Clyne at RWB as the Munoz replacement is utterly pathetic. Squads not fit for purpose.

If there is one January window where we need incomings lined up as soon as the window opens, it’s this one coming up. We could be in the mix for playing in the Champions League next season given how tight the league currently is. If there was ever a time to have a go…it’s now.

This isn’t going to be sustainable in next 6-8 weeks. Our second half drop offs are becoming alarming & worryingly consistent. Got absolutely nothing going forward after 60 minutes. Win is a win but we don’t hold on that lead against majority of sides in PL.

Oliver Glasner would have realised by now that the Crystal Palace hierarchy sells a project of dreams, only for those supposed ambitions to remain a fantasy.

The best manager in the club’s history deserves better. Column on Glasner and the future. #CPFC

Oliver Glasner is our greatest ever manager. He won us the FA Cup. For Parish & the other owners to provide him with a squad not fit for purpose is inexcusable. We had a real opportunity this season. But we decided to just hope for the best with minimal investment.

We are so wasteful in front of goal. Should be out of sight.

Despite the result, that was hands down one of the coolest experiences I’ve ever had supporting Palace.

Amazing being in another country watching my team play in Europe. Hopefully more trips to come in 2026…

Currently on the train from Stuttgart to Strasbourg.

Buzzing to arrive in next 30 minutes!

Strasbourg away ole ole ole…via Stuttgart!

Palace away in Europe…a 30 plus year dream in the making.

A solid win. Not at our best by any means but still had ample enough to beat a very poor Wolves side. Nketieh a real positive off the bench. Really hope he can stay fit & get a run now. Delighted for Pino. Wonderful strike. Onto Strasbourg 🔜

All out for 172 on day one. Great start boys 🤦‍♂️

Great point given the circumstances. We’ve put a lot in the past week. We looked very tired in the final 30 minutes. Canvot outstanding in Guehi’s place. MOTM for me. What a player he is going to be. Mitchell & Lerma also excellent.

Genuinely one of the most enjoyable nights I’ve had at Selhurst. Proper European night. AZ Fans outstanding. And we had the kind of energy on the pitch & in the stands that was missing vs. Larnaca. Palace arrived in Europe last night. Roll on Strasbourg. UTP ❤️💙

If anyone has north of 11k points but isn’t going to Strasbourg for any reason and is happy for me to use their reference to purchase a ticket, it would be greatly appreciated 👍

We should have killed that off when we had the chance. Mateta miss changed the game. It rejuvenated them. Last 30 minutes we looked shattered. Oh well.

Absurd pricing from Palace for the three home Conference League games.
September 30, 2025 at 7:44 PM
These are the greatest of times to be a Crystal Palace supporter. We’ve dreamt of a spell like this & long may it continue.
September 27, 2025 at 7:27 PM
Think we probably did enough to win today but just lacked that bit of quality in the final third. But it’s hardly surprising when the different front three combinations we used today were all completely new. It will come as Pino & Uche settle into the system. Still unbeaten 🙌

The meltdown has started.

My word it’s going to be toxic next Saturday towards the directors box.

Selling Marc Guehi today will for me reaffirm why a change in ownership/leadership is needed at the football club. This summer has been a shambles off the pitch. Selling your captain & most important player on deadline with no adequate replacement in place would be utter negligence. Can’t happen.
September 1, 2025 at 6:26 AM
This manager.
This team.
Please. Please. Please Steve.
Do the right thing tomorrow.
Don’t sell Marc & get 2/3 more in.
August 31, 2025 at 8:05 PM
I will reserve judgement until 7pm Monday but Steve Parish will deserve all the criticism coming his way if we don’t add a bare minimum 3 new players in next 48 hours (that’s not including Canvot).
August 30, 2025 at 4:42 PM
I’m actually convinced now if these two things happen, Glasner resigns next Friday:

1) We sell Marc Guehi before Thursdays second leg

2) We then go onto lose the second leg & get knocked out

It will tip him over the edge.
