Old signed shirt
My brother in law was given a signed Palace shirt but has no idea who it's signed by. I've attached a pic- looks like its 98-99 away but any idea who any of the signatures might be?
Best Gigs of 2015
I was going to add this to albums but thought it'd be interesting to see how others rated bands they saw live this year though a not too busy one for me. Listing them has made me realise that i've not really seen many new bands (to me) which i plan to do next year starting with Wolf Alice.

Goalkeeper from Hearts mid-90s
Bit random but can anyone on here remember the name of the reserve 'keeper we signed from Hearts in summer of '94 I think after winning title? Or maybe we were linked and didn't sign him.
First name was Craig or Stuart I think..Thanks !!

Crystal ball v Chelsea (h) sunday 13.30
I think we're going to need the Selhurst atmosphere cranked up to the rafters for this one, obviously missing three key players but hopefully that will be enough to drive the team home

Pre Chelsea: Press Conference
- team news - much as it was against Swansea - no-one coming back
- on losing Cabaye - go into the game with a number of players - going to have to lean on our fighting qualities - wanna hold on to our fifth place
- unrealistic to win with the bodies we have out - they look more in control and did so against Man Utd - Chelsea are favourites for the game
- on Patrick Bamford - made a slight error after the game and was a bit emotional - he has addressed that - he has had every chance here - he has learned from the experience - this learning curve for him was a learning curve but nothing to suggest he wont make the step up
- he didnt get game times cos we kept winning with the balance of the side
- no regrets about the whole episode - i like him and he is a prospect 0- his game time was disappointing for him -I get that - now he needs to find game time elsewhere
- he has nice attributes as a person and would be great to see him succeed
- on transfers - we have made phone calls this week - need to do business to keep us moving along - we have had an unbelievable year and dont wanna rest on our laurels
- looking at my injury list would like a a striker
- on year in charge - results have gone very well - have bonded well with the chairman - we have new investment at the club and a fan base that is second to none - long may that continue
- we are under a little pressure in terms of offensive players - if we could get someone in for the fa cup that would be great
- on chelsea - there has been a kind of ok - lets get back to being a good side - the foundation of chelsea looks more settled
- on pressure on players - chelsea have experienced that and it takes getting used to but they have great professional players - they know they let jose down
- chelsea not in a relegation battle - they are too good to go down

Discussion: FFP Restrictions
Couldn't see a thread on this in here or in GPD. It seems likely that our main budget restriction will not be available funds but breaching the FFP cap. Does anyone actually know or can make an educated guess how much we can spend before breaching it (obviously not including player sales)?
Palace to finish above Leicester - do you make this bet?
Simple enough.
It's New Year's Eve so the natural thing to do here in Hull is to argue (friendlyish) with a bloke in Leeds who happens to be a Leicester fan, to while away the last few hours of the year.
Leicester are clearly on the slide (?) and Palace clearly on the up (?) so Palace will finish higher than Leicester.
I can see where this is going with the guy no doubt saying 'put your money where your mouth is,' which I'll probably do.
The question is, would you make this bet?

In the event of a tie at the end the most wins wins, if that's level then the most seconds etc, if still a tie then most points in the year is probably the next best way

