Getting dominated by Brighton and stealing points is par for the course. They were all over us in the away game last season and we came away with a point and I think in Roy’s final season again in the away game I remember them battering us and Benteke nicked it in injury time. The fact is no matter how well they play they can’t beat us and haven’t beaten us in the last four seasons.

Southampton are toast. Prawn Crackers. RiP their premier league status. Way too soon to be talking about teams already being down. It’s not like they are 10 points adrift of safety. Other clubs have survived from a lot worse position than they are in and they will have a new manager soon.

Only last night in conversation with a Southampton supporter, I asserted that I was not going to condemn his team to relegation when they had 16 games to play and were not seriously cut adrift. I also opined that Jones would not be in charge for their next game and that they could well benefit from a new manager 'Bounce' !

I think Everton did exactly the right thing appointing Dyche but he's won one game albeit against the league leaders. So time will tell. And if you seriously think an ' Elite ' manager like Tuchel would come to Palace....

After witnessing another sad showing, is it possible to get to the magic 38 points before the final 3 games or is it all going to come down to that? With 16 games remaining, can't see more than 2 points picked up until april, so that's 27. Can we pick up 11 in April against bottom half of table? Doubtful as many are playing much better. Realistically perhaps 6. So that leaves us 5 short of 38 with that last 3 against? Bournemouth will likely already be relegated so lets assume 3, Fulham might be playing for Europe so let's assume loss. Sitting at 36, will a draw at home against Forest be enough on last day of season and get to 37 points. Who will take the penalty against Forest to stay in the Prem? At least this season may have some excitement at the end...

each to their own opinion... but thats the risk id take right now, even if the worst happened and we got relegated twice to league 1 then so be it?!?!? id still have my season ticket and we would push on to hopefully win the league!! as someone else said, this premier league marlarky used to be fun... but not any more.... just my opinion though Originally posted by Swindy

Thought it interesting to compare the current position of 25 points after 22 matches played to the last two seasons of Roy Hodgson’s time as manager. Many felt that those last two years under Hodgson the football was turgid and boring, although yesterday’s performance certainly fits that description as well. In both 19/20 and 20/21 seasons the points total was 29. So the current league position is somewhat misleading as being 4 points worse off means there is a bigger danger of being drawn into the relegation scrap. Also, despite the new approach to playing that PV is supposed to have instigated and far more recruitment of new players that he has been allowed compared to Roy the team is actually worse off in points. Not a good realisation and surely one which should concern SP and the board

Certainly PV hasn't broken the mold and we look more like a bad Royball team with each passing game.
