Come on; they were never going to stay up. Do you seriously think they would, even if they won that night. As for being in front of their own fans, that's not always an advantage. Look at Villa tonight. Pretty toxic atmosphere among those who haven't already pissed off. Not easy to perform in such an environment.

Results prove you are far, far more likely to hand out a thrashing to teams at home with zilch to play for. I can’t believe you’re even questioning this otherwise home advantage would mean nowt. I mean look at our results at home vs away record even under Pep. It makes a HUGE difference especially when the home team has all to play for and the away team has nothing.

But in the real world it’s not because the last player to touch the ball was the keeper. Remember the one they took off Kev ‘after’ he’d overtaken Henry?

Wasn’t sure if they taketh from Kev with one hand and give to Rat with the other

Palace will be in a final four days after this game. They will probably play full strength against us, then rest majority of first team players for Arsenal.

Disagree. Similar rotation to keep players fresh. Will be equally weakened sides for both games. Difference is a home game is farewell to the fans that season and do they want Arsenal celebrating a title at Selhurst. Ermm.. nope. Far more jeopardy than us vs Villa at ours imo mate.

You obviously missed my point. I said "not always an advantage". I never said it's never an advantage. Ask Spurs fans about home advantage. Burnley (ironically enough!) have, I believe, more home wins than them. Where's the HUGE (your capitals) been for them this season?
