I thought I might feel sorry for Brighton but our win was so laughably outrageous that ecstasy took over. I was dreading the last ten minutes but somehow Brighton lost it in that period - they misplaced passes and it seemed they had given it their all and would now take the draw. In added time the commentator was talking about both sides settling for a useful point each - but I still dreamed the dream of Palace nicking a winner and lo and behold it came true.
The right place at the right time |

After a couple of days since we committed floodlight robbery, as a lot of people have coined a phrase. I was thinking, I can’t recall Guaita having to make many saves during the game or Brighton hitting the woodwork. There were a few scrambles in our box, but were we really battered? Admittedly we were under pressure for nearly the whole game, but a lot of the time Brighton were limited to long range shots and aimless crosses. Let’s not get carried away, they played better than us for sure and look at where they are in the table, they will get turned over by WBA , I’m sure of it, then let’s see how good they are.

For all the reasons you list, we absolutely were not battered. As I keep saying, we stole the win but only after we had earned the draw we came for. Whether folk think we should have gone for more than the draw is another matter, but that's not the point.

BHA were given a warning as Tekkers hit one over the bar before he scored the winner. The build up for the winner we had 4 or 5 players breaking from midfield for the first time in the entire game which is incredible...
