Again

Same. Purely out of spite though

11minutes of added on time. Well done VAR.

I for one wanted our oil brothers to win so commiserations.

Absolute quality

Some goal from Bowen that

In the last four games he’s put a second GK on the bench twice and we’ve won both times. When he hasn’t done it we’ve drawn and lost. Never underestimate the impact John Ruddy has on games.

Aye, I think the last injury has finished him off. He has been so unlucky over his career.

I think the fear of Isak is definitely a factor and even if he's not on form, they're still preoccupied with him if he's on the pitch. I hope Wilson takes this rare opportunity to get a goal to at least put him in the eyes of a potential future employer. In the past he's used the criticism to push him on, it's whether or not he still has the ability to do so.

Didn't like NUFC = cunt. RIP

Not sure if it’s been mentioned on the football forum but journalist / writer Brian Glanville has died. Always seemed like a difficult type and as well as not having any time for NUFC he was particularly (and unfairly imo) critical of Bobby Robson’s tenure as England manager. Despite that he was an undoubtedly brilliant writer and I always enjoyed his articles in World Soccer, which I used to regularly buy. One of the first writers on football to elevate the craft to the standard more traditionally associated with cricket

Ah the famous impartiality of sky.

I wonder if Wist Am fans are gutted they hounded out Moyes now? Potter is a fraud.

If it had been one of the so-called ‘top 6’ the check would have been complete within 60s guaranteed.

I’m confident. This team turns up for the big games and we’re in better form than them. Isak hasn’t been contributing much lately anyway. I suspect he’s been carrying an injury so he won’t be a big miss (in current form)

6 minutes of trying to find a reason for disallowing a perfectly good goal. What an absolute farce.

Wtf were they looking at? I've got it on with no sound and he looked onside from the first check.

Can the semi-automated not be used when there are a bunch of players together?

This VAR check is ridiculous

Those saying Isak has looked off it. I think we have found out why. A few have said he looks like he's been carrying an injury and even DK said he's booked in for an op.

I agree but tight games sometimes need something or someone special. If its a matter of Isak being 100% next week then I'm completely fine with it BTW. Maybe Wilson can have a swansong to remember.

Agreed although as we were discussing last week, I think he’s been carrying an injury for some months.

Sorry to hear that Cath, condolences

That prompted me to reply. I don't know a single City fan that takes trophies for granted. Yes it will have meant more to their fans as its their first ever trophy but please don't accuse us of taking it for granted. Yesterday was more important than CL qualification, we're not Arsenal targeting CL qualification every season then switching off. Mostly recovered from the disappointment of yesterday. I was fuming at Hendersons handball not getting a red but calmed down now. Nothing will convince me that that wasn't a red. Even Ian Wright said it was a red and that he (Wright) would have scored if that was him. Not sure why they'd have an ex Palace player in Darren Cann as VAR Assistant. He played in the Palace youth team as a striker alongside Ian Wright. But it's done now. I like Palace and live near them. Not met many of my Palace friends or neighbour yet. Although 1 called up and gave it large over the phone. Give her the benefit of the doubt for being a bad winner as it's new to her. For comparison, when we won the FA Cup in 2011 i got pizza in for everyone in the office the next working day. I did the same when we won the league in 2012 and a few times after. It was to make up for putting up with me going on about City all the time. A shame for Palace as it takes the shine off it for them imo. Not that they'll care obviously. I wouldn't. Their replacement keeper may have saved the penalty and it might have stayed 1-0. We'll never know, Only one result matters to me now. The 115. oh and good luck v Arsenal later,
