He's been horrendous today Clearly shouldn't have been played in this one. As I said before the game there is no way I would have done anything other than rested him. And it seems I was justified in that as he apparently played shit, and they lost anyway. Edited January 11 by bluebruce 2 1 Quote

He clearly allowed them one last stab at an equaliser. I've always understood that you're not supposed to end a half whilst a team is actively engaged in an attack. Noticed how you never see a fulltime whistle blown when somebody is about to strike the ball? I don't know if it's a written rule or an unwritten one, but when I was a kid I was told it was a rule. 1 Quote

Wasn't there a world cup match that a British ref blew-up for half time as one team scored from a corner ? It was a while ago. 2 Quote

The part about doing so generally causing controversy seems to be backed up by the reactions to those two decisions. Sounds like Clive mostly did it because he was naffed off at the procrastination by the corner taker. Btw below this it does say a penalty kick is an exception that must always be taken. 1 Quote

It seemed the Palace manage was seeking to cup tie any player that is attracting interest - keen to keep his best players until the end of the season (when he is also expecting to leave). Quote

philipl Posted January 16 Posted January 16 The news of Guehi and Glaser's departure from Palace plus Mateta being available for sale surely means Adam is on his way either in this window or next. 4 Quote
Elrovers Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago A bit stupid of people to base him off one game. Just because he got sent off doesn’t mean he’s shite. 1 Quote
jim mk2 Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago Wharton sent off on another bad day for Palace who appear to be in freefall. Are they going to do a Leicester and drop down the league in the relegation battle Hopefully Quote
simongarnerisgod Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago palace are selling their assets quicker than venkys🙂,surely adam will be next through the exit door,expect liverpool,arsenal and city to be circling imo 1 Quote

Ignore them. People like to bash English players. Especially young ones. People have their tongues up Brazilian arses despite Brazil not producing top quality players anymore Quote
roversfan99 Posted 40 minutes ago Posted 40 minutes ago I really dont get this anti English player agenda you seem so keen to push. Our media often overhypes English players. Quote
