Seriously who does this guy think he is and has he actually seen any of our other games this season? Would love to poke him in the eye

Yh I saw this when the Metro tweeted it.. On his profile says "Journalist" - really he's a 2-bob blogger. I have always thought Saints fans were very "up their own ...." but this seals it for me. Totally misinformed. Move on - poor wannabe writer that wouldn't have his writing posted in any paid for paper

It's crazy how a simple blogger can get a column on a national newspaper's website.
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. - John Bostock (Nov 2007) |

I don't like it but I have to say there's a few home truths in his article. As a Palace fan, it was a long way from a performance I could be proud of.

"Surprised that more people haven't been talking about them going down." Er, we've been prime relegation candidates since the minute we got promoted! 2-bob blogger is spot on.

What he wrote was about right. It's just the headline (which he probably didn't write) which is insulting.

tbh its slightly biased as he has completely confessed, he's a southampton fan, a blogger and not a journo. What has he actually written there that's wrong? Nothing at all, it's just that no-one on here wants to hear the truth from a non Palace point of view thats all. We had one shot on target against a not very special team. we avaerage 30% possession on a good day and i'm sure half of that is picking the ball out of the net as well.

Has he not wrote what we have a been writing over the last couple of days? Again because he didn't write a pro Palace piece he's 2 bob
The ups and downs of Palace have left me older than my years |

Apart from the headline, I'm not sure he was far off the mark on the evidence of our performance on Saturday. If we take off our collective rose coloured spectacles we surely cannot argue that we were anything but awful against Southampton. We never looked like scoring and were completely lacking in any creative or imaginative play. Saints fans can only judge us on what they saw and you cannot blame them for going away with a pretty low estimation of us. We are all probably guilty of making similar generalised judgements about teams that visit us at Selhurst. But that's the nature of being a supporter - you don't bother that much about the finer details of the performances of your rivals, unless they are playing your team.

Tough to read, but hard to disagree with some points. Don't forget that his opinion comes from watching the 90 minutes last Saturday, not from seeing us play every week.
