One caveat. The more success you enjoy, the greater the sense of entitlement. Let the growth of the club be organic and gradual.

A club our size is only a bit of bad luck or a run of injuries away from the bottom three. Makes it all the more interesting.
It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses. |

I couldn't believe that he had no respect for a hard earnt point, and to p!ss it away thinking 'we can nick this one' was so indicative of his inflated ego.

We are NOT Like Sunderland at all. The talent we have should be a top 10 team. The reason we were down there was total mis-management by Pardew!!! Should be? Really? It is achievable with our first 11-15 players but to say we should be top ten is the type of attitude that got us into a relegation battle again this year.

Cue complaints about dull 0-0 draws. Short memories. I personally think we've been much more exciting under big Sam than under Pardew or Pulis. West Ham were more exciting to watch under him as well. Surely we've had enough excitement.

Wet Sham were doing well under Big Sam until the fans got stupid and wanted him out. Morons! I can still see Bilic taking them down next season.

On paper we have a cracking first team, good enough for the top 10. However, we shouldn't get carried away. Injuries have already proven that we need greater strength in depth. The reality is that everybody outside the top 6 plus Everton goes into a season with the chance if being relegated, even Stoke and Southampton. A bad run or injuries can put even them down with the strugglers, neither of them were that far away this year. The other problem is that we are Palace. Rarely are things boring. What's the chances of losing Cabaye, Zaha and possibly even Benteke in the summer? What happens if Allardyce is tempted by another offer? The one thing that being a Palace fan for 45 years or so has made me realise is that it's never going to go as you think. Expect another flirt with relegation, or if things go well a unexpected season where we are gunning for a European place. Mid table safety is just not Palace.
