Southampton 1 up after 6 mins, hehe.

Can't be that good taking 6 minutes to score

I predicted 2-1 Palace.

Hodgson out.

Palace lose this and will have to wait a while for next opportunities - maybe end of October against West ham
Sept

Media reporting that Ex-Claret Stephen Reid has been appointed first team coach at Palace.

How bad is Shane Long

Forster has made 2 great, although lucky saves. Seemed harder to miss.
When your luck is out, it's out.

Can see Southampton giving them a sucker punch.

Hold on, he's still got 3 games left after this one, no need to rush.

Can't be that bad considering the number of people bashing one out at the thought of us signing him is summer

Palace now hold the record for longest time from the start of the season without a goal in the Premier League beating Newcastle's 438 mins

Knowing Palace they'll win the next 3 and then lose to Newcastle.

Finished 0-1. Poor Palace.

So that is them and Brighton - they will have a lovely time in the Championship together - now who wants to join them - Fear for Udders but kind of want them to stay up - good for us in terms of a local match and winds up Leeds - just not sure they have the depth

Udders will spend a bit I reckon in January if required.
They've had a good start and will be full of confidence.

Still far to early yet. CP don't look to bad tbh, a bit better finishing and they could have won last week and today. They don't look completely hopeless.

Losing winnable games. Isn't that a pretty good definition of hopeless though?

Agreed. I don't think they'll go down.

I'd say not creating chances was hopeless. Scott Dann should have had a hat trick last week. I like loftus cheek thought he looked good today. They've enough quality to stay up and Zaha will improve them.

Long was excellent for Saints today.

How were Saints allowed to play in blue shorts and socks when CP were in blue shorts and socks?
Bloody horrible watch.