Rules are as follows
1 Every player has 200 points to bet with in the first round.
2 Each separate bet made is 10 points meaning players have 20 bets during the first 20 days. Maximum bet on a single market is 10 points, same rule applies for identical multis (basically no duplicate bets though you can do a team A, team B double on one bet and then add team C for a treble in another bet)
3 In the second round the 4* finalists all start by carrying forward 25% of their score from the first round added to the 150 points that can bet used in the second round. The person who qualifies for the final with the most points also gets an additional 10pt bet. (*if the number of participants gets to 16 or more, then a 5th finalist place will be added and then one more for every 5 players on top of that).
4 Betting Masters, first group stages runs from 0000 on the first of the month (standard UK time) to 2359hrs on the 20th of the month. Then the top four* posters come together in a mini league from there on until the end of the month.
Final bet settlement must occur before 2359 on the last day of the month.
5 Naturally the winner is the person with the highest score at the end of the last day of the month.
6 Scoring consists of total winnings and is inclusive of 10 point stake i.e. someone bets on a 6/4 horse and it wins their score becomes 25 (15 points profits plus the 10 pt stake) There is no score for any bets not used. Losing bets are scored as zero, not -10.
Any bet from an exchange bookie will have a 4% commission (on the winnings), if nothing else is explicitly stated in the post.
7 Players must quote where they're getting their prices.
8 Singles and upwards accepted.
9 For boxed multis and bets such as Yankees, each separate bet within the bet counts as separate and will cost 10pts per bet. e.g. ten trebles from five selections will use up 100 points.
10. E/W bets are counted as two bets in the masters, which means 10 points x 2
11. For tracking purposes, players are requested to put the outcome of their bets on the post for all events other than European soccer/tennis.
12. Where possible players are requested to put down a running total of their bets in their posts, although I'll also try and produce rolling league tables where possible.
13. After a bet has been posted up, one is not allowed to edit it..
14. The bets must be possible to do in real life, meaning for example that if you got a multi, all the odds have to come from 1 bookmaker. You can’t shop around for the highest odds and put them together. "Special promotion" type bets are not allowed though BOG (Best Odds Guaranteed) are.
15. Bets must be placed at odds of 1/10 (or 1.1 in decimal) or higher
16. Any Draw No Bet bets where the result is a push will always have the bet settled as void, never 10pts. Any asian handicap bet where the result is a push (in full) will have the bet settled as void. Any asian handicap where half of the stake is returned will be marked down as 5pts with the remainder of the Asian handicap settled as a win or a loss (this is applicable for asian handicaps such as 2.25 or -2, -2.5 etc)
17. In the event that a player is not sure if their bet will finish in time, before midnight on the 20th or midnight for qualifying midnight on the final day of the month for the final, they can make a provisional bet or bets which then become actual bets only if their original selection(s) finishes at 12.01am or after

Suggestion: Stephan El Shaarawy
He is currently at Monaco. If he plays one more game they have to pay AC 14 million or something which they can't afford so he is on the bench until he moves.
This means we can get him on a loan deal. He was rated really highly at one point but kind of lost his way. Maybe find it with us. If not then just a loan deal so no big loss.

New Palace fan/dog... Name needed!
So we've just picked up a 9 week old black miniature poodle.
But we can't agree a name.
Please share any ideas. Palace related or otherwise. We make the final decision tomorrow.

I hate New Year's Eve
Am I the only one who can't stand this event?Feels like I'm the insane one as nobody else seems to share this opinion. I can't think of a more frustrating night out.Everywhere is overpriced, overcrowded and almost impossible to get anywhere via any mode of transport
Might have an early night then go out in the morning when 90% of the population are asleep/hungover.
Yours truly

'Silent bomber' couple jailed for London terror plot
To view the link you have to Register or Login
How dumb are these people ? I mean when you read the details about how they were caught then it proves they were beyond stupid.
Please do not think I am against the sentences they have received. It seems clear to me that if you go to all the trouble of acquiring the necessary chemicals and even carry out test explosions, then you have to be deemed serious in your intent and thus deserve locking up for the terms handed down but I almost want to scream at them for being so utterly moronic.
I mean, FFS, if you are plotting to be a terrorist do you really called yourself 'The Silent Bomber' and then ask on Twitter about what you should be targeting along with using profile pictures of Jihadi John ?
These people are so dumb that you almost, but not quite, actually pity them.

Rumour: Italian bid for Yannick
Several websites reporting that a 27 million euro bid has been submitted for Yannick, Inter and Roma apparently both interested. Hopefully just speculation but wouldn't be surprising.
Seasons Greetings etc
I dont usually start threads here but one thing really has affected me over this holiday break where we make new years resolutions and wish peace and good will to all men etc, but a work colleague I who I used to work with when I started in the particular business I work in over 20 years and who I still see on a regular basis and who I would describe as a good decent man, he kind of took me under his wing and really helped me make my way all those years ago, he was a hard,firm but fair man, I found out a couple of days ago his youngest daughter was murdered on Christmas eve, she was 23, a teacher, I remember her when she was a toddler, I feel an immense feeling of emptiness, sadness and when things maybe aren't going well for one reason or another just think the trauma that this good family are going through at this particular time, what an evil way to end a young woman's life who like me all those years back was just starting to make her way in life, unbelievable.
Dwight Gayle's Return?
mardi 29 décembre 2015
When will Dwight be back?
I hope he can get a run of games with Wickham out. A real opportunity for him if be can get healthy.
And it sure seems like a lot of guys miss months with hamstring injuries. Is football that tough on hamstrings. it must be, but in American sport guys rarely miss 4 weeks with a muscle injury. Half the Palace attacking squad is often out with muscle issues.

