Crystal Palace vs Aston Villa pre match thread

Birthday win please Villa.

I'll take a draw after last weeks bonus win

[SoccerHQ]

If we defend really well (you'd think Emperor Mings will be in a good mood after today's news) then I fancy us to grind out a 0-1.

Would take a draw but think this is our best opportunity in the coming weeks for a prem away win.

Double up on Zaha and they don't have much else to hurt you with although Ayew had a stormer last week, Man. United probably preparing 60m bid in January.

Hopefully Benteke will think it's 2014 again and dribble from halfway line and score in his own net, that must be our only win at Selhurst since the mid 90s?

[Smirker]

We will FTF.

[AVH87]

Got a feel of a 1-0 Villa win about it for me. Hopefully we turn in a big performance before the early international break.

[Legion]

D 1-1.

Poll added. Only mods can add a poll to an existing thread, mere mortals can start a thread with a poll though, just click "new poll" instead of "new topic".

Can't the peasants modify their own initial post any more?

[PeterWithesShin]

Non mods can edit their own posts and thread titles, but I don't think they can add a poll once they've started a thread. Not 100% sure as it's difficult remembering how it was as a commoner.

[Sexual Ealing]

I'm going to this. I apologise for the result.

[Bad English]

1-3 Palace battered to fuck.

[Small Rodent]

All my Palace friends at work and in the pub are not very hopeful of this game.

Very odd negativity from them.

[Sdwbvf]

Hope we win. My daughter's class is 90% palace fans and it would be nice for her to go back taking the piss out of them for a change!

[Sexual Ealing]

I work with three Palace fans, having never met one before I started there. I like them all so I'm not sure what my point is, but I'm delighted that I've made it.

[OzVilla]

We are due a draw - 2-2. Wesley and Engels.

My late father in law was a big Palace fan, and my brother in law and his kids are season ticket holders and they go away a lot.

No point to it either, other than I hope we batter them so I can laugh at the gobshite when I next see him.

(He's actually a great bloke, just an incessant wind up merchant)
