It was about 5 seasons ago when we lost 3-2 at Burnley.
I think Wickham scored not long after coming on from the bench.

The game stands out because I was in a hissy fit about the late Burnley winner after we came back from 2-0 down to draw level.Mandanda was in goal for us that day.

I have no idea if both Wickham and Benteke have been on the scoresheet for us in another game.

Who knows...this could be the time. A few games this season, a solid pre-season and he could be the answer for us next season. Probably get injured again...but there's always hope.

I would love to see him back playing for us on a regular basis ,remember hie was playing England under 20s when we brought him.

 


Zaha has some green grass in front of him here. Finds Ambrose
not a bad effort ooooooooooh! what a goal by Darren Ambrose absolutely stunning strike!!! And, Crystal Palace lead @ Old Trafford.

I suspect there could well be a few dissenting voices on HOL if Wickham is offered a new contract and decides to stay.

I've heard of gallows humour, this is more like guillotine optimism

Fair play for remembering this. I wasn't at that game, and had forgotten about the scorers.
But it wasn't this game, more recent.

If you have forgotten what Connor look like he is starting now in the U23 game against Sunderland.It will cost you £3 for the privilege via Palace TV

Does he still look like a body builder? All he needs is a massive dose of something to keep him fit.

Lord above you are clutching at straws now. He passed the ball 6 yards in a straight line to a team mate on the side line who then scored an absolute cracker. If that is as good as it gets for his Palace career then we have unbelievably low standards.

You've made his point for him!! We should build a statue for the fella right now.

(Maybe one where he is lying down holding his hamstring in one hand and his wallet in another).

 


So I manage a Workshop which provides a safe learning environment for blokes struggling with PTSD and other mental health issues. Being a Palace fan isn't listed yet.

I am considering the human element apropos Connor Wickham, a footballer who keeps being thwarted by injury after injury and it really must be so frustrating for the poor chap.

A talented footballer when fully fit but he simply has not been able to showcase his abilities in recent seasons.
One can point to his remuneration but in the final analysis he is a professional footballer with a desire to play on a regular basis and not spend hour on hour on the treatment table.

Didn't Townsend hit the post right at the end as well, if I remember rightly?

Indeed he did.
Late goal for Burnley to win 3-2, I was incandescent with rage.
I believe this was Mandanda's last game for us.

Fella didn't ever have a particularly good scoring record and was never a particularly good player. I mean what has he got like 11 goals in 5 or 6 years?

Absolutely clutching at straws if you think he will ever come good. He has had bad injury's that have slowed him down.

I could understand if he had been banging them in all over the shop for years but that's not the case...Show him the exit door.
