Well.. I'm glad it's over. We've had some poor finishes to the season before but this one feels particularly bad as its been bottom of the table form since January. The noises coming from the club about changing things (I.e. silence) are not a good sign. Fear the worst moving forward.. But we will at least be in the Prem for one more year!

Noone at all taking responsibility at the back there. Everyone looking at each other like its not their fault. Team spirit is part of the managers job too.. seems to have totally gone under Ralph. Too many problems to sort in one summer.

Oh dear what the heck was that defending. Just let him run on through and score. Utterly embarrassing..

Obafemi for Ings. Goodbye to him I think and thanks for the goals!

He has looked lively this past 10 mins but no end product as usual. Nice of him to try hard now there is only 10 mins of the season left.

Tella should have done better there.

Poor from Salisu there. But then he's new to this left back stuff.

He'll be back next year I guess as one of our main striking choices alongside Obafemi and Adams.

Very odd change to take off one of our best players today. Unless he's tired or carrying an injury. Obviously hoping to just keep it at 2 nil.

Really torture watching this season. Not sure why I keep doing it.

Not much chance I'd say. Nobody at the club is steering.

Well, glad we are safe already. Hope for better next year.

Is it any worse than it used to be though? All VAR does is bring under the spotlight the bias (consious or unconscious) that the regulators generally have toward bigger teams. Refs have been doing it for years anyway. (See figures for penalties given against Man Utd at OT)

We've been very wasteful first half. Hope it doesn't come back to bite.

Hopefully with Obafemi back, that'll be the last we see of Dan Nlundulu. Never seen such an ineffective, slow player.

Of no consequence but once again the ref clueless to the free kick being moved by Palace miles away from where the "foul" occured.

Ref is on the beach. Has no awareness at all.

Yes, game is passing him by. Keeps breaking down the attack.

Ref is clueless today. Terrible performance so far.

BBC not even watching the game "Southampton give it away again on the edge of their own box as Jannik Vestergaard completely misses his touch and Christian Benteke pounces. Jack Stephens does really well to block his effort."

WTF? No foul. Total dive again.

Dive Zaha again. Commentators oblivious despite replay.

Still, it makes Jack Stephens feel better 😄

So, they shove us all over the box but nothing given. One challenge at the other end and its a pen. VAR's great eh..

Commentary team on Sky doing their best to get Vest his summer move.
