another 5 wins and we should be safe from relegation!

according to the BBC we had 22 shots, 11 on target. 12 corners and 58% of the possession. we deserved those 3 points.

Glad All Over

Makes a pleasant change from last years away games with hardly a shot on target , or one goal up early on & try to hang on for the rest of the game but concede in the last couple of minutes . The Cardiff semi final was probably the biggest let down , no ambition at all . Good to see a new outlook this season , long may it continue .

We are staying up!

I didn't go today (saving up for Leeds). As long as we stay level-headed, don't get cocky, ... best start in 37 years I'm told.

Eagles soar to the summit

Holloway said: "You never say never with the lads that I have in that dressing room and it is a great place to be at the minute.

"We were terrific from start to finish and I always believed that if we could get ourselves level a second goal might follow.

"That's exactly how it turned out and the manner of our second goal, which started from a punch from my keeper, was fantastic.

"Peterborough defended really well and Darren (Ferguson) will be disappointed because he won't feel he owed us anything, but that stats will tell you that we deserved the points.

"Someone said we are showing Championship-winning form, but that can soon change. We just have to try to keep it going."

cracking game yesterday... 1st half was quite end to end, and we never panicked being a goal down. 2nd half was all us... it did get to a point where we thought it wasn't going to be our day despite the dominance but once we got the equaliser i felt we would go on and get the winner..

...atmosphere was really great too.

That Zaha looks a tasty player. Expect him to be bench warming at the Emirates in January?

Wilf gets a well deserved England call up, so proud of that young man.
Hopefully others will see that playing every week is better than getting lost in the shuffle at a bigger club.

Hope if he does move he goes straight to a huge club and not a selling club like arsenal.

Expect him to be on the bench in Sweden on Wednesday!

Great to see Zaha in the full England squad.

arsenal wouldn't pay what our owners would want for him...


congrats to wilf for the senior call-up...

Perhaps not and great his talent has been recognised for an England call up. It's not going to be easy now to hang on to him in January. Even if Palace manage to stave off the inevitable offers and keep him he will have in the back of his mind whether he should have moved. Holloway will have to work his magic. It's always a downside to have such an incredible talent in a Championship side.

Err sorry it's going to be more than 7 million. Palace have already turned down 8 million from Bolton and he under contract for 5 years. Push more to 20 million and Palace might consider it. Anyways if Palace is pushing to the Premier League come start of next year he is not going anywhere

It's definitely a case of when Zaha leaves and not if. But my hope is we keep him until next summer at the very least.

Personally I think a £12m bid would be tempting for the owners, I don't think for one second we'll be demanding £20m.

Obviously, though, I hope he stays and when he does play in the Premier League it's with us... at least for a bit!

According to the BBC website the newest club that are watching Zaha are Real Madrid!!
This lads special, there's no way we should let him go on the cheap.

Wilfried Zaha - Crystal Palace and England.

Only a few minutes, but well done to him. Hope he brings the confidence to Saturday.

it was really good seeing a palace player representing england again... i think andy johnson was the last one...

...plus it should add at least another £5m to zaha's price tag...

Hope you guys have fun with Holloway

...But honestly though, it is understandable why he has gone to you lot, and I am certainly expecting a strong challenge for you lot now. Just don't take our players if you get promoted

(My cat is named after Ollie to be honest )

Cheers, he seems to be settling in well so far.

And has been very classy when talking about you guys too. Contrast to Freedman who hasn't really mentioned us.

The general affect he can have on a team is brilliant. He isn't brilliant at managing in general, but he gives teams an extra 25% and manages to get the results.

half-time: Palace 1-0 Derby

Murray with the goal. i think that's his 14th of the season.

2 nil now, Moritz

full-time: Palace 3-0 Derby

5 wins on the spin!

14 unbeaten!

21 consecutive league games we've scored! that sets a new post war club record!

15 goals for Murray this season!

^ Great stats!

Fantastic again, today, and very comfortable in the end.

Got a feeling the next 3 games could be defining...

Leeds, away - we've not won there since 2006.
Hull, away - they are in terrific form having won 6 of their last 8.
Brighton, home - the big one!
