Over the past year we have lost from the squad Joel Ward, Eze, Guehi, Lacroix, and now Munoz, all members of what the press were calling 'Christian Palace'. (Even though Daniel did look a bit diabolical with that beard....) That only leaves the Club Chaplain, who's lost a lot of pace, and...

Totally agree. Red and blue stripes, quite broad, no white in between, MAYBE yellow collar and cuffs as a nod to the 1970 kit (but red or blue would do as well) - AND the modern badge which is the finest evolution of all the former ones with its Crystal Palace building, ribbon, and 1861 below...

I suppose he will point to the cartoon showing him wielding a pistol and threatening Gibbs-White - which I imagine he didn't really do. But can a cartoon qualify as defamation if accompanied by a disclaimer-style statement as the HF provided? We've seen how ludicrous Trump has been about suing...

In Millwall hell.

Ugh, what a bore. Not a huge fan of the sash kit anyway, but this one is somewhere between a 1985 Casio sports watch and a 1985 Fiesta XR2 with its silly stripes within stripes. I guess we can put up with this for a year, but after that can we please get back to solid red/blue verticals (with no...

Channel 4's documentary Inside The American Embassy showed Ambassador Johnson in action. It put me off buying J&J cotton buds....

Yes, and seeing Neville Southall sitting against his goalpost in too much of a huff to collect his loser's medal added a little bit of extra panache to the day!

I can see where you're coming from, but honestly, I think it's okay. He not cultish: he's a religious person. It's quite common around the world, not really that niche. But more to the point, look at the Palace players, current or recent, who are of the same persuasion: Marc G, Ebs, Maxine...

Agree with all of this. For a man who comes across as so measured and analytical, OG really looked frayed at the edges yesterday - rising hackles at a pretty sensible question from Vicky Sparks, trembling voice, suicide-note references to the board, etc. Not good. But I think we saw a case of...

Ouch. I think that's torn it, hasn't it? Pretty much civil war going on behind the scenes, and Glasner quite dangerously claiming the players to his cause. It's clear that he and Parish have different visions, and those are now diverging fast. It reminds me of a beefed-up version of the spat...

Well said.

I'm with you on this. The elation we all had at Wembley against Villa, then the clinging on and on against City, was born of our long-accepted identity as the underdog. So it was superb to beat that jinx twice in a row and for us to lift the Cup. Today was Macclesfield's go at a fraction of that...

I think he was really stumped by that ridiculous booking so soon after kick-off. It was a bit of nothing, but as rb, he couldn't throw himself into tackles for the rest of his time on the pitch.
