"The result sees Palace move up to 13th with Brighton in 16th, just four points above a resurgent Fulham in 18th and at risk of being drawn into a relegation battle."

Seeing terms like resurgent, rejuvenated, spirited, etc. being applied across the board to our team given our turn of form - fills one with pride it does. Palace looked trash tonight. Come on Fulham, turn them over!  049:gif 049:gif

But watch them on the break!

They did us last time like they did Brighton, only then they had  Zaha.
Had to feel sorry for Brighton last night, but shows what quality strikers can do for a team, and what the lack of them   can do too.
Palace also defended heroically.

But it is great to hear Fulham spoken of like this,  but just hope we  can keep it going.

In all honesty that is how we played under Roy. We managed to scrape results through sheer hard work and sometimes against the odds

That is how Roy has always set his teams up

" rows of 4 and a top 2 who turn in backwards to defend

So will we fall in to that trap? When Roy was here, I remember that we defended for 20 minute spells then pushed forward for 10 minutes. If we didn't score we went back to defending. Our best chance is to find a way to attack them during the 10 minute spells but not get sucked (or suckered) forward while they are set up to defend in depth. That way we might not get caught on the break. In other words be patient.

We need to do a Roy of the Rovers on Roy and his merry men, who will not be quite so merry come Sunday afternoon when we do a number on them.

That's the spirit, enjoy the battle!!

Too much to expect, Roy of the Rovers never suffered goal droughts.

We should set out to bore them into submission....first half, don't leave our half, in fact don't leave the changing room - 2nd half start with a progressive 8-1-1 formation....10 minute's to go, when they're not looking hit them & hit them hard with a 1-1-8 all gun's blazing....worked in world war 1

The problem we have now playing the likes of Palace,Burnley,Soton & Newcastle.Draws are decent results for them forcing victories aren't easy.
