yes! 1-0! scrappiest OG ever!

We've looked so much better with McArthur on for Mutch.

1-0 at the break. does that count as an own goal or not?

It's been given to Murray as his header was on target but it clearly wasn't going to be a goal until Cresswell took his wild swipe at it. To me that's an OG.

suppose it doesn't matter, they all count!

last 10 minutes or so of that half we were well on top. we do need to get Zaha in to the game more.

2-0! Dann with his trademark.

great leap by Dann.

no relaxing now, though.

3-0! Definitely Murray this time!

lovely header by Murray.

time to shut up shop!

Loved the banter on soccer saturday about the own goal

Murray sent-off. No way that was a second yellow but he's been on a tightrope for a while.

Murray was just about to be subbed too. bugger.

here we go. there's one back for them.

We need to kill the game. Ledley needs to come on.

Pards has heard - here comes Ledley.

Great save by Jules!

aargh! stop giving the ball to Valencia!

Job done. 3-1 it is.

great effort by all, nerve-wracking ending! big 3 points. up to 30 now.

Very nervy after the sending off, but that is a quality away win. Love it.

Poor for 30 mins, brilliant for 45, panic-stations for the last 15! No wonder us Palace fans age before our time!

Top effort from all after Murray went off. Everyone dug deep. That save by Jules from Valencia was world class.

our midfield is much more solid when Jedi & McArthur are in there.

thought the back four were all excellent.

Murray worked his socks off, a pity about the red card.

a good day has become better with today's other results. Villa, Burnley, Hull & Sunderland all losing.

we're 8 clear of the drop zone now.

With our much better goal difference than those in the bottom five we effectively have another point on them all at the moment.

Millwall getting beat again. They're now six adrift from safety. Agent Holloway continues a sterling job although he may not be allowed to see the mission out to the very end.

Looks like we might lose the Jedi for 2 or 3 games I fear.
Can have no complaints either really, that elbow wasn't on in my opinion.
