Trouble at the Palace v. Southampton game, although Southampton supporters aren't all Saints: Palace (Some of the comments are quite amusing)
Manager Neil Warnock was not happy with the draw. He said: 'We got punished with an elementary defensive error from Shaun Derry, one of our more experienced players. It was disappointing really, put it in the stands and they can't score a goal from it.
'That's two games we have thrown away by elementary defending really so we've just got to get back to basics over the next few games.' However, he consoled himself with the fact that he reckons the Glaziers need just another five points to avoid relegation.
Their defensive weaknesses might give me more confidence if our final ball was better. Our approach play is often fluent, if sometimes too slow. But sometimes we hesitate fatally in front of goal. A few more speculative shots would not be a bad idea.

It's strange that you should make that comment about shots. I thought that against Stoke we were shooting from everywhere, must have been an instruction from Pardew.
It is the lack of quality in the final third of the pitch which is costing us.Can anybody remember a memorable goal this season?Most have been scrappy ones.A decent crosser of the ball is essential.Cue loanee Cook if he is fit?
I would agree with what anonymous says. Crosses have been poor (so have corners in general). Let's hope Cook can do something.
