Fabulously fat sam has done well, he has transformed the fortunes of his team and been the miracle worker the london based ponce owners desired.

That said, I reckon our first away win is long overdue, what better place to do it than at Palace.
Everything we desire is there for us, all the planning, all the false dawns,all the incredible wins we have picked up along the way.
The heady mixture of good/bad scores has taken us to this point in our season.
Now we need all that Dyche planning and fitness to come good, and it will. Slobbering sam and his 100 mph chewing gum jowels, will not be enough to outsmart our back bending gaffer on the touchline.
1-3 victory for the Clarets. two spectacular goals in the first half, an easy tap in in the 53rd minute, and a last gasp consolation affair for the palace faithful.
yes, we are going to win an away game this weekend.

ok

Sunderland won their 4 nowt. Impossible is nothing. We are better than sunderland. And we tubbed them 4-1.

Early benteke goal followed by relentless pressure. 8-1 burnley.

Positive 4-1
Realistic 3-0
I think we could see a similar style of game to the job Pulis did on us, allow us to have the ball and create nothing then destroy us on the break especially with Zaha, Puncheon, Schlupp and the other lightening fast players they have.

No Sakho

1-1

3-1 Palace

As good a performance as Everton but as for points and results, it's situation normal.

1-2 to us. Gray and a Brady screamer.

2-1 Palace

Followed by 3-4 days of non stop crying from the usuals despite being more than likely 5 points clear of relegation with 3 games to go and 2 at home.

1-1 (Gray)

0-2
Hendrick 2

Easy Barcelona style performance resulting in a 5-1 victory to the mighty Clarets. Goals from Grayx3* D4 and Ward.

*terms and conditions apply

Keane 3-1

We'll get thumped the whole game but Tom will keep a clean sheet and a Keane header in the last 15 minutes will seal our first win away this season

0-0 and we are hanging on.

One thing I suspect with this scoreline is that if it's 0-0 with ten minutes to go then both managers won't take any risks. Big Sam isn't daft and knows a point is another one towards safety.

Barton-style, I have backed against us, Palace winning at 8/11 putting on £30. I have usually done this at the end of our particularly tight last few seasons and will carry on until we're mathematically safe, not out of disloyalty but, if things go awry, to accumulate a bit of cash.
If we pick up a point or points, reeesult. If we don't, there's a little bit of compensation until we do.


Fwiw, I think we'll win tomorrow. Hendrick, oh yes.

0-1 is the most positive I can manage but realistically 1-0

Positive is we scab a nil nil or maybe a 1-1. I've not seen anything at all to suggest we are capable of winning this game.

being positive I would say palace will definitely win...and think it could be 2-0.

I'd be happy with the same score as 2 seasons ago: 0-0, though would be happier if we converted the late penalty this time.

you're right, but i really believe sean will have them super fired up for this one, 100mph stuff from the whistle. even if we go a goal behind, I think we'll still beat them. No time to be messing about now, no time at all.
Time for Andre Gray to show everyone how devastatingly dangerous he can be in front of their goals. ...a long wind assisted heaton kick into the back of their nets would be an added bonus too.

Positive -0-1

Realistic 2-0,maybe 2-1

Palace are a good side loaded with class players,mixed with the pragmatism that Big Sam brings to a squad. We're always susceptible to quick skilful sides and we'll need to be bang on form to get anything here.That said they're not unbeatable by any means and an early goal and desperate rearguard may well be the order of the day.Jntereting to see Tarks start and hopefully a Defour and Brady etc which is close to most people's strongest side

Positive then I'd go for a 2-1 win for but realistically
I'd reverse that and 2-1 for Palace.
It'll probably end up a draw and that would suit both teams.

Come on dom, I know the OP said be positive, but that prediction is completely unrealistic.

You think the crying will only go on for 3-4 days?

I was being positive, the realistic comment that the crying will never ever stop seemed unfair on a positive thread

A draw would suit both teams so 1-1.

2-0 loss.

2-0, however if we do manage to create something they'll get 3 to be sure.

The most drab, dull, miserable 0-0. Last on MOTD. A great point though! (The last bit is as positive as I can get...although I really would be happy with a point, quite frankly).

Can we control Zaha and Benteke ? If so we might just nick a point. Mee and Ward will be huge misses if they are unfit.

Mee and Ward will play, 0-1 Keane to score.

I think we can grab a goal (that's the positive), but going 3-1 Palace.

win

given the current Palace form, a win for them sees them safe. We are in poor form and are garbage away from home

Palace 5 Clarets 18 with a sublime chip from Joe Neenan settling our early nerves

Dreamt we won 3-1
So win guaranteed

2 -0 Palace .

Don't hold out much hope with potentially 3 first team players unavailable.

Would never be happier to be wrong though.



PS warning to all - Palace's match day catering was rated by Croydon Council and given 2 stars out of 5. Eat the pies if you like but take plenty of imodium for the journey home

(Burnley council gave Turf Moor 5/5)

Heavy defeat 4-0

I've been confident we'll lose all week. That's not like me so let's hope I'm wrong!

My prediction is 2-1 to Palace.

heart says 2-1 burnley

brain says 2-1 palace

unless flanagan is playing then i can feel a butt whipping coming on

Nothing but a Palace win. We are in dire straights.

Being positive, I'm positive Palace will win.

Palace 1 Burnley 2. I'm sure we can beat this lot

Positive 0-4
Negative 1-2 Palace first then two late goals from us Hendrick and Gray then the celebrations begin, first Away win this season

2-0. But still 5 points ahead of Swansea come next week.

thread for the hopelessly but perrenially optimistic.....no reason to think we'll get anything from today....we've done the smash and grab routine to death
.it didn't work in 14/15 and it's not working now.

3-0 to Palace

Not hopeful. 2-0

calamitous Coyote Claret, does for us every match,
Our only hope is a quick food count.
I made that 3000 haricot beans, 246 ml of mushy liquid, 1tin can, and our first away win with a completely crazy team.

3-1 to Palace, sadly.
