Many thanks to everyone who has suggest Mereoaks. I'm going to give it a go. I can't see much chance of a capacity crowd until the start of 2017, assuming the start of next season we get off to a flying start. Gave Mereoaks a go, all very civilised but I guess several factors involved, low crowd, b...

I can't but feel a little sad, that we all accept Bolaise's fall to the ground quite so readily. Leaving aside whether or not Jake impeded him, there is no way that his actions would cause any body to fall to the ground so easily. I know its the modern game and something that we have accept and its...

As I couldn't get a space to park at the Holiday Inn on Friday, I decided to risk it and headed off to Green Park. No checks except for a security man outside of CGI. If Green Park are introducing more stringent checks, it didn't happen on Friday. Possibly the email was just for show, or they are ho...

This underlines why Palace are a bit fragile at the moment and we probably have the best draw we could have hoped for. They are expected to win, so anything less including a draw is going to be regarded as a poor performance. We should be prepared to be patient and nick this in last few minutes. The...

Adie Williams is funny. During the week he writes an article saying that Brian shouldn't rest any players at Huddersfield as we should make a real effort to make the play-offs. Then on BBC Berks this evening he is saying that we should have rested Michael Hector tonight and look after the Palace ga...

Mid way through the second half, I realised that I hadn't been irritated by him. Hopefully that is reflects on him doing a better job, rather than me somehow blocking him out.

FA 1/4 final could be a tough one for him. Plenty of tourists likely to attend for him to play up to.

Going back to the original point, there is a potential for some congestion for the next few weeks. If the checks are being made immediately past the roundabout for Costco, I can see a tailback developing as people are asked to provide id and then start arguing the toss with the security people. That...

Good call, I forsee a significant rise in applications for a Costco card !! I recall Boyd Butler from the club suggesting this in a wink wink kind of way once when asked about parking, However I suspect they too have restrictions in place and I heard the car park gate was locked once when fans retu...

I think I saw a sign up at the HP car park to say it was closing after the 23rd Feb, I don't know if anyone can confirm. Thank you for the heads up about Green Park checks. I used to know a chap who worked at Green Park who gave me permission to park at his offices. I had all the necessary emails et...

Last night he mentioned that we had brought back ball boys. One of us might be going mad, because as far as I am aware we have always had ball boys. The only difference was several years ago when we had to drop the multi-ball option.

I'm not sure where I read it, but I think 50 points is the usual number of points needed to avoid relegation in a typical season in the Championship.

Not even mentioned by the pundits after the draw - very below the radar.

"Someone should tell him to judge the mood not try and manufacture one for himself."

I think this is the real issue, you have summed it up perfectly.

Kermorgant is a sensible bit of insurance. If the right deal comes along for Sa, he can go. If not it won't do any harm to have Sa and Kermorgant in competition for the centre forward position.

55 / 45 positive/negative. So yes positive but not by a long way.

Let's see if Brian can do a "Kebe" with Ola.

Dellor's alright. I think he does a fairly good job of asking open questions to allow whoever he is interviewing a little bit of scope when they answer, and he voices his opinions in the right way (not shouting over everybody like he's on TalkSport), whether or not you agree with what he says. I th...

I thought he sounded quite contrite by his standard. Knows he is on thin ice.

Just wanted to say that for a long time he didn't really bother me one way or another, but I am now switching off the radio when he is on. He seems to be developing a role of taking a bit of antsy position just for the hell of it, with Tim and the "Reading Legend" Mick Gooding, who seem to...
