Really? 1. That lot trounced Citeh 4 - 0 last week. Same XI. It's the same every well most weeks regardless of circumstances we are goosed this season without the cushion & run-in. Improvements which don't reflect on results means nothing really at the end of the day. It's just a dismal recurrent theme.

We have spent big this season on recognised premiership players. People blame managers, and they do deserve a level of criticism, but in reality these incoming players just weren't worth their level of fees.

Apparently Palace playing home games like the away side is the mentality this manager is pushing. Pardew's sides competed and they weren't in the bottom three. We had the worst record of all 92 clubs in calendar 2016 under Pardew, and you say we competed ! Joking right ...

Benteke's inability to win his fair share of aerial balls is amazing. However, it must be disheartening for him to know that even if he does win the header, there is nobody with the intelligence to read the ball and play off him. The majority of times Lukaku got the ball with his back to goal there was a player 5 feet away from him that he could lay the ball off to. We are still not doing the basics.

Really? Never heard this before. My mistake not the croosbar but the changing rooms. On 26 July 1932,[3] Callender committed suicide at the club ground, following the death of his fiancée[1] from polio.[2] He was found hanged in the team dressing room after training.[1][2]

Spot on really changing managers hasn't changed our fortunes a jot it's fair to conclude on that basis that the common denominator must be the players underachieving massively collectively.

Pardew was also responsible for the very good start to that season....So are you going to praise him for that? Pardew kept us in the Premiership and played attacking football that kept people coming and believing. Big Sam is a backward step for this club....We now play like...what reminds me of a FA cup match where a championship side try to play direct against premiership clubs hoping to nick a goal in a one nil. This is very much a backward step.
