Feel as though that can mean all guns blazing but equally could leave them vulnerable. I’m expecting it but would still be somewhat surprised to see them play conservatively given their next two fixtures.

I’m any circumstance I hope we can capitalise upon whatever their plan is. Conceding an early goal like we did against wolves could be disastrous and Groundhog Day.

Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

Glass half full is optimistic, half empty is pessimistic.

After W.Ham play us, their fixtures are as follows :

A - Man C
H - Man Utd
A - Brentford
H - Leeds
A - Leicester

Norwood and Thornton Heath will be surprisingly empty. Those mockney Danny Dyer wannabe's will probably congregate at London Bridge, a safer environment for them to strut around in their weekend flat caps, before arriving en-masse at Norwood Junction 15 minutes before kick-off. Where they can stride manfully down the now empty streets to Selhurst, giving it large to grannies on the pavement and the odd cat who they happen upon.
Once surrounded by stewards in the safe environment of the stadium, they will be giving it maximum large to the family stand.
The only outcome for sure is a bit of twouble, once things go wrong for them on the football pitch.

I disengage, I turn the page.
