With all the "Liverpool are going to choke" news going thru the media over the past few weeks and the scenes of indignation and surprise of various presenters when faced with Man Utd fans who'd happily see their team lose if it meant Liverpool not winning the Prem title, another question arises, much closer to home.

Following our win at Newcastle and our almost safety, if it came to us playing Cardiff in our penultimate game and in the event of a Cardiff win, they stayed up, relegating Brighton, which one of us would be on the pitch first to score the own goal? Seriously - would you take a Palace defeat, knowing we were safe no matter what if it meant that result sent the Seagulls down?

Clearly a history lesson required

I have no doubt Brighton would roll over if it meant us going down. Just like Pompy did a few years back so the Saints went.
I'd be indifferent I think. Would see it as a win win. If we won I'd be glad the team showed integrity. If we lost I'd try not to look too hard at the performance and be bouyed by the Seaweed's demise.

I'd much rather play them occassionally in the cups than have them in the same league as us anyway. Despite their lovely new stadium I still consider them a smaller club than us. They are at the moment at the absolute peak of their potential whereas we are above them and even non Palace fans that know football agree we are underperforming.

Although 'rivals' I don't consider them a threat and despite the results not going our way this season would regard them as a shoe in as one of the 3 weaker teams needed each season to keep us up

They could of course creep up behind us if we are caught with our pants down but in general would like to keep them where we can see them and thats in or around the bottom .

Chuck the game, no questions asked, but instead of a performance similar to Watford away or spurs away we’ll probably really go for it like we do when the season is winding down, only Cardiff won’t be in a Leicester type position, who we’ve played twice with their minds on holiday.

Would love us to roll over if it meant Cardiff leapfrogging Brighton. I don't believe it would happen though as players and management too professional. League position & money are at stake.
