Cardiff 2-3 Palace

Honestly, I would have been okay if we'd lost 14-0 if it gave Brighton a better chance of going down.  But as it is, another away win and mid-table respectability.  Not bad.  Glad that there were some truly bad teams in the Premier League this year.  My conclusion is that Palace are a solid team and no pushovers to anyone - good at counter-attacking, but still lack a decent and reliable striker.  And need to be a better home team more deserving for one of the better home atmospheres.  But sorry Cardiff, sorry Huddersfield, sorry Fulham - you all sucked and you all deserved to go down.

  1. Fair assessment - we are worthy of 11th - 13th place (which is where we'll finish).

    Needed the win to guarantee 13th - every place is worth approx. £2M.

    Yeah, unfortunately it helps the miserable seaweed - but we gotta take care of our shit.

  2. Next year will be tough.

    We could lose Wilf, Aaron & Mamadou (3 of our 4 best players - Luka won't leave).

    Rumour is Roy will retire (can't blame him, he's earned it).

    Yanks want out.

    Our accounts aren't great.

    Parish sees the rebuilding of the Main Stand (which is one of the few Archibald Leach stands still in use) as his legacy. Work is supposed to start this summer - but it'll mean no £££ to replace the leavers.

    Pessimistic !!!
