Zaha might be out tonight...

Post by Marney&Mee » Mon Nov 23, 2020 9:49 am

decent-ish source rumour that he's got/is self isolating with Covid.

Could be absolute nonsense of course, but the source is neither tomato nor brown nor Wellsy...

make of it what you will

Sounds like nonsense. I fully expect him to start and it'll be a small bonus if he doesn't.

Trouble with that idea you are leaving somebody else free or if you decide to mark all the forwards you are losing some attacking impetus yourself, palace are setup to counter we can’t go gung-ho I’m not sure the pace is there to track back sporadically for parts of 90.

No, it's not, Jakub.
Nobody's "promoting" betting and any discussion about it is likely to be short-lived unlike the covid and politics threads which were invariably hijacked by a small group insistent on pushing forward their agenda.
The board is much better without them.

In fairness, you did a lot of running with the hare & hunting with the hounds yourself, but manuovered tactfully away before action was actioned. I'm not spoiling this thread so not commenting further in respect to the decent posters who post.

Again, a bloke mentioning the odds of one of our lads scoring with a header is hardly promoting betting, is it ?
I think, fwiw, that Woody is more likely to score with a header so the bookies' odds regarding that possibility are quite interesting.
I assume Palace are favourites to win ?

No, I gave people stick when they posted right-wing, racist nonsense. Sorry and all that but the culprits were shooed off the site and now all is well.
I'm glad you respect us decent posters. Much appreciated !

I sincerely hope Zaha is out.

Palace 8/5
Burnley 7/4
Draw 21/10

We have pretty much had every subject going discussed on this MB.
But the three you mention turned into insult, free for alls. Most of the posters on here wanted rid of them and it's a far happier place.

I don't know if the posters always on them threads don't like discussing football or other light hearted topics or they got banned? But most seem to have disappeared.

Fair point though it's worth mentioning the 3 teams we've played at home are Southampton, Spurs & Chelsea, and all 3 are pushing towards the top end of the league, so that's puts our barren home run into some perspective.

Be a big boost if he is out, however we still can't rest on our laurels, they have plenty of other players capable of causing us problems.

I'm a negative sod. But it's gained us a lot of points last season by saying we've lost, only for us to come back and get some points.

No chance we'd have finished 10th, if it wasn't for me.
