Crystal Palace (H) | Post Match Thread

Cool. I have to admit it looks more and more like a red card every time I see it as there was no need for the attacker to swing his arm.
One of the limitations is that VAR can deem it a foul and yellow card offence (or even a goal kick rather than a corner) but no action is taken.
It's as clear as fuckin' day that VAR is being used selectively! I would bet my stock of City shirts that had that forearm gone into a Rag or Dipper mush VAR would have bounced up and yelled in the ref's ear.
 
Palace Forum.
What did the rest of us do, go and support United?
Never ceases to amaze me that every single fan of "poorer" teams kid themselves on they would walk away if they were taken over!View attachment 54117
I fucking love other Premier League fans putting on their best "authentic football fan" routines. What do they think Palace is if not a commercial entity. Do they think having 73 fans in black polos, a drum and a rivalry with Brighton makes them uniquely salt of the earth? Fuck off. What even is a "demographic of Disneyland". If they want to be racist they should just spit it out of their authentic cockney mouths.
 
The celebration after their second was embarrassing. Hopefully their fans or another player will pull the wanker up on it. Watching too much NFL.
I just didn't get what the celebration was, did it mean something? It looked innocuous to me.
 
It was like the United Nations in 101 yesterday. We are more and more attracting fans globally. There was a woman with two young kids in front of us in the queue to get in, scarves, City face paint. the lot. Had just flown over from Barcelona to watch the game. Incredible. Haaland takes us to the next level commercially. Hopefully football wise too.
 
I forgot to add that it was great to see Cole get some more minutes of first-team action.

He certainly doesn’t look out of place among our more senior players.
 
I think you need to realise that the majority of fans have little real understanding of pep , his tactics and genius. They hanker after up and at em football and are easily flustered.

I didn't hear booing near me but could from the South. The clueless near me just want the ball "forward" and don't really get the recycling part of peps plan.
This is a valid point. A lot of fans are flappers. They revert to the "get it forward" routine when things are going a bit awry.
It's like watching a chess master play with Pep in charge. Fans don't see the game as he sees it, and they only recognise the genius after he has check-mated the opposition.
