Very tough game..my nerves will be shredded..come on you boys in blue Manchester's blue and white. Unlucky West Ham yesterday. Cam on Chelsea.
 
I reckon whichever team drops points today hands the title to the opponent. Need big characters out there today, I’d play Vinny and hopefully DeBruyne does a Yaya at Selhurst.
 
Actually have a feeling we might drop points today and scousers will win but then they will drop points in other games.

Kepa to throw the ball into his own net to give the dippers a “well deserved” last minute winner.

We need to win all our games as no one else will do us any favours. We win all our remaining games and we are champions
 
Wow what a mixture of emotions since wakening. Nerves, excitement, impatience but most of all a quiet confidence that these players will see this through, especially this title leg of the quadruple. We have stuttered a little bit but I do believe they can pull it all together and start playing the way we know they can. CTID
 
we must just play our game and let's hope its enough ?? and the one thing i will say is not matter who ends up title winners we can all be proud of the fight this squad and pep has put up this season, and without major players at times like KDB and mendy ?? and also still in with a big chance of winning all 4 is just really unbelievable when you think about it

the dream is still there and just having it in our own hands at this stage means everything, and pride in battle our old motto stands out for me

We are long overdue a last minute winner in the league. Come on Raheem, do your stuff. That would really demoralise the Dippers.

Steady on! What about a first minute goal from Raheem, followed by further goals at regular periods, say 2 per half? ;-)

You can’t beat the last minute winner but fuck me it’s hard on the nerves.

0-3 City, got a feeling we might get a professional, focused and ruthless performance today.

Good Evening all. Around this time in 1990 “ those of us old enough to remember it, will recall that Manchester City came to Selhurst, the week before our Cup Final with United. That day, their fans unveiled a massive banner in the Arthur Wait,& On
The pitch wishing us well against their rivals, which was a complete surprise, but nonetheless very welcome, and a great gesture.
At that time City were very much in the shadow of United, and were nothing like the formidable force they are today. Since then we've always had a mutual respect for their lot and Russell Gregory, one of our own, has built up a strong friendship with a bunch of City fans who always have a pint with him and his mates in the Cherries whenever we play them. This year we thought that we would return the compliment for a number of reasons - firstly because they did us a huge favour in knocking out the Seaweed a couple of weeks ago, secondly because of the huge mark of respect Raheem Sterling showed to our own Damary Dawkins recently following his sad untimely death, and thirdly because one of City's top boys Peter Thompson sadly died in November 2018, at just 52 years of age, leaving a wife Sheena and 3 daughters. “Tommo,” as he was known, was a Blue from birth following the club during the dark days right up until the present, and happily seeing a lot of their recent success.
And fourthly There respect & Donation to the Croydon 7 disaster fund and there fans response on the game after That horrible day ❤️ .
On Sunday our banner will be unfurled, welcoming their fans to Selhurst. We will hold the Banner up at half- time, before we present it to one of their fans, who will ensure that it's safely delivered to Tommo's wife. ❤️
The respect they've shown us deserves our utmost respect back, and in a time where football fans are occasionally stereotypically labelled, we hope to show the world that our reputation as a club of class fans continues unabated. We are Palace,
Enjoy the game. I wish I was there with you all. But will be watching on TV. PTID

That’s great. That was my second visit to Selhurst and remember the banner and the general good feeling about the place. Huge blue turnout.
 
...how about an equaliser in the last minute, then a winner in injury time.

....fuck me, there wouldn’t be enough candles in scouseland.
