super darren ambrose 10th of the season wins the game!

Damn good win for us is that. Really very pleased. Might as well give Ambrose the player of the season award now the way he is going!
Great stuff.

Blimmin' brilliant! Great, fun game.

I think I love Speroni.

It wasn't a draw.

We looked like we wanted to win too.

Really good result that, Ambrose has been awesome and to think Charlton fans laughed when we signed him. If he doesnt do another thing all season he has prooved his worth already.

our recent form is pretty good overall when you look at it. in the 10 games since the scunthorpe debacle we have only lost 1 to leicester. won 4, drawn 5 of the other 9. if we can get a striker in january, one who can actually score we could really push on.

Bloody annoying that we have yet another international break. Always seems to happen when we string a few good results together.

some more news coming out about david gold and a potential takeover from this weeks croydon advertiser...

Palace line-up v Coventry today:

Speroni, Hill, Derry, Fonte, Ambrose, Danns, Sears, Lee, Butterfield, Ertl, Davis.

Subs: Clyne, McCarthy, John, Carle, Mose, Andrew, N'Diaye.

we're 1-0 up. guess who? yep, its ambrose again!

Ambrose is quality. At the rate he is going he'll end up with 25+ this season!!

half-time: coventry 0-1 palace

so far, so good.

11 now for Ambrose this season. Apparently that already matches his best ever haul.

bugger. the lead only lasted 2 minutes into the 2nd half. coventry are level. 1-1.

Full-Time: Coventry 1-1 Palace

that's just 1 defeat in our last 11 league games now. problem is, including today, 6 of them have been draws.

I've said it before, even though we aren't getting beat its damn frustrating that we can't turn more of these draws into wins. If we had gone on to win just 3 of those games we'd be sitting comfortably in the play-off positions right now. I really hope we can get a striker in on loan come January.

So frustrating. If we only had a decent front man things could be so different.
Thing is im not sure theres the money or the will to bring the right person in.

yeah. i like freddie sears but he hasn't turned out the way i thought. i really believed he would get us 20 goals + for us this season. still regret the day we let morrison go.

Talking about strikers we've taken former Woking striker Joel Ledgister on trial... although I'm betting you were all hoping for someone more high-profile!

at home to watford today. we're already 2-0 up! moses and lee with the goals.

palace line-up: 1. Julian Speroni, 3. Clint Hill, 4. Shaun Derry, 6. Jose Fonte, 7. Darren Ambrose, 8. Neil Danns, 11. Victor Moses, 19. Alan Lee, 20. Danny Butterfield, 22. Johnny Ertl, 24. Claude Davis

Subs: 2. Nathaniel Clyne, 10. Nick Carle, 16. Freddie Sears, 18. Calvin Andrew, 28. James Comley, 29. Ryan Smith, 33. Alassane N'Diaye

Speroni saves a Waford penalty!
