Crystal Palace vs. Nottingham Forest match thread

Very poor atmosphere tonight and lots of empty seats, the club should note these empty seats and ask why they are not being used.How do we generate such good support at Wembley? but our home support is definitely not what it used to be.

They dont need to ask they just need to stop playing on Monday nights

It’s a bank holiday, Monday night, games is on tv and it’s a dead rubber really.

I can’t see too many empty seats here must say, plus the game reflects the lack of importance hingeing on this match.

Not making excuses but I’d suggest there are reasons.

It's big enough for Forest though isn't it? We don't look like we believe the league is going to get us Europe. But they don't look any better than us really. I suspect the stronger words will be in their dressing room. I wouldn't be too upset with a clean sheet.

The atmosphere tonight is relatively flat. Usual crowd trying to get everyone going, but it’s rather dull at the moment.

Not sure what viewing is like on SKY, but our team are struggling at the moment. Sarr, Kamada and Wharton playing well - but others quite poor. We need a spark, because if Forest score, you can see them just shutting shop.

We are playing like a team who have a cup final in two weeks.

Personally, I don't want to see anyone busting a gut.
 
With both teams playing the same shape and the same sort of style, it was always going to be a tight, stop start sort of game. Mateta being well marshalled by their two bruisers in the centre. He needs to come deeper to allow Sarr a chance to get behind. Sarr has been our biggest threat so far. Le Croix really is a Rolls Royce of a centre half, fantastic signing and is getting better and better (probably kiss of death now). I think its down to who ever blinks first, they need 3 points so might push it second half which could play into our hands.
 
I think they are stood off us when we get the ball, and Munoz is being kept back at times because of the concern with Elanga. When we hi a longer ball we MUST be there to pick up the second ball, and we aren't. I don't think Wharton is getting on the ball enough, neither is Eze, and Kamada might seem good for not losing the ball but he's also not really been effective with it either, preferring to pass back out rather than position turn and go.
 
Ha ha Carragher can't even do keepyuppies in the studio, whilst the other fella, not an ex pro, does do them whilst talking through the mic.

Nice one "Carra"

I thought Forest were chasing top 5, hardly a dead rubber.
 
I was bored at half time feeling sorry for myself. Thought I’d search for news on any new kits. Found this ‘concept’ away kit for next season. Thought I would share IMG_1014.webp
