They've a pretty dire record here. I can only ever recall the Pulis win in the league.

Looking it up and we lost in 2013, 1991 and 1967. Think some of you have lost the plot bricking it against this lot at home. Not due another defeat until 2033.

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.

Yeah my brother in law who's a Palace fan tells me they've returned 1500 tickets.

Who'd have thought, for a Sunday night 7:00pm kick-off and then having to get back to their neck of the woods?

But the mid-week sell out for us down there was somehow more convenient? Their away support is shite, drum wankers.

And Emery owes Glasner. i doubt there are many times in his career he”s had a draw and three defeats in a row to the same team and coach.

Can't see Guessand being deemed ready to start and Malen clearly isn't trusted, so it leaves us with a few holes in the attacking side to be honest. 

When Wales played Belgium in a qualifier earlier in the year,  Onana and Tielemans played together in central midfield so could see that happening.  If Rogers plays as a number 10. that leaves a hole on the left side with McGinn currently the only option to fill it.  That would mean McGinn moving from the right, which leaves a hole there which really we would need Guessand or Malen to fill.  If one of them does start there, then we've only really got one sub to cover both the striker and right hand side roles.

Not trying to be too negative, but it's looking a bit stretched already really and we're only a couple of games in.
