Have to say I agree with the post. Usually I'm always rooting for the underdog and of course it's great to see City finish with nowt and for Eze to score the winner. But I've always taken comfort in that Palace had won naff all in their history. It irks me that they've put that to rights and drawn level with us.
That said, you'd have to be a soulless piece of work not to enjoy their fans' post-match celebrations. Seeing how much it meant to people of all ages really brought home what football's all about. We can only dream that one day it'll be us. Conclusive proof that's there never any excuse for mugging off a cup tie. |

New Gardening Leave-themed Marti song for those at Sunderland:
Marti Cifuentes,
Marti Cifuentes,
He plants wild heather
His flowers are yella
He hates f***ing Chelsea Flower Show
Sing it loud. Sing it proud |

I like Marti - mostly for what he did last year. But he gets a too easy ride in post-match interviews. I'd have liked someone to ask him about the folly of playing Madsen and Anderson in midfield - when we've seen that combination of sloth-like pace and muscle fail several times before. And why start Madsen out wide when he'd improved massively in the middle in the last couple of games (and set up our goal in this game with a superb ball when moved back into the middle)?
Also, why wait until 5 minutes into the second half to make changes and not do it at half time after such a wretched first 45 minutes? Still can't get my head around that. He never gets pressed by a reporter with any gumption and gets away with too many platitudes |

Thought he was decently average - which is a huge improvement for him, making it his best performance for us by a mile. He even caught one of their players with a stray elbow in an aerial duel. Had to rub my eyes to check it really was him |
