@braintree_ Kind of mine too (I mean, am torn between Fiorentina and Inter as the two clubs I've won titles with on Football Manager...)

Fiorentina are my Italian team and I might get a half and half scarf. I am so sorry.

🇮🇹 FIORENTINA vs CRYSTAL PALACE 🏴 Conference League quarter-final confirmed! ✅
English
@Phillyconcarne As much as anything, when he came in I don't recall him being identified for that role and there's clearly still a level of reluctance to use him that way, despite as you say the talent and the physical skills being obvious
English
Absolutely crazy take. He’s just not been good enough to start 10 league games for us ahead of Mateta, Nketiah or Strand Larsen. I actually really like him as a player and wouldn’t mind us getting him permanently because there’s a player there, but it’s clear why he’s behind them.
That’s why these clauses are there. If he’s not good enough we don’t buy him, both clubs agreed to that.

@laligaandbeyond Another case of Palace being really difficult to work with regarding transfers. Agents will start looking elsewhere eventually
English
@henryswainjourn I mean my first instinct was that Watford exist...
English
Any other clubs gone through four managers in one season?
Match of the Day@BBCMOTD
Sean Dyche's position is under major scrutiny following the goalless draw at home to Wolves. Sections of the Nottingham Forest fanbase are starting to turn, with boos from home supporters following Wednesday's shutout at the City Ground. Sources are indicating to BBC Sport that Dyche is now under significant pressure amid concerns over the team's performance.
English
The simple fact that they were ever allowed to race here is insanity.

No clever caption. Just some glorious footage of Sprint Cars at the Moody Mile in 1985 🤘

@henryswainjourn The promises bit is the fascinating one, got mentioned with Glasner as well and yet "Parish pledges to spend early, spend often" is easily in the Top 10 least credible things ever said by any human being
English
Very audacious considering how bad he’s been
Palace Report@PalaceReport
🚨 Mateta is disappointed with promises made in terms of a new contract, recruitment and ambition. @iamAlexHowell
English
@TalkCPFC Ambition is money. And not just this year, it's wages for years to come. I can understand why people just want the owners to turn the taps on from their own pockets, but we have no right to expect that and there are real dangers in doing so.
English
@HLTCO Yup, that's the nail on the coffin moment I think, if he literally will not use the players we do have even when there's no other choice...
English
This is one of my major gripes with Glasner’s post match comments.
He said he looked at the bench and saw no one worth bringing on. That’s terrible man management. Uche is there, he’s come from La Liga, he’s recalled Imray this week, is he saying he’s shite?
Adam Guest@adamguestsafc
@HLTCO As a Sunderland fan in peace, I was surprised that both he and the players seemed to give up in the second half? No subs at all used? Was Uche not worth a try?
English
@TalkCPFC Have said before the only way he was going to play the younger guys was if he was effing well made to, and he's managed to out-stubborn even that. Regrettably, needs to go before the players who are there get even more damaged by him
English
@ReubenPinder Even more fundamental I'd say, it's not that we don't have the ball because other teams are better and stop us, we don't have the ball because we don't want the ball, it terrifies us (and this has been true for yonks, think about the spell after Punch scored in the 2016 final)
English
@TalkCPFC To be fair, having a bad first touch is the single most consistent feature of every Palace team since we got back to the top flight
English
@VictoriaCoren Next year we need a proper Solicitors v Barristers match with @BarristerSecret in a wig and a lucha libre mask
English
I forgot to say it was on! Was certainly not trying to hide this delightful contribution to the national festive mood.
The Secret Barrister 🦋@BarristerSecret
It happened. Receipts below. Thanks to me, you all got to enjoy @VictoriaCoren talking about sadomasochism and branding buttocks. Don’t say I never contribute meaningfully to public legal education. (Also, there should be more law Only Connect. That was awesome.)
English
@TalkCPFC And now we wait to see if the only truly reliable method of getting managers to give game time to Palace academy players, what the experts technically describe as "F*****g well making them" comes up trumps again
English
@henryswainjourn Am quite nostalgic though as it was the quintessential bad Palace performance, grabbing every possible opportunity to give the ball away, no first touch left unpunted
English
It speaks volumes about what Glasner has done that this is the first time in ages i’ve been actually angry at a Palace performance.
But almost all of them were far off the standard they’ve set for themselves. Pathetic performance. #cpfc
English
@TalkCPFC Feels at though OG's answer to the fixture congestion is to literally tell them to play at half speed in the Conference, which is fine until a team spends 90 minutes running at you
English
@braintree_ I mean that's the first time anyone's described Will Hughes as sexing it up
English
@gdauberius He tried to sex it up on Thursdays and now the Cypriots are getting a national holiday!
English
Why do I feel Liverpool will have a word with themselves just before Palace play them on Wednesday.
English
@Jon_Mackenzie @scottjwillis Oooh, I'd forgotten their version of the ol' powder blues. I was thinking more a colour swap of this number..
English
@HLTCO The algorithm thinks I'm a Hammer not a Glazier purely because of the number of news stories that use the phrase "[Palace/WHam] are looking to beat [WHam/Palace] to the signing of..."
English
@braintree_ Someone once proudly told me that Arsenal have more season tickets holders from their own borough than anyone else, so heck, Camden wouldn't even acknowledge this
English
South London wouldn't even acknowledge this.
Tutankhamun@rileyarnie
They can’t let Arsenal win the league because the whole of London being disrupted/shut down for like a week or so would lose people so much money.
