Another goal tonight. Will need him next season. Probably need him now.

Palace f*cked up the FdB appointment, but at least they addressed it almost immediately. Our loyalty to MP is admirable, but will likely cost us. Recruitment (both players & staff) has gone down hill.

Our tactic is just stick to the same formation and change players around.

Momentum ALL with Palace.

That's the problem. We know we aren't going to put this game to bed easily.

No options on bench (!)

Think I just heard Adam Blackmore say Gabbi isn't 100%.

Chairman Ralph mentioned Phase 1 of a St Mary's refurb will start this Summer. [Mentioned in the email with Adam Blackmore]. Unknown if it's just a new bit of paintwork, or anything more substantial.

Hoedt confirms he's out with concussion.

No. You thinking of Darren Potter?

Says Neil Mellor. Liverpool fan, who's club sign all of our players.

The pause when Blackmore says we've gone backwards since Ronald left is golden.

"We are a small club". Excellent post-takeover mantra.

Ralph's interviews are just about bearable when we are doing OK. They aren't so good when we are struggling. More Waffle than a Waffle factory on Waffle Street.

SSN: Huddersfield are close to making Monaco defender Terence Kongolo their first signing of the January transfer window, according to Sky sources.

Is Hoedt injured? Benteke would beast Yoshi & Stephens.

Craig Maskell?

& of course, somehow figure out how the hell to score without Charlie Austin. (& hope Benteke doesn't beast our defence)
