Totally agree and not the first time BFS has done this!

Yep. Going down with a whimper.

Unfortunately its not enough to see improvements when you're still losing to some of the worst teams in the league. It looks like a fresh start in the summer would be a good idea

He’s completely ignoring attacking players on the bench, why? 1 goal in 5 games and we continue to bring on Robson Kanu. Grady, Robinson and Grant might not be up to it in this division but neither are those on the pitch, and we will have to rely on them next season whether we like it or not.

Yep. This. 

lAVVRO’s favourite catchphrase has never been more appropriate.

Totally my thoughts.

The last two games have shown he's not the right man for the job. Up until the Newcastle game, I'd have been content for him to stay in charge next season, but the lack of any proactive decisions to influence those games have sealed our fate, and his.

Pretty much like last week's game for me. Looking more solidxat the back, good energy in the middle, never looked like scoring. But we deserved a point.

It's put me in a foul mood. I can handle losing normally but I don't like losing like that. A penalty from the most innocuous of crosses. Palace did little to merit their win.

This. In 2 games against Palace we've managed to shoot ourselves in the foot both times and this, up against the wiliest manager around. Talk about handing over the initiative.

Palace have picked up 9 points in recent weeks from games they didn't merit to win. That's the difference
