I had to watch the Palace match highlights yesterday, not because I couldn’t wait to relive the win, but because I missed about half the game amid the celebrations in the stands 😭

@CR2SE25 Arsenal’s presentation started after 6:50, so way after 6:30. Speeches weren’t done until 6:30 earliest. And you’re acting like I’m suggesting folding Crystal Palace. I’m saying it’s normal our fans were impatient about the delays and you lot are being weirdos about a few boos.

@takeapuntonus They screwed up the timings and got a few pantomime boos in response. There was no issue here until the Palace fans logged on to whine and cry.

@afcDW Not like it’s their ground or anything. God forbid they go slightly over schedule and keep the people’s club waiting.

@takeapuntonus Absolutely. Just don't tell people you'll be done in 30 minutes, take more than 50, and then whine on social media about anyone who was unhappy at how long you took.

@takeapuntonus We also probably wouldn't have won the match (the winner was scored from a corner) or the league (won in part by scoring a record number of corner goals). We take time over something we're good at, we were still done on time for Palace's 18:00 prediction for the end of the game.

@afcDW To be fair if you hadn’t spent two minutes setting up each set piece the match would have finished earlier

@CpfcRyan1995 It's Palace's plan, I'm not putting forward my proposal, I'm reminding you of their schedule. If it was an impossible plan to stick to, then it was a mistake to announce it. I know from Arsenal's EOS speeches etc. last Monday that it's possible to do in 25 mins from full-time.

@afcDW Yes, but how are we meant to start a presentation at 18:05 if the game finished at 18:00, if your players are still on the pitch celebrating with your fans? It would’ve been a lot quicker if we didn’t have to keep stopping for your fans during everything else.

You mean when they boo’d Steve parish talking.. the FIRST speech? Not to mention fans trying to push into the ground at FT, faking being stewards to get into the ground… 🤥
Dan Critchlow@afcDW

The Arsenal fans didn't boo Palace, the only boos came when the someone announced they were going to do *another* speech/award. Palace promised us a trophy presentation at 18:30, but the Palace players were still on the pitch at 18:50, obviously our fans got impatient.

@CpfcRyan1995 As I pointed out here, the game finished on time at 18:00 per Palace's expectations. There is no issue, it's just completely understandable the fans were impatient during a 30-minute presentation that lasted more than 50 minutes. x.com/afcDW/status/2…
Dan Critchlow@afcDW

Bearing in mind the match was done at 18:00, perfectly on time for Palace's schedule. So no idea why they then turned their 30-minute presentation plan into almost an hour.

@afcDW Partly because there was 7 minutes added on, and then your players celebrated infront of your fans at FT (rightly so), it was never going to be a dead cert time. You got your trophy lift, why does it matter?

@Joanne_Tester Yeah they got a good reception, from memory I think Glasner was also applauded by our end when he was introduced in the presentation, and people around me were wishing Palace the best for their final.

@afcDW It was also a very quiet pantomine boo with no malice at all. All palace players were applauded as they walked past our end too.

Let’s review: - Definitely doesn’t regret it - Played 451 mins in the last 8 games - Yes, he’ll be 28 soon - Going to the World Cup - Signed him to win the league - Looks pretty happy to me

Said to my brother before Burnley that it was crazy that by the end of the week we could be 8 points clear of City or 4 behind them. Was just making a point about how much could still change, didn’t expect to actually end up 7 clear.

Thought that the stifling heat and my aching legs wobbling as I stood on my seat after an hour of waiting would dull my emotional reaction to the trophy lift. But no, I still teared up. This is our club, back on top.
