As I've mentioned before, who wants to go and watch the other side's players have 65% of the ball? Surely one wants to see one's own team on the ball, knocking it about confidently, creating chances? With Royball one goes to watch the other side.
Something for Steve Parish to ponder when he's trying to fill seats in his shiny new stadium.

Home matches haven't been that exciting currently. Prices are expensive now too - when I used to think Palace were pretty reasonable. The Liverpool game and the blatant cheating took a lot out of me. Add that to the rubbish we play in general and this is what you get. When we do go ahead no one is confident with the way things are going. You can see it on the players' faces as well as the crowd's.

Red and Blue Army!

Yes, this it the crux of the matter. But when it has been admitted that Hodgson doesn't coach forward play and therefore doesn't really know how to create goal scoring opportunities, one can look upon his career with extra understanding. He's a one trick pony and his time is up.

Well, our players knock it about fairly confidently, but normally within about 25 yards of our own goal - and as often as not about 10 seconds after being in a vaguely attacking position.

It also doesn’t help when there’s an unhealthy obsession by some to sing songs aimed at Lewis Dunk for the bast part of 90 minutes rather than singing positive Palace songs!
