Originally posted by Scoots Announcers aside, combined with no calls our way, isn’t this what you expected to see. We are a team that needs time to solidify our style and players comfort. …….oh and it is one of the top squads in all of Europe at home. We need time to see what we will become. I would not be upset to write this game off and see what our youth can bring to the match. Hard to disagree with anything you've stated. After all we playing the European champs, but I wish we wouldn't give them so much respect. We look timid, have a go FFS, no one really expects us to get anything (points wise) out of this match anyway. "Billy Gilbert really is God"

Originally posted by JRW2 I hated the commentary because it sounded all too believable. So I turned it off. Once Chelsea go ahead I'll go back to it. Yeah, I hate commentators, they all suck and these guys are right down there with the rest of them. You would think that since a lot of us watch via the internet you'd be able to mute the commentary but keep the crowd noise. It can't be that technically hard to do. But they don't. Success will lie to you but failure always tells you the truth.

Listening on R5. Fair score atm Clearly chelski are the better side. I hope for a fight but by expect it could be 4 against. We have to be pragmatic about Palace.

Lets not forget that BEIN sports is based in Qatar & they get to view / comment on all of the very top teams pretty much every game played, when you are paid to focus on the top top teams in the world making a comment on Palace doing their best to stem the tide against Chelsea who have just won the EC & the super cup & who have the ability to spend £97.5 million on a new striker (just as an example) its all too easy to sound derogatory. Originally posted by tonymikejoe Tough words from the BEIN commentator, who described us as "woeful" as we trudged off at half-time. Back in the studio Richard 'It was just banter' Keys said we "had taken a hiding". He also made a big deal of Zaha apparently complaining about something to McArthur as they walked off, adding: "That's not a good sign," as he attempted to stir the pot of controversy within the camp.

How often have we been in the last 10 seasons.. Still glad to see the change at our club, with the proviso of staying in the league..