DIY Advice required (painting preparation)
We need some info/advice for an ongoing problem we have in our hallway. There are a few patches on the walls where the paintwork keeps flaking away. They are in various places, upstairs and down, on internal and external walls. The last time I decorated I rubbed these patches back to the plaster but we still have the same problem. Can anyone recommend a pre treatment/undercoat product we can use before re-painting.

Rumour: Charlie Taylor, LB-Leeds
From Dominic Fifield/Stuart James's Bamford article in today's Guardian:
To view the link you have to Register or Login
"However, Bamford’s departure may now force Palace into the market for a forward in the January window. They have joined Leicester in monitoring the availability of Khouma Babacar at Fiorentina, retain an interest in Charlie Austin at Queens Park Rangers but would most likely be priced out of a move for Marseille’s Michy Batshuayi. Palace are also interested in the young Leeds left-back, Charlie Taylor, who is entering the last 18 months of his contract at Elland Road."

Was impressed with him yesterday. Pardew talking up his performance after the game. Wouldn't be surprised to see us go for him again in the summer.
Suggestion: Morgan Sanson
Young attacking midfield that features in a few players to watch lists would be an upgrade on Punch who I believe has been our weakest link this season
Plays for Montpellier and France u21
Would have Cabaye to help him settle
Can imagine they would want a few quid but when you're 5th in the prem and want to maintain we can't be tight!

I think we've been linked to him before and they rejected a £10M bid in the summer from Norwich, but reading recent comments seems Wolves may cash-in now in the Jan window.
Scored 9 league goals so far this season in an average Wolves team
22yo Strong and pacey, could fit our system well

Player of the (half) season
So we have reached the half way point, who do people think has been the player of the (half) season so far? For me Delaney is that player, keeps proving people wrong...but would like to know others thoughts!
Treatment of Zaha ...
I know Wilf was again the target for the opposition, whose only gameplan was to kick lumps out of him, especially with Bolasie out, but I'm starting to have some sympathy with him when he suddenly looks to react.
I know Jedi and Damo normally run in to calm him down so he doesn't get worked up, but when is enough enough?
Why should he keep just taking it, when he is cynically being hacked down all the time?
I'm not suggesting he go out and thump the guy, but I think he should be allowed to retaliate and let the opposition know that he's not going to get away with it later in the game.
Pele's career was ended by cynical challenges that went unpunished and I fear Wilf's career could be seriously hampered sooner or later by one foul too many.
Thoughts?

Chelsea forward option
Clearly we are struggling to find a decent forward at the moment with so many injuries and so few decent options.
I would suggest that unless we buy someone real quick that we play 4-2-4-0 and get the midfield to run at them.
They will not like it if we run at them and with players overlapping at the same time we could easily get in behind them.
It can't be any worse than the last two games!

Ticket machines in Holmesdale Road
Just wondering if today, being Boxing Day carried over bank holiday, whether we have to pay for parking in Holmesdale Road? The Croydon Council site says all bank holidays bar Xmas Day, Boxing Day and one or two others, but as Boxing day was Saturday do they consider today to be that bank holiday? I don't trust my luck not paying only to find I've got a ticket.

Lets all Guffaw at the Gunners ( Arsenal's delusional grandeur )
samedi 26 décembre 2015
Arsenal just got slaughtered by an off form team that couldn't buy a win for love nor money recently.
Wenger is blaming the referee as usual.
Arsenal - finished 4th in the League table in 6 the recent 9 seasons....and yet they still bang on about being a world class club with elite aspirations. And so, when ManUre, Chelscum and Liverpool all play below par...do Arsenal glide effortlessly into the Prem topspot ? Nope, we leave that honour to some small club nobody knows.
Silverware ? note for gunner fans, the FA cup has been won in recent years by Portsmouth, Wigan etc with the runners up including Hull, Villa and Milwall...ie a mickey mouse competition only slightly better than the Johnson Paints trophy.
Arsenal : silent stadium , empty trophy cabinet ( since the airing of the final episode of 'Friends' ) , not really a big club, not a small club, ....as far as Shakesperean silverware chase goes..."I do follow here in the chase not like a hound that hunts, but one that fills up the cry"

I know this is slightly tragic but my friend and I are constantly debating football and are disappointed with the mainstream coverage of football in terms of punditry, commentary and the papers. We feel so much bias occurs because of reputations.

