ‘by one goal’.

Just try to hold out for as long as we can. If Citeh score early I reckon we'll get thumped. If we can avoid a big dent in out goal difference that'll do for me.

3-1 City will be a bonus just for us to score as we haven't scored at the Etihad since promotion. Their defence isn't the best so think we can sneak one.

It's a nice thought, but I checked and they are only second to Liverpool in terms of the least goals conceded. They are also runaway leaders in terms of goals scored with an average of almost three goals a game.

Anything better than that and we’ve done well, but personally I can’t see it happening. It would be nice to be wrong though.

One thing for certain the usual criticism of Hodgson and Parish will be regurgitated, regardless of the fact we are playing one of the 2 best teams in the country at home, who are a million miles apart from us financially.

Get yer money ready - I'm working in Sheffield with a Man City ST holder so being a Palace ST myself I think we've got some sound knowledge between us right now. We've both agreed on the same prediction: Man City 2 Palace 0

1-1 is a ballsy shout. We did halt their run last season but they are simply irresistible at the minute. Gotta go for 3-1 with Zaha netting a late consolation goal. Is Zaha available Saturday?

Let's be honest there's probably not one Palace fan who doesn't think "well just maybe, or you never know etc etc" ....oh sod it 2-1 Palace Myer and Wilf
If I agreed with you we'd both be wrong |

I predict the commentators will tell us that the entire Palace squad cost less than the Man City bench.

We play better against the better teams. A surprise could be in the offing!
