Jedinak goal.

 

It was my dream to play for Palace and to make my debut. I've always played for the club so if I'm playing here, I wouldn't want to be anywhere else.

Great report, please don't stop even if I can watch all games live on thai tv. Only disappointing player at Upton Park was Joe Ledley, not up to his usual standard. But hey, we are Palace, aren't we?

Same as Thai-Eagle. Watch every game but to get a Palace fan or fans report(s) from having been at the game is something i always like to read - especially when we win.

Do not miss much about living in England but several Sunday papers, a coffee and sitting out in Hyde Park or curled up on the sofa reading about our game and looking at the league table is something I do really miss.

I was sitting amongst the WHU fans and can testify how fantastic the Palace support was and how it riled the Wet Spam unfaithful.

I was honestly surprised how much coarse anger and venom was generated by individuals and how little collective support there was.

They spent the early part of the game insulting everything CPFC (one moron even took issue with Tony Pulis' white trainers?!!!) but then amazingly, they turned on themselves.

By the end of the game, those who remained were truly cannibalistic neanderthals. Sad to see and horrible to experience - can't wait to get back to Selhurst!!!!

The only thing that I didn't enjoy yesterday were the group of Palace fans walking past a mosque near the ground, chanting bombing-related songs. What made it even more crazy was the fact that they then met up with an Asian mate. Dicks.

Good to read OP's report, my first visit to West Ham, right behind the goal and low down, really different experience and made me more aware of individual players personalities, Bolassie is just wonderful, not only for his massively improved form over this year but he plays with a smile, in contrast to Jerome who despite his improvement and goals plays with a scowl, curious, maybe just adrenalin.
It was great to see up close the defense in action and the way they dealt with Carrol another player who scowls and grumps his way to nothing that day. Seemed to reflect the crowd, silent for so much of the game, expected more from West Ham supporters.
What a magnificent team we have and a privilege to see them on the day they took us to safety. Looking forward to the final games, amazing, who would have thought we would be 11th at this or any other stage, and six points clear of the next team West Ham.

What makes it all the sweeter for me is bloke opposite me at work is west ham and he gives it the large one about how we're in a relegation battle and they are a mid table club, they have much more history than us and his ridiculous 'field of dreams' opinions about the new stadium.

I now have bragging rights ALL summer and there is money involved based on who finishes higher...

To the foreign lads - cheers for the comments - I'll try and post some more BFTG especially when we're away, and if I don't I'm sure someone else will.

After Fulham I will be very drunk so will likely speak even more cobblers than usual

 

You'll be forever in my family's memories and it was an honor and privilege to play and lead in the red and blue
Yours sincerely
Mile Jedinak

Last time we were at West Ham 2 seasons ago we had the Samosagate thread. I can't take all this optimism.

Always one isn't there? Or a few in this case.
