    I'm more concerned about the selection beyond the keeper, I'd be livid if Doucoure and Delefou don't start.

    I think the fact the Delefeou didn't start at Man City will mean he starts this one. This is a quarter final and I hope that Gracia now sees this as a chance of a trophy. I'm hoping he plays the strongest team possible.
    I'm normally quite positive about my teams predictions but I think the two days out at Wembley has scarred me for life and have a horrible feeling about this game. Hope I'm wrong but I can see Palace winning this and if they do, no question who will get the winner

    Bit of a free hit this. Win and we'll get to Wembley, lose and know full well we wouldnt have won the cup anyway. Win win. The only way we lose is getting to play city in the final to break a few scoring records. Remember when Man City beat Watford 9-0 in the cup final to score 35 goals in their cup run?

    We're losing this, it’s written in the sky polluted Watford stars.

    Good couple of efforts to spell Deulofeu in posts 71 and 72.

    Also, Palace fans appear to be bringing their fetish masks and refusing to spend money in the ground “in aid of the 2500 Palace fans who can’t get a ticket”

    Genuinely think this is the weirdest thing I’ve seen since the vegetable thing in 07.

    I don't understand why we've not let Watford fans use the Vicarage Road end, where Palace couldn't fill their quota.

    boycotting buying stuff in the ground? I've been doing it for years considering the cost!

    Where did you see this? I probably won't spend anything in the ground due to the no booze rule in the away section, and I don't own a fetish mask. Yet.
    The tickets were fairly priced at £18 & how many you gave us is entirely up to you. I've got no complaints.

    I'm not sure what I like best, the spelling or the sea of yellow we'll all hold up when you're on the attack. What colour do Watford wear again?

    That's the problem with modern day players. I never had this problem with Tommy Smyth

    Oooh Zaha and his pathetic fans are scared of big boys getting near him.

    hang on, I havent even considered this as a possibility. Surely the man city match proved he was saving players for the cup match...

    Oh god, please dont say that putting deulofeu and deeney on the bench was just some hairbrained tactical scheme that he thought would see off man city.

    There's a weekend off next week, so I can't see Javi putting out anything other than our strongest team other than the possibility of Gomes starting.

    It does seem like the CP fans need a whole bunch of other things to occupy their minds when they go to watch their team to cover for the lack of entertainment.
    I hope Gino has factored in the lost revenues from pie and coffee sales. I'm fully expecting us to have to sell Doucs this summer to stay afloat. Worrying times.

    Good lord! This has to be the most pathetic thing I've seen. They are aware we play in yellow I presume. How old are these people? 8? 9? Are these the pillocks that dress in black? I bet Troy and Harry the Hornet are quivering in their boots. If Zaha had a brain he would make light of the Harry diving incident and go and dive in front of him but there is a minor issue with that plan

    The extra 2500 tickets they say they should have is probably the same as the number of away fans that can't see the whole pitch at Selhurst Park. At least we're not charging these people to not to be able to see the game

    It really is going to be blowing a gale tomorrow. How windy does it have to be before they consider abandoning/postponing a game ??

    We played against Stortford last Sunday in the middle of 'Gareth'.
    However one of their/there (if yaw from Thornton Heath) was quite rotund, so she wasn't taken in a gust, to the cricket square.

    You do have to wonder how high a percentage of the sex offenders register is made up of Palace fans.

    What would they buy in the ground apart from a drink (or 6!)?

    Not sure I'd be in a great hurry to try the catering anyway and don't think they are the sort to spend £3.50 on a programme with 3-5 pages on their team.

    How often is alcohol not served in the Family stand - never been in there but presumed it was quite often due to safety reasons?

    In the last 6 Palace games I have been to we have won 0, drawn 2 and lost 4 (0% win ratio).
    In the last 6 Palace games I have not been to we have won 4, drawn 1 and lost 1 (67% win ratio).

    I am not going tomorrow.

    See you all at Wembley.

    'Pride Of Thornton Heath' may have been more appropriate.

    The away end is always dry at our place. They know that yet they're still winding themselves up about it.

    3000 yellow cards?? That's so funny.

    It shows how upset they must be. I suppose these fans put the Cry in Crystal Palace.

    After seeing all the empty seats in the away end I vote we sign "did you come in a taxi" and "is that all you take away"

    "Crystal Palace" is in fact an anagram of "a shower of bastards"

    We had to face Palace at some point, better here than Wembley.

    Bring it on!

    I'm in VRS4 but I'm guessing there'll be no booze in there either.

    I'd suggest using makaton. That seems to be the most popular signing in current use. (Funnily enough a certain 'Mr Tumble' uses it on CBeebies.)

    Palace’s ‘fanatics’ have posted two of the funniest things I’ve seen in some time yet still have the audacity to claim it is us that stoked up this ‘rivalry’.

    They might have a large catchment area but all they seem to have caught is a complete bunch of weirdo cry-babies who are refusing to spend £3 on a programme, all because they don’t understand how segregation works.

    Just the thought of them all at home now furiously polishing their **** masks ready for spending 90 mins crying about a bloke who breakdances in a hornet costume tomorrow...

    3-0. Light work.

    I'm trying to work out where they get the "2,500 Palace fans who WFC have prevented from attending"....
