Yeah point taken, except that we did get a point today, yet you don't seem to get any at all do you! :laughing6:


Not against Spurs away, no. Never expected to. You didn't get any there either, did you? :laughing6:

As I said ;)


As I said to one win in seven


And seven being the lucky number nobby. Seven points behind us and on your form it would take you seven games to make that up! :laughing6:

Edit: It's more than that actually! ;)

But dont make out it was a one sided game as in the first half u were boring and shit and played every player behind the half way line.
Off course we going to pass it about to try and open u up.
Bony some how got his foot to the ball that made your keeper make a great save so im not sure whst game u was watching.
Second hslf u had to come out and have a go as u had nothing to lose and we were out on our feet.
Like I said a game of 2halfs and a draw a fair result


I aint haha im just saying the first half agreed we was bad but the fact you could only create 2 chances for all that possession says a lot about your style of football. Second half we dominated and created a lot more then you did. Did the game not finish 50 50 in terms of possession.



To be fair, you could see Swansea were knackered 2nd half. 5 games of high intensity in 2 weeks caught up with them. Williams and Bony went off ill as there is a stomach bug in the squad. Williams was retching on 60 mins. You could see it though as our passing was nowhere as near as slick as the 1st half and we struggled with 2nd balls. If we had played the 2nd half like the first I am convinced it would have been comfortable, possibly 2-0.

2 wins and 3 draws will see us safe this year.

^^ bit more than 50/50 mate :lol:

So to summarise Swansea had twice has much possession yet Palace scored just as many goals and created just as many chances.

Sensational that.

Or the true summary of.... Swansea were completely and utterly dominant in the first half displaying sensational football and were deservedly ahead.

The second half was a different story as the effects of Bony, Williams and Hernandez being forced off took its toll. We also were down to 10 mean and they equalised through a wrongly given penalty.

We are now 5 points clear of the relegation zone (including GD) :thumbup:

Dont think you are to be counted out just yet.

Palace on the otherhand, ironically win their game in hand and they go above you.

All in all youve looked very silly with this thread counting your chickens at half time.

where have i counted my chickens? I said we were completely dominant at half time and we were. I was spot on.

The reaction to the second half not being the same as the first half (even though nobody said it would be) smacks of frustrations with your own team. I dont see what else it can be.

Such a dominant first half that Palace had more shots on goal in the 2nd half that Swansea did in this sensational first half :laughing5:

Dont see what options he had in fairness, we dont have a replacement for Bony. There is no way Marvin Emnes can lead the line on his own with 4 or 5 Palace defenders to contend with.

At the end of the day the goal we conceded was an incorrect penalty decision. First half was terrific, second half we were clearly depleted with arguably the most key defender, midfielder and attacker taken off injured or sick.

Nice honest opinion. In fairness to the jacks I can't believe monk played 7 or 8 of team that played v Napoli ( think that's correct?). Really naive management if true given the performance on Thursday.

Got to laugh at roathie on here. Came on at half time trying to give it big one assuming that the 3 points were in the bag yet he has spent 3 hours on here trying to justify that he was talking about the first half. Games are won or lost at 90 minutes. Half time means nothing.

Doesn't matter if ref got it wrong. Pen was given and scored. We played spurs at home in September and loris should have been sent off after 6 minutes. He wasn't and spurs won the game. If ref today had given free kick on edge of box palace may have scored. Equally free kick could have been cleared and Leroy lita may have scored 2nd. All ifs and buts and the fact is refs in prem are awful but Swansea conceded pen palace scored and points were shared. I suggest you go off to bed and leave the dingo alone. Can't imagine the Aussie RSPCA would take too kindly to west walian molesting a native creature.
