I'm amazed we even had a shot let alone actually scoring!

Wasn't expecting anything today so that is a bonus point and a lovely one at that.

And about time we got something off of them after recent games where we have deserved something and got nothing against them.

Should boost the lads for the trip to Old Trafford... hopefully.

first season up we got 45 points, last season we got 48. we're now on 39 with 4 games to go so we can still get around the same.

Man United (A)
Newcastle (A)
Stoke (H)
Southampton (A)

Dann mentioning his knock in the after match interview. Might be wise to rest him for the trip to United so he's 100% for the semi-final.

wouldn't mind seeing a few rested on Wednesday night to be honest but I don't think it will happen. Pardew will want to keep some momentum going. 4 unbeaten now.

Really pleased with that. A point is definitely better than I thought it would be and a goal from open play to boost. Hopefully a good momentum to go to old Trafford with

I thought Bolasie had mucked up another shot tbh, was crazy when it went in.

Did not expect that point at all. Very happy tonight.

feels good getting a point off of them at last... feels even better as we probably didn't deserve it! makes a nice change...

united on wednesday... another team we have a shocking record against, so fingers crossed we can get something there too....

I love Bolasie but whenever he tries to shoot, how many of us think it's going in? Most don't. It was a brilliant goal.
I do wonder after seeing the replays whether wilf should have gotten a pen or passed to Ade for the winner. Would have been fantastic.

Looks like there will be some rested tomorrow night. According to Pardew in today's press conference Dann, Ledley and Ward will not feature. Bolasie has a knock and might not be risked. Wouldn't surprise me if a couple of others are rested, too, ahead of Sunday.

Good news about McArthur, though. He's back, and will be in the squad for the United game.

I don't usually dream about football, but last night Palace were holding United to a goalless draw at half-time, early in the second half Zaha dribbled the ball away from the goal-keeper along the by-line, passed back to another Palace player, picked up a return pass and scored!

I woke up before the final whistle though.

Luke Dreher on the bench! Don't think he's turned 18 yet.

You can tell we have a FA Cup semi-final coming up, some of the tackling (if you can actually call it that) is pathetic.

And Sako just continues to be poor in general.

it was a beauty Plucky. cross came in, no one near him and he struck it sweetly past Jules.

HT: 1-0 United.

you can see why most of this lot are our second string!

It actually hasn't been awful from us. Some silly defending and lacking up front as usual but we're still in it just like we were at Arsenal.

A second United goal will kill the game, though.

You can see some of the ones we need to offload in the summer.
