Crystal Palace 1-0 Watford

Kevin Phillips 105 mins, penalty.

Last game of the Championship season.
The playoff final.

Who will win ?
Who do you want to win ?

If promoted, Holloway reckons they might be in for a new ground !
Franco on the other hand is just going to enjoy it.

The winners pocket 60 million quid, with a further 60mill in 'payments'
making total prize money of 120 million (even if they go straight back darn !

The Championship top scorer, Murry is OUT he's jiggered.
Also, Palace only won 1 out of their last 10 league games at the end of the season ! By contrast, Watford won 3 of their last 8 games in all competitions.

Palace have been promoted via the play-off final 3 times into the Premier league. & this is Holloways 5th play off campaign.

Watfords 1st visit to Wembley, & Zola's 1st involvement in a play-off final.

So, Cardiff Hull &...........? Palace or Watford.
also, of the 3 who do go up, Who do you think will survive in the premier league, &..
Who will be for the drop back DARN

And remember !
A a day, helps you work rest &
watch play-off finals in the middle of the night

Better than Jacko's thread by a country mile

zaha wont start for man utd..
palace have been in the championship for 7 seasons..
most teams , who hang around long enough get a go at the play offs, just depends wether they take it or not.. Cardiff have had a sh-tload of goes before actually making it.
towns best bet is being a "derby" who end up mid to lower end, at least that's what the rhetoric from the clubs makes it look what we are "aiming for"...
town wont have a chance if we concede as many or anything like as many as last season..
The end of season more "positive" approach to games was better, but is still let down by not being able to defend... 9 clean sheets out of 46 with 3 of those being 0-0 home draws isn't ever going to be anything than a season of struggling..

Did you know.....
It costs almost the same to buy a kg of Mushrooms in Perth, as it does to watch Bayern at home !
$10.99 for the mushy's
6 quid on the terrace.

I wanted Palace to win for a friend of mine, good on 'em!

I watched the first 27 minutes and could see it would be a tense, low scoring match and went to bed. Mrs V was not happy, as she was up early, that's the main reason. Although, I would have been shattered waking up this morning.

Town had better sign some quality strikers and fast! UTT!

2 centre backs and 3 strikers..

get a couple of centre backs who don't pull everyone back onto them and we might even see our midfield actually playing in the "middle"... that would be novel for a start...

What's the situation with Vaughan & Beckford ?
any 'news' ...
Novak gone.

What's the outlook as far as forwards go ?
(has A Lee gone too?)

posted on 28/5/13

Beckford not coming back, Vaughan situation is 'ongoing'....

Lee gone....

Novak gone....


Rumours abound .....but who we eventually get will tell us how serious we are at having a go this next season..

chris taylor/simon eastwood(yes that eastwood) and alan judge signed by Blackburn???

maybe that a very big clue as to how much money some clubs have got this season????

taylor isn't a bad buy but he is massively cheaper than anyone they brought in last season...

kasim-richards isn't going back, they cant afford him...lord knows how they will manage to pay Rhodes???

a lot of trimming of the cloth taking place...

are all the managers running round Europe and scandanavia looking for bargains?????