Wayne Hennessy is Underrated
I feel very confident with him in goal, and Im not ashamed to say more than with Speroni since we have been in the top flight. He is growing into a solid number one and I think will be for a few years to come, his current stats dont lie:
This season:
League games 12, Goals Conceded 9, Clean Sheets 5.
He has only let in more than one goal in a game once against West Ham.
I know he conceded 5 against Man City in the cup but he was left exposed where we went all guns blazing.
HENNO!

Murray is a rival player now
I don't understand what I keep reading, I even heard it on the FYP podcast, that if we are 4 nil up we would hope Glenn Murray scores.
I dont get this at all, sure I would clap his name and have respect for him during the match, but I would never be happy someone scoring against Palace, it just shows me how wimpy sentimental some people are and how they view things rather than the big picture. I hope Glenn Murray misses all his chances today.

Club Shop Exchange Policy?
Bought my Dad a palace jumper for Christmas but it's a size too small.
Can't find any info on the exchange policy. Does anybody know what it is?
Would it be worth my while turning up to the shop before the Swansea game, jumper in hand? Or would I need to package and post it back? Or am I stuck with it?
Please advise!
P.S. Merry Christmas!

The Santa conspiracy
It is one of our societies last redeeming features: the way all adults - without exception - indulge in the whole Santa exists game, and do it so convincingly from a kids perspective. (I do hope that all reading this have come to that realisation already...apologies to Gor Blimey and Mat ov for ruining your Christmas).
But it is a pretty amazing thing isn't it? There's been no meeting or letter spelling out the rules. It's not as if the Government have made it law or that you'll get an on the spot fine if you dare spill the beans to the nearest kid; and yet we all partake in this conspiracy. Can't think of anything else in life where there is an unsaid consensus among all adults. I'd dare say even a psychotic mass murderer wouldn't dream of spilling the beans to an unsuspecting child.
I know there is a train of thought among some that this white lie is the start of a lifetime of mistrust once the penny drops, but I actually think as white lies go, it's pretty great.
As an aside: a little Christmas eve story from the additional needs school I work at: every year the primary end of the school have Santa arrive after their Christmas lunch and hand each and every child a present. This year we were halfway through when one of the secondary boys crashed through the doors and started pointing and screaming at Santa: 'YOU'RE A FAKE! YOU'RE A FAKE!' and was unceremoniously bundled back out of the door by a couple of staff members. :D
Any other stories around this subject. Have any of you accidentally spilled the beans to your kids or little sibling?

I know there is a train of thought among some that this white lie is the start of a lifetime of mistrust once the penny drops, but I actually think as white lies go, it's pretty great.
As an aside: a little Christmas eve story from the additional needs school I work at: every year the primary end of the school have Santa arrive after their Christmas lunch and hand each and every child a present. This year we were halfway through when one of the secondary boys crashed through the doors and started pointing and screaming at Santa: 'YOU'RE A FAKE! YOU'RE A FAKE!' and was unceremoniously bundled back out of the door by a couple of staff members. :D
Any other stories around this subject. Have any of you accidentally spilled the beans to your kids or little sibling?
Seasons greetings.
Happy Christmas to one and all, whatever club you support.
Hope you all have a good one. :p
Wigman.

Merry Christmas 2015
It's three minutes after midnight here and my Santa duties are done. Merry Christmas all.
He knows when you've been good or bad...
He's made his list. He's checked it twice. Have you been a good boy/girl this year and so are on the nice list? Or are you on 2015s naughty list (perhaps, to take an entirely fictional example, for getting your cock out at a works Christmas party this getting yourself banned from the local for a year and only a lump of coal to look forward to from Santa).
Feel free to suggest other BBSers for addition to either list, though you can only vote for yourself...

