0-0 at the half.

Getting desperate for a goal now!

desperate is the word... come on palace!

Full-time: 0-0

Probably time for Dougie to get his boots back on and show this lot how to actually score.

at first glance a draw against a team sitting in the promotion places might be considered good but when you look at how abysmal our away form is we must win our home games to have any chance of staying up...

I suppose we should look at the positives - we did play quite well, we created more than enough chances to win the game and our defence has kept yet another clean sheet at home.

Hopefully the wins we need to start getting are just around the corner.

definitely a better all round performance today. on another
day with more luck in front of goal we would have won but
we do need to practice our shooting.

was impressed with Parsons and Scannell was very good.

we just need that win now to give the lads that much needed
confidence booster.

^ Agree with that.

Played well I thought and could have got the win with some better finishing.

Parsons looked exciting on his debut.

I see you point but Dougie knows more than anyone that the away form has to improve. If we can continue with the good home form and transfer that away from home we should win more of our last 18 games then lose...

...in theory.

my biggest concern is if our away form doesn't improve. thats a lot of pressure to win our home games then...

i'm still hopeful we will get out of this mess as things do seem to be improving slowly under dougie...

so far it looks like Dean Moxey from Derby is our only signing today.
still no sign of that defensive midfielder.

at least we rejected Hull's bid for Neil Danns.

Glad we got Moxey but that was another huge anti-climax. I'm assuming we will now be delving back into the loan-window to get a defensive midfielder in soon?

CPFC2010 have said that's more than likely. the window
opens next week.

tonights team at Watford -

Speroni; Clyne, Wright, McCarthy (c), Barrett, Ambrose, Danns, Zaha, Vaughan, Parsons, Marrow.

Subs: Price (GK), Davis, Iverson, Garvan, Scannell, Easter, Counago.

we've scored a goal!!

1-1 at half-time. vaughan with our equaliser.

final score is 1-1.

good away point. edges us out of the bottom 3 for now.

yeah decent point tonight but we really need to beat boro on saturday as there is small gap opening up between the bottom 4 and the rest... we can't afford for that to get any bigger.

As a Watford fan i thought you did ok. Chances were hard to come by for both teams and the referee was one of the worst i've seen all season. I think a point was deserved by both teams.

Cheers Simmons.

We're becoming harder to beat of late that is for sure. Just wish we had turned one of these draws in to a win. Puts more pressure on us for Saturday now. That really needs to be three points.

Good away point last night.

We're building slowly, but surely.

Hull still intend to pursue Neil Danns in the summer.

i'm still hopeful that Danns will sign an extension to his contract
but i would no longer bet on it. depends if we stay up or not too.
no way he would stay if we went down.

it annoys me that he's still holding out on signing a new contract especially as it was vastly improved... i don't think he'll still be with us next season...

Tony Popovic is returning to Palace to be part of Dougie's coaching staff.

Also apart from those 2 bl**dy annoying songs, the south london and the we love you ones, you had excellent support.

todays team v boro...

Speroni, Clyne, McCarthy, Gardner, Moxey, Marrow, Wright, Zaha, Ambrose, Easter, Vaughan

Subs: Price, Davis, Garvan, Counargo, Iversen, Barrett, Scannell

Nice attacking line-up there from the Dougster. Hopefully it pays off.
