interesting reads. still raises a lot of questions about the real motivation of agilo. looks like we have 2 months to get in new owners or we could be in really big trouble.

Brilliant result yesterday!

Sounds like we weren't great, but with so many matches right now it's great to get a win like this.

i don't know, theres something very fishy about
the whole thing. Jordan is right, it was an odd
time to put the club into administration, possibly
knocking prices off of players and then to lend
another million to cover wages seems almost
schizophrenic, considering they put the
administration order in after we used money
to pay wages - which COULD have gone to servicing
the debits.

Jordan seems to be in an intresting situation, holding 72% of the debt, although not as a secured creditor.

danns goal was class.

Was just looking at our fixture list and if you include the Cup match against Villa this weekend six of our next seven games are at Selhurst. The only away game in that run being at Doncaster on 27th Feb.

Shefki Kuqi back at Selhurst tomorrow night for the Swans. Hope he's not another in a long-line of ex-players that scores against us!

the sale of palace is now being advertised in the financial times.

Maybe there's some billionaire sitting on his yacht somewhere, who'll see that and realise it's exactly what he's looking to invest in. Or maybe not.

Looking forward to tonight, I'd be happy with a draw to be honest.

i hope that is a case of the administrators just covering all their bases and not a case of the Parish consortium no longer interested or anyone else for that matter.

I think it's the former. Stands to reason that the administrators would want to cover all possibilities even if they are talking to people who may be interested.

apparently ITV's news at 10 will be having a report about that.

Tonights clash with Swansea and there are two changes from the side that beat Scunthorpe at the weekend with Johnny Ertl and Lee Hills brought in to replace Matt Lawrence and Claude Davis in the back four.

Palace line-up: 1. Julian Speroni, 2. Nathaniel Clyne, 3. Clint Hill, 4. Shaun Derry, 7. Darren Ambrose, 8. Neil Danns, 10. Nick Carle, 15. Lee Hills, 19. Alan Lee, 20. Danny Butterfield, 22. Johnny Ertl

Subs: 9. Stern John, 14. Sean Scannell, 18. Calvin Andrew, 21. Kieran Djilali, 28. James Comley, 33. Alassane N'Diaye, 34. Alex Wynter

that defence looks a bit light tonight. hope i'm wrong.

Bugger! He's only gone and scored. 1-0 Swans.

had to be him to score!

listening on the radio. we sound tired.

Everyone else around us seems to be winning, too, at the moment...

Swansea are very good defensively. this is going to be tough.

Half-Time: Palace 0-1 Swansea

Not looking good so far. Their defence is going to be hard to unlock. Warnock needs to do his half-time magic, again.

Djilali and Andrew on for Butterfield and Lee.

Full-Time: Palace 0-1 Swansea

Not a great night for us with a number of teams around us winning. The next league game against Reading is crucial.

the lads have given a lot recently, we were bound to slip up at some point - we'll bounce back, Villa will be a good occasion but the next league matches are key.

Tonight had the feel of an exhausted club. After all the matches recently it was one game too far.

Outplayed in the first half, but could have nicked something in the end though. We just don't have the creativity to get past a team which defends like that.

Crap game all-round and dreadful attendance too.

Lets hope we can get back up for Sunday!

pretty poor show alll round. just played long ball, no one could hold onto it or get the ball down on the deck. no shape, no width. i'd like to see the likes of andrew, scannell, djilali given a run after the villa game as some are obviously knackered.

on a side note - the adimistrator has given us an update about what is happening:

^ If there are 20 interested parties interested, at least we know that he is not rushing things and making sure we properly benefit. It also helps to know that he is trying to sort out the stadium, which will benefit us in the long run, and is also meeting the Trust, and the local MP.

Elsewhere, the Richard Branson rumours have begun! (knew they would!)

i would love that to be true. that era when Virgin were our shirt sponsors was fantastic, and still my favourite kits lol

unfortunately i think Branson is just going for the usual soundbites.

Yeah, those were the days. When we didn't have to worry about things like administration, only Cup Finals!