Switching iPad to a new iTunes library
I want to connect my iPad to a new laptop (both old and new devices are MacBooks). I understand that when I do so, my iPad will be 'wiped' of media and I'll then be able to add media from my new laptop.
My question is, specifically which media gets wiped? iTunes media, or all media?
Will I lose photos, cached videos on other apps, 'home videos', cached Spotify data etc?
Thanks

DVLA serious question
Probably gonna get loads of abuse for this query,...but here goes
Sold my old heap of a car 2 weeks ago to 2 Romanian chaps who were going to take the car 'home'. I couldn't find the blue 'registered keeper' document, but the guys paid cash and said it didn't matter as they were 'exporting' the car on the 14 December.
I filled in the blue 'notification of permanent export' slip and sent that to DVLA, but I don't know the Romanian guys names or addresses.
So, do I tell DVLA what I've done ?
Or do I keep sctumm ?
What are the pitfalls/benefits/liabilities of either action?
One of the Romanian guys was nearly 7 foot tall, and the other one was built like Giant Haystacks

Best Free email provider
So I need a new email provider. What do people recommend?
As a user I like lots of storage to keep useful old stuff in categories.
talktalk: Been using for years and like the layout, but in the past they deleted me without warning and I lost lots of stuff. Got compensation but I can't afford for it to happen again.
Gmail: switched to this and I like the link to calendar but it doesn't seem designed with the hoarder in mind - no ability to create sub-folders is a problem.
What others are out there that get thumbs up? Outlook? Microsoft? Yahoo?

We usually come to blows over trivial pursuit and a mass team quiz.
Last year we had 15 minutes to write every country in Europe, this year I have decided it will be Africa.
Seems a good thread to ask for some A-Z topics? Exhausted our list of usual ones throughout the year.

Pardew v Pulis v Mourinho
Ok, this is just a bit of fun but could also potentially make an interesting snapshot of Palace/BBS history. Who would you prefer to have as the current Palace manager? (and imagine answering the same question this time last year!)
Power of attorney question
My mum's brother died intestate earlier this year in Ireland. A solicitor in Ireland who is administering the will has asked her to sign a power of attorney form in order to proceed. As far as I can see this would give the solicitor complete access to her financial accounts and records. Is power of attorney really necessary in this situation?

January transfers 2016
The transfer window is almost open again and some clubs have already agreed transfers.
Juan Iturbe had a medical with Watford but is now in talks with Bournemouth. Roma spent €22 million on him in 2014. :eek:

Former Liverpool player Suso will join Genoa on loan from Milan.

Managers and 'Losing the dressing Room'
Holloway told journalists ''i haven't lost the dressing room, its down the corridor and to the left'' or something similar.
Jose 'lost the dressing room' ie the support of his own players. This phenomenon seems to happen every five minutes at clubs like Real Madrid. Purple Nose Ferguson's adage was ''its my way or the highway'' and never lost the dressing room. What does it all mean ? how to prevent it ? Why does it happen ?

Identity Theft - Help !
One for anyone who is going through or has the same thing happening . I need some advice. Started 6 years ago a person who we know used my wifes maiden name and address to get some goods from a catalogue company. Some months latter we get a debt collection agency requesting payment, explained to them never had any goods. Found out that the goods were delivered to the person who used the name at her then address. Told the debt collection agency all of this . Never heard anything else for about a year new debt collection agency contact us go through the same thing. This happens for the next three years.
Yesterday we signed up for Experian I am fine, wife is not , it appears after we moved a debt collection agency solicitors Bryan Carters have a CCJ issued against her maiden name in 2014, through Northampton County Court. A call to court who tell us its against another catalogue company. We call said solicitors explain the situation give them the name and new address of the person involved. Lodge a complaint against the association of debt to Experian. Now waiting to here.
Is there anything else to do I have the fear that with the solicitors having the new address and a CCJ in the wifes maiden name, but wrong address the next thing will be a baliff turning up on the doorstep.

46 Years And Counting
46 years!
46 years and counting.
I'm a very young looking 51 year old. Immature for me age too.
Tall for me height though.
But young looking nonetheless.
46 years. You get less for murder these days. And rightly so!
46 years out of 51 eh?
I surely merit some kind of award.
Well I think so.
Suggestions?

Lift to Bournemouth offered from Bucks/Northants/Oxon
This is a travel-only offer for our Boxing Day fixture in Bournemouth. I cannot offer you a ticket.
If you want to go to this game and live somewhere reasonably close to the Northampton - Milton Keynes - Buckingham - Bicester area, then I can offer you a lift in my car to our Boxing Day clash -v- Bournemouth, and back of course.
There is sufficient room for 2 adults, at a squeeze.
Previous successful CPFC Boxing Day and Easter excursions have included Cardiff City and Blackpool.
Send me a PM with your location asap to organise, if interested.

