They would have had a flea in their ear all week and we're due to beat Palace.  I'm going for an unconvincing 2-0 win that still provides more questions than answers.

Christ.
Nervy Villa Park, shite time. Cliche but need an early goal, or nerves will take over. Ive heard they’ve returned lots of tickets, if true I can’t say I blame them, given the journey and such a shit time of the week. We need to be noisy.

Head says 0-2 them, but feck that, 2-0 us (Watkins 2).

Crystal sodding Palace. Hello darkness my old friend. I know they've sold him but I still expect Eze to score against us. Can someone buy Sarr before Sunday, please?

Palace only took the lower tier of the away allocation so anyone wanting tickets together may have more joy in the upper as it can be a struggle elsewhere.

Of all teams to play when we’re nervy.
The streak ends here.


We score a late goal to nick it by one.

Yup, loads in P8-P11 at the moment. First of the season for me and the kids.
