Two magnificent goals from the Palace but our defence was in a particularly generous mood and gifted the Foxes a couple of 'tap ins' :D.....but all in all a fair result.

ObF :wave: ....You never said you was going...Next time you come to Selhurst Park leave the Flares at home there's a good boy....Horrible smokey things that don't 'arf pen and ink..


By the way you should be proud of your boys today, they were very good, committed and every one of them players gave 100%....A good competitive game...I really enjoyed it.

Great performances all over the pitch for Town today. We could have beaten a poor Millwall side by even more than 3 goals...though they did hit the crossbar. The chairman in a pre-match interview explained that the players signed since promotion have some serious pay-cuts coming if they get relegated due to the contracts signed. Wonder if that is concentrating some minds?

Thanks for the report Paul.
I listened to it on the computer and the build up to the match sounded fantastic. Judging by what I heard a draw was a fair result. Your defence sounded dodgy whilst we gave away too many silly free kicks and struggled to defend set ball pieces.
Well done to both teams.

CHAMPIONES CHAMPIONES OLE OLE OLE !!!!!!!!

We had a full house, party atmosphere and a great Wimbledon crowd as well. They bought 1300 down, so credit to them.

We are back on the road to the Championship

Watch out you guys. The Gills are on the way up.

Ditto for the magnificent Cherry's

Quite an achievement, considering they were at the foot of Division 1 early doors

Then Mr Howe came home

Congratulations to the Gills and to the Cherries. Fantastic achievement for the pair of them and happy days for their supporters. I must say Eddie Howe has done an amazing job at Bournemouth. It didn't work out for him at Burnley but has really turned Bournemouth's fortunes around since his arrival.

Wrong ... I dont give a shepherd's ar*e about those sheep and we DO need those three points :P

If we win then we will only be one point behind Hull and they will then be pooping themselves on Saturday with Barnsley playing for their lives ... oh yes ... and then comes their final game when our ex Manager Malky Mackay ensures his lads stuff the Tigers out of sight.

Now is that a grand plan for the Zolacoaster's promotion to the Prem or what ? :thumbup: :wave:

A Palace v Cherries match might take place next season, assuming the Palace are in the Championship, then the best place to get tickets would be from Bournemouth....That way it would guarantee you a ticket to sit with the Bournemouth lot and you wouldn't have to mix with the home crowd....that lot are riff raff.....I have never been a visiting supporter to Selhurst Park so ain't sure how much the tickets will be, but my guess is about £25.00 ('old farts' price)......Failing that I could always get the tickets for you...we could sort that out..no problem. :thumbup:

Can anyone help? :problem: ........As you know Leicester City were fortunate to leave Selhurst with a point yesterday......One of their goals was scored by king Wood......Does anybody know who scored their king other goal. :think:

Thank you.

Paul

You are a gent

I would really enjoy revisiting Saff London

Many good nights and days years ago on company business at our wee office at the Whitgift Centre, and it's collection of fine Pubs and eateries plus the magnificent Fairfields Hall

Sadly, never got to visit Selhurst Park

But - god willing - we are looking forward to have a long weekend to enjoy AFC Bournemouth versus your great team

Just watching Bayern Munich vs Barcelona. Can you believe Bayern are winning 4-0 and look good value for it too? I have never seen Barcelona looking so ineffectual and a mere shadow of the team which tore Man Utd apart a couple of seasons ago. Bayern Munich do look a very strong team indeed.

Having said that there have been a couple of dodgy goals, one possibly offside and the other a definite foul to take the defender out. It makes you wonder what the assistant referees are paid for when they don't spot something so obvious.

Thoroughly enjoyed watching that game, thought Bayern Munich were terrific, much prefer their style of play than I do Barcelona's, who I think we're played off the park tonight.
Yes a couple of dodgy goals, but thoroughly deserved the win, Bayern look a very strong team.

Didn't watch it......Well I started watching it, because there wasn't anything else on but got bored with it so looked at me 'catch up'.....Found a great game.

I watched Norwich City v Nottingham Forest in the 2nd Leg of the FA Youth Cup Semi-Final.....Norwich won 5-4 on penalties and will face either Chelsea or Liverpool in the final.....Chelsea are leading 2-0 in their tie after the first leg at Anfield...The second leg takes place on Friday..Live on ITV4 (I think.)

Shock, horror !!!!

The richest club in England just so happens to win the league (again)

By amazing coincidence, the second richest club will come second.

And yes, you've guessed it, the third richest club will probably come third :lol:

Anybody spot a pattern?

I tell you what, let's all have a wild stab at who will win it next season. ;)

The general idea of a competition is that it should be competative.

If only Manchester United had the sort of money to spend like Chelsea and Man City ...... but they haven't that kind of money - but they still won the league with four games to go and may even break another record if they win their remaining games and end up with a record total of points. All achievements in anyone's book. SAF has had to make do with the squad he has, which is all the more reason to applaud this record of 20 league titles. I am amazed at the number of ABUs there are. (Anyone but United). It's pathetic.

will do wonders for shirt sales and the club shop will do a roaring trade when they change the strip, AGAIN,sales in the Far east and for the 99.9% of "fans" that have never been to old Trafford, will be up as well

Win Win for the accountants and the Glaziers, wonder if they will ever pay off their debts or just use Man Utd as their own personal cash machine?? :yawn: :yawn:
