Match Thread | Crystal Palace vs. Man City FA Cup Final (17/05/25)

[Pedestrian]

I think we have to all look in the mirror and realise we ain't that special anymore and ain't a quick fix


Just shy of 200 million spent in Jan and not a single player on the pitch of that spunked money

Did you see the penalty?

 

[Twisted-wheel]

If he isn't confident himself, then it's better to give it to someone else. I've no problem with Haaland there.

Not on about the penalty at all, on about work rate and making his presence known on the pitch

Dangerous kicking

 

[normskih]

Everything about this season is absolutely fucking shit.

Well turn it around in the second half.


Fingers crossed:)

 

[BlueMonkey79]

I'm sick off the constant slow ,turgid side to side . It doesn't tire fucking anyone out .

Opposition love playing against us.

Cant remember who said it this season, but the player said, when City have the ball we rest.

sav having a stinker. Hojlund eat your heart out

He's wank.

 

[tornandfrayed]

He's going away from goal... like you have to be facing directly the goal to score with no keeper there?.. how do you round a keeper without going away for goal for about a second??

Because that's the direction Henderson's hand knocked it. If he hadn't touched it Haaland was going straight on goal. Shocking decision.

 

[Stoned Rose]

Has Alan Shearer got Parkinson's?

Joe Royle was on the other day looked a right state. Not sure if he’s ill?

 

[Tuearts right boot]

Has Alan Shearer got Parkinson's?

Know what you mean.......

 

[Micky Blue]

It's the bbc what do our expect, other side if the pitch it's a red

ITV both Joleon and Ian Wright were shocked it wasn’t a red.
Joleon called it the worst decision he’s ever seen in football.

 

[DTKOAG]

Our support has been wank
Get of the concourses and get behind the team.

Number 5 stopping from scoring apparently despite being literally behind him.

 

[YatesA]

Doku will always have moments just because he's so quick over a few yards

Savinho doesn't seem to offer much at all except getting tackled and there being a 50/50 chance it goes out for a corner

For sure, I have faith in doku creating something but he needs to be more direct and drive at any pockets of space inside, they won't dive in inside the box like we seen there. Savinho is soft as hell, doesn't want any contact whatsoever. Impossible to play in England with that mentality.

 

[PragueBlue]

Why didnt we even get a free kick for it...regardless of whatever interpritation there is of the incident surely it should be a free kick?

Not sure if VAR can give free kicks. I thought it was for offsides, penalties and red cards.

 

[noseve]

81% possession hard 2/3 good chances and a pen!

Possession stats just as meaningless as 'number of passes in the season' when the top 5 are always centre backs

 

[Eccles Blue]

Just had a text from a friend at the game saying what the heck was that?!
At least he sent a better video of our KDB banner than I got on the TV.

 

[citytill1die84]

Twatwell the twat who allowed the Rashford offside goal to stand argh

Fucking come on City

 

[TinFoilHat]

Fuck it,

Mystic TinFoilHat predicts Ortega red card and Scotty Carson wins us the cup with his penalty.

:)

 

[Plays By Sense Of Smell]

I'm honestly fucking seething. In a season of shit this is going to be the shittest of the lows if we don't get it together. Why the actual fuck is Haaland passing that on? He's supposed to be the best striker in the world, supposed to bleed confidence, had the chance to break his Wembley duck, and then passes it to a player who has never scored a single goal for us. Pathetic from him, and concerning. The sequence that led to their goal was better than anything we produced that half.

Pep needs to slap each and every one of them hard around the face.

He’ll use the injustice to galvanise for the second half…
‘We have to do it all ourselves…’

 

[wattle]

Other than the Henderson incident I think he's reffed it OK to be honest.
Let it flow and kept the cards out of it

The Henderson incident is nothing to do with atwell to be fair. It’s whichever incompetent **** in the VAR box
