Whilst I am delighted with the 3 points, I didn’t count this match as much proof before and don’t to an extent after. It proves there’s still effort and care in what they’re doing. We still need to not play 3 def mids, play with a bit of width and don’t wait for the opposition to get all set up when the oppo are vulnerable when we’re playing at home or any team outside of the top 6. Great effort by Roy and the team though. I did my bit by not watching because we usually do well vs the top 6 when I don’t watch. Glad to see Benteke benched and Ayew given a crack, who I’ve felt is dangerous with open spaces around him. I’m interested in this impressive hold up play because it’s been regularly shyte up till now. Well done lads. Equal possession instead of 20% vs villa next to prepare for. Different game. Anyone ready to jump down my throat. Roy has just said on radio 5, ‘Colchester and Villa will be completely different and they’ll be looking to do some of what we’ve done to Man Utd and it will require a different skill set to today.’ Edited by Rudi Hedman (24 Aug 2019 5.33pm) Edited by Rudi Hedman (24 Aug 2019 5.33pm)

I was waiting for a thread like this. There are way too many emotions when we get a bad result, sure it is frustrating and it certainly ruins my weekend. We are Palace competing against teams/clubs that are in the most vastly superior to ours in terms of finance, infrastructure and history. I think we are doing unbelievably well to be in our 7th season in the premier league, i for one am still enjoying this brilliant period in the clubs history. Just watch the play off final and see the team that played that day compared to the one we have now. Granted Roy can set up quite defensively but this is what he has to work with, I would rather this than chase the dream and end up like Leeds, Portsmouth or Bury (delighted they survived by the way). I have supported Palace for nearly 40 years and am a very proud supporter.

This thread should not have been started. Apart from the 'one swallow does not' cliche, it still does not excuse the travesty last week. We should be allowed to enjoy this amazing performance and result without the 'told you so' merchants.

Whilst I agree, it would also nice to not get, we’re crap , we’re going down, the managers rubbish etc etc after every time we lose.

Nah, enjoy it whilst it lasts, when we go a goal up, we don;t forego celebrating in case the opposition scores. Brighton fans are hilarious though. Referring to Southampton as "no points Southampton", they thought the points were in the bag today. Funny old game.

Today what I saw was the desire to do well, that for me is paramount and if that continues we will be fine.
