3 points and a clean sheet - well done Pardew, you've saved your job. Still think a loss against Hull would be unacceptable but hoping we're starting to fix our problems and heading for better form.

A tremendous win and a cleen sheet.Lovely.Think I`ll have some beer.

we also improved our goal difference on Swansea by +8 today

Well that is a resounding result and we had some luck for a change but a disciplined defensive performance which conceded few threats to an in-form side - just a couple of shots on target I think. And none of the usual silliness at the end.

Welcome to Palace. Lose six on the trot, lose to the relegation contenders, then Southampton, who always beat us in the league, come to Selhurst and we stuff them three - nil. You couldn't make it up.

And it even looks as if AP has turned over a new leaf. It'll take more than this to make me eat all my words, but no stupid or unnecessary subsitutions - two of the three just to waste time - a revised defence and some proper discipline and concentration.

The simple defensive change that has been obvious for weeks seems to have made all the difference. What Delaney lacks in ability he makes up for in heroics, which is what you need after 6 losses and Ward looks fairly comfortable at LB (well, compared to Kelly anyway!)

Puncheon dominated the midfield in the second half and Bentenke put a good shift in. Also, is it just me or has Sako lost about four stone?

Great result and I'm hoping as one of the lonely supporters of Pardew that this will see a reversal of fortunes.

Prick.
