Re: Palace away - quietly optimistic...

Not expecting a result, but I just want us to at least show a bit of fight! If we are going to get beat, let's at least make Palace come away thinking they've been in a tough game. Far too often this season games have passed us by, and we've done very little to make the opposition get out of second ...

Re: Thread for tonight?

Opposition aside, as tonight is a pointless exercise... I think this has got to be the softest, most unlikeable Burnley team I've seen. There just doesn't seem to be any passion, pride or grit. I know it's an unquantifiable thing but you can sense it can't you? All footballers at this level are pam...

Re: Weak, powder puff , gutless and simply not good enough

It all started with a summer of rank bad recruitment. A team that is unbelievably disjointed and massively overweighted with luxury type players.

Wouldn’t go that far, but there is a worrying trend emerging. Once we go a goal down there’s a real lack of desire and belief we can get back into the game. You expect more defeats in the PL, but the manner in which we’re whimpering out of games is happening too often now for it to be coincidental. ...

Apart from the odd 20 mins here and there, we’ve not consistently put in a good performance for the full 90.
