Only in the Republic of Ireland...ours is week after It's next Friday in the UK.

I would say I've remained pretty level headed with all of this so far, however I must admit the frequency with which I'm checking the forum has increased significantly over the last week or so. I'm not even sure I'll know how to react if/when this actually goes through. Going to be hard to turn off the cynicism

I hope we sign him. He's an an entertaining player to watch.

Bring back Mbabu

...Is when the little X got clicked on my browser

Or they might turn out to be useful contributors when they have more talented players around them. Yeah, it's still early days. Hard to tell with these younger players. Yeah, that was of course the point I was making

Can't even remember how we're doing

Well yes, that goes without saying.

Ranger was really good in this game

I've never taken to Gayle as a player for some reason. I have a fondness for his Championship season with us, but of all the "prolific" strikers we've had over the years, he's some way down my list of favourites. That said, I like to think I'm rational enough to praise him when he's deserving of it, even if he's not one of my favourite players.

Nice assist, mind.

That really was grim.

Another match for the ever growing catalogue of "Worst game I think I've ever seen".

That awareness from Longstaff.

Bentaleb down because he knows he's likely to go.

Our fucking delivery

The fuck was that from Rose.

Even a modicum of pressure on our players and they can't deal with it.

How can a free kick as long as that result in an unmarked Palace player getting on the end of it. Criminally bad.

Surely we need to move away from 5 at the back.

Game over then.

You can tell Joelinton doesn't believe what he does is going to come off.

Us trying to do a fancy short goal kick, righto
