surrifox Posted 24 April 2016 Posted 24 April 2016 Good luck Watford . (I feel slightly soiled saying that ) but detest CP
MC Prussian Posted 24 April 2016 Author Posted 24 April 2016 Bolasie header, 1-0 to the Palace. Poor, poor start by Watford. Lacking intensity and attacking desire already. I do hope they can turn it around, though.
Super_horns Posted 24 April 2016 Posted 24 April 2016 We did - for about 5 minutes but overall a poor show from us and an example of why some are getting a bit frustrated with Flores.
Matt Posted 20 May 2016 Posted 20 May 2016 Manchester United will not be holding an open top bus parade if they win Saturday's FA Cup final, according to Sky sources. The Reds face Crystal Palace at Wembley in what will be a repeat of the 1990 final but the club has decided not to hold a procession should they lift the trophy this weekend Many of their players will be leaving to join national squads ahead of the forthcoming Euro 2016 finals - although United's England contingent are due to join up with the rest of Roy Hodgson's squad on Monday United held a parade three years ago when they won the Premier League title during Sir Alex Ferguson's final season as manager. If Palace win on Saturday, the Eagles will hold a bus parade on Sunday starting in Croydon Town Centre at 1.30pm. Abit arrogant imo, to me it says "We're too big to celebrate a minor FA Cup win". Even heard one Man Utd fan say "We're not arrogant, we're just not Arsenal". Now I hate Arsenal (if you didn't know) but that comment is arrogant in itself. I'd be pissed off if we won the FA Cup but didn't do as victory parade.

It's subjective, as a fan base they've been incredibly spoiled by the years under SAF so it's probably not particularly special for many of them. For us it obviously would be incredibly special because we've never won it.

Whilst like you say League One would be an incredible achievement (And I loved that season, wouldn't have wanted to have been there any longer than 1 season, but the season still goes down as one of my favourite - It's been overshadowed massively after this one obviously, but it's one of my favourites, still) it is more 'localised' if that makes sense? I guess it just shows what the FA Cup means to people nowadays.
Nalis Posted 20 May 2016 Posted 20 May 2016 As far as football songs go this one's actually alright. Not as a chant though.
Matt Posted 21 May 2016 Posted 21 May 2016 Stupid that this is a 5.30 KO. Should be a 3pm! Can't even blame Sky, this is a BBC request I presume. (Or BT Sport, Probably BT Sport actually)
ozleicester Posted 21 May 2016 Posted 21 May 2016 Bollocks to a 2am kick off time, fvck you, whoever makes these decisions
RowlattsFox Posted 21 May 2016 Posted 21 May 2016 No reason for it to be a later kick off. There are no other games in this country.
Wymsey Posted 21 May 2016 Posted 21 May 2016 No reason for it to be a later kick off. There are no other games in this country. There were a few football shows on BBC One from 11:00 until 14:30. Would've fitted in better if they swapped the Question of Sport programme (which was a 14:30 start) with the Final and kick-off 15:15/15:30.
z-layrex Posted 21 May 2016 Posted 21 May 2016 Zaha injured? Crying on side of pitch my Palace friends are saying.
promised land Posted 21 May 2016 Posted 21 May 2016 BBC just said Fellaini is back from suspension, no he isn't, the FA cup isn't part of his 3 game ban.
foxes161 Posted 21 May 2016 Posted 21 May 2016 why is it 5.30pm thought it was always 3pm or was that because it was on a sunday
m4DD0gg Posted 21 May 2016 Posted 21 May 2016 What's happened to Ruud Gullet? He been dining out with Michael Owen?!
Corky Posted 21 May 2016 Posted 21 May 2016 What the heck? Just put the game on. There was a time when the authorities actually thought people went to watch the match.
adam Posted 21 May 2016 Posted 21 May 2016 This is pathetic. Get this **** off and get the band on. TRADITION!!
