CRYSTAL PALACE, we have drawn you, so strap in for a wonky thread of substandard doodles of Cap'n Glasner & friends.
P.S. This is our first batch of drawings since we jumped ship from Twitter, so if you know any Palace fans who might enjoy this stupidity please do point them our way x

Enjoyed that! Unusual to leave Selhurst after playing the Champions to a draw, but feeling like we should have won, but I'll take the point. Onwards and upwards!

Beautiful day here at Selhurst Park: windy, wet and cold. Perfect football weather when playing the fancy-dan one-touch passing champions. We'll probably lose anyway, but looking forward to seeing Palace getting stuck in to them and causing problems on the break.

Palace win away! Dreadful game illuminated by a flash of brilliance by JP. 4pts in the last 2 games the minimum we needed. On to Saturday...

Palace escape with a point which should have been three considering Newcastle didn't have a shot on goal all game. Impressed with LaCroix and Devenney. Desperately need someone to create good chances rather than depending solely on Ebs.

Off to Selhurst for the game vs Newcastle. Are Palace on the slow train to relegation, or the express to mid-table obscurity? Think the next couple of games will be good indicators 😬🫣 #cpfc

At Selhurst, vs Leicester. Palace should win fairly comfortably, so we'll probably lose 0-1 to a late Ayew wonder goal...🫣

Good point for Palace, much improved 2nd half. Doucoure exceptional when he came on, and gave Wharton space to do his job. Sarr also stretched a tiring defence. Muñoz and Hendo also excellent. Ok, that's preseason out of the way, now to play like we mean it!

Ok view I s'pose. Still prefer Selhurst 😉

I could be snuggled on the sofa with this floof, but instead I'm on my way to Stamford Bridge surrounded by fat, shaven-headed Chelsea fans to see Palace inevitably lose again. Why do I do this?

And so it begins again: 9 months of stress, joy, angst and uncertainty. Following Palace is the best soap opera in the world and I wouldn't have it any other way. A gentle winning start away at Brentford please 🦅❤️💙

Having a 'Boris Day' today, otherwise known as WFH. This furry monster is helping me work, mainly by sitting next to the laptop and demanding fuss every 5 mins 😻

Why is it we consistently fail to score from corners, but know exactly how to concede from them?
