In the cold light of day.

Pulis Tactically inempt
Pugh Could'nt tackle a fairy
Griffin Past it
Riggot OK but not a commanding centre half
Cort Poor defender
Whelan Not involved enough
Delap Probably our best player at the moment
Cresswell Not a winger
Amoebi Expensive Donkey
Sidibe 1 goal this season
Pearson Gets knocked off the ball
Nash Why did'nt he come for the header, it was in the 6 yard box.


Bring in Dickinson and Wilkinson as full backs, bring back Shawcross,start with Fuller and Lawrence if he's fit.

DO WE WANT IT, SHOW SOME BOTTLE

Cant fault Nasher for the goal, he was totally exposed he has to cover his near post and once the cross went over, a good header was going to give him little chance.

Having watched the game twice now I wonder if I watched the same game as the majority of the moaners!

Admittedly the first half was not, from our perspective, as good as the second, however in the game I watched Stoke were not as bad as most of you are making out. I think Palace need to be given a bit of credit for, in patches, playing really well. Both their goals came from a combination of skill on the part of individual Palace players & poor defending by our whole team. Where was the support for Pugh for the first goal? We know Sinclair is a skillful player & would be a threat & how come Soares had a free header? ???

Despite being gutted by the result, I thought the game itself was not as bad as most of you are making out. You seem to be letting your anger & disappointment at the result cloud your judgment.

kavinoz: I don't care about how well or how badly we played, how lucky or unlucky we were. We lost! Results matter, 'aard work' doesn't. Pulis' team selection didn't help.

'Kavinoz' It is not anger and disappointment, it is just so frustrating, knowing we can murder any team, but we should start games the way we started the second half. We seem to want a mountain to climb every time, give the opposition ahead start.
I have already posted a thread, saying we will still be in the Championship next season, WE will, if we start games in the same way as last night.
