FA Cup 3rd Round Macclesfield

[Eaglecoops]

We took a chance and played reserve and young players always a risk. Should have started with the experienced players and then substituted them. WE are not the first and will not be the last to suffer this way.

I agree and yet some bright spark on here keeps preaching tactics have no bearing on matches.

Show some respect to the opposition, get your best team out there, get 2-0 up and then put the youngsters on if you want to rest players. Made exactly the same mistake in the Conference League which means we are now having to play a play off in order to progress.

You reckon? Bannockburn was over 700 years ago and the locals round here mention it with depressing regularity.

I'm half Scottish. I'd forgotten about it, but thanks for reminding me.

"Biggest shock in FA Cup history" - not if you're a Palace fan it's not. I'm pretty sure many of us suspected a result like this.

I have been "living the dream" since last Easter, I guess I can now come back to earth and get on with the mundane aspects of life again! I cannot imagine how most fans are feeling right now ......

I thought we might nick it. I didn't think we'd dominate.

Ideas:

They wanted to lose, were instructed to lose, but had to make it look like Macclesfield were plucky opposition who were just too good on the day.

Glasner is an arrogant mug who has had his moment and whose one party trick doesn't work any more.

It's a conspiracy - we were allowed to win the FA Cup last season.

When I saw the line-up I suspected that it would be a long hard day. Congratulations to Macclesfield, fully deserved.
There's nothing this set of players and manager can say to excuse this performance.

Glasner is an arrogant mug ?!?!

Ridiculous comment, I'll put it down to emotions running high after that performance

Wall,Charlton,gulls won't let us forget this

Child.

Would you too like some hand bags to fight with

No Wembley this year now 😭

Well was there three times last year - don’t be greedy! Sense last year was out pinnacle -back to reality - SNAFU !

 

[ASCPFC]

Is this the kick up the arse we need? Or is it the second last nail in our coffin?
We can still get knocked out of the conference league soon enough.

Feeling like the siren call of two bottles of Jim Beam in the cupboard must be resisted or all hell could break out.

They don't when you play a team at this level so run along and go educate yourself.

This was the players at fault it had been proven when he even replaced people and they still did f all.

but in your mind tactics no matter the players will trump anything yeah ok.

Conference level teams are nothing like this team like I said before you have 0 clue what you are talking about.

Use your brain just take a look at the lacking bench that is a big issue yet people still keep ignoring the manager has not been backed and next look at the performance that is all on the players.

 

[Sportyteacher]

Palace looked too casual and leggy that will be partly due to lack of squad depth (how many times have we mentioned insubstantial transfer window activity?) and perhaps the change of pitch surface that they are used to within The Premiership? (how the ball bobbled... but then that it is all part and package of the preparation)

What saddens the most is that Palace is not a team of egos or 'prawn sandwich' influencing fan brigade but a solid family values club on vastly reserved resources compared to the giants of The Premiership. We are still very much a 'building' club and whilst there are bumps in the road...and today is a massive one...it is how ALL choose to regroup as opposed to any walking away to an easier, more profitable option.

I refuse to believe that this is Glasner's fault. The Premiership is by far and away the most important priority with injuries having cost us dearly (and I still maintain losing one of our very best players to AfCon ...who will be devastated by what he returns to) On reflection, the exit from The FA will at least give our small team much needed rest with every game to come effectively the equivalent of a Cup Game to bounce back.

Bye bye glasner

You want him gone for some reason season not over its the fa cup its meant to happen, get over it

 

[viapalace]

Not sure how we will learn to live this down. That’s me done with palace games for the season unless we somehow crawl our way to a conference league semi final.

More like the sign of things to come

 

[ASCPFC]

When's the draw for the next round?

 

[cryrst]

Parish's face there! Not sure what's going on with Guehi with Palace fans .
Would love to be a fly on the wall in our dressing room .

it would be laughing at them. 😁
What a totally inept and shockingly bad game from OG and all the players. Just turning up expecting to win clearly.

OG is not arrogant. In fact he always comes across as down to earth and pretty humble. However, I’d now like to hear a damn bit less about what he wants in the transfer market and lot more about what he’s going to do to sort out our appalling form and the fact we’ve been completely worked out tactically