Discussion: The 25 and fringe players - who needs to go and come in for January?
Looking at the current squad of 25 plus our fringe players who do we need to say goodbye to now, in six months time, and to get in? Dave just closed a bumped thread and the lead up to the transfer window is going to cause mayhem on here
GK: Hennessey no 1, McCarthy long term backup & Speroni short term as in final 6 months of contract (eventual new young keeper in summer)
RB: Ward no 1 /Kelly capable backup (in emergency Ward can cover LB)
CB: Delaney no 1 but probably 18 months then would be a great coach/ Hangeland capable backup but likely final six months?
CB: Dann no 1 /need one young CB for long term Delaney succession and back up as only really Brede at right level - sell Mariappa, if QPR interested, part of an Austin deal along with Campbell?
LB: Souaré no 1/ Need back up as cover very tight (Santon?) - Sell or give away Hunt and Fryers, neither of whom will ever make the team (how fast will Scales come along?)
CM: Cabaye no 1/ Jedinak capable backup for certain games - sell Johnny Williams who can’t get into NF team regularly (if money is right for Jedi to go we need more cover, otherwise great club captain)
CM: McArthur no 1/ Ledley capable backup
RW: Zaha no 1/ Lee Chung-yong capable backup
LW: Bolasie no 1 / Sako capable backup (also young players to come through)
ACM/hole: Puncheon or Chamakh as joint no 1 (last six months for Cham unless injuries clear and he gets another year?)/Mutch back up
CF: Wickham no 1 / Chamakh backup but preferably new player as injuries bound to happen (need to end the loan deal for Bamford and possibly loan somebody else, get Campbell off the books anyway we can to save 35K, sell or keep Gayle but we need a goal scorer as a loan or new buy)
Realistically, as we all agree, the Wickham alternative is required as well as a succession plan and cover at centre back, with left back cover required but not so urgent.
Gayle and Jedi could raise decent money but also offer us something (Gayle can be on the wing if Sako is injured) - others suggested to go will free up wages and are never going to be part of a top four team.
We can loan 2 if Bamford goes, but they need to be players with a view to 'try before you buy' rather than other peoples potential future players.

Graham Hunter interview with Super Al
dimanche 20 décembre 2015
A really interesting podcast interview between Graham Hunter and Alan Pardew that is just over an hour long. Perfect to stick on during your commute.
Interesting that he talks about the academy setup and how they know it isn't good enough at the moment infrastructure wise. Glad to hear that there are plans for it to be brought in line with the updated first team improvements in the coming years.

In this one, Alan Pardew was brilliant on some very big moments in his career, the kind that can go either way and result in very different outcomes. Like, what if Steven Gerrard hadn't hit one of the all-time FA Cup final goals against Pardew's West Ham in 2006 (there's also great insight into how that goal happened)? Or how does the Newcastle United story pan out if Hatem Ben Arfa scores for 2-0 against Benfica in the Europa League quarter-final? There's also loads here about his origins in non-league, man-marking Gazza, the future for Crystal Palace and much more. Alan was a generous host at the Palace training ground, and gave us an open and insightful interview. I hope you like it. |
'Scavenger Season' the Premier League Form Table
Scavengers on the take...........the form table...read it and weep you 'big club' financial liabilities.....this is the year of the 'scavenger season' ....the foxes, the eagles, the hornets....all known to take advantage of whatever easy pickings are available.
When a dopey slow easy whale goes by....we will have a pick or three. Foxes root in dustbins and are doing far better than many glorious but endangered species. Hornets feed off discarded mars bars...and grow fat. Eagles can get a bit of free carrion from a dead one like the Liver Birds....easy pickings. Even the magpies and the Canary's are pecking eyeballs from some complacent big fish.
2015/16 the best season in ages. Bournemouth in the top four ? surely they have an eagle hidden somewhere in there ?
the top four teams in Form Table are small clubs......Scavenger Season.

Fitbit or similar fitness wrist things
My missus goes jogging and dropped this one in as a Christmes present. It all seems a bit trendy and expensive for what it does and wondered if there are much better ones available? Normally with these things you are actually paying for the software service though, that whole health tracking malarkey.
Anyone use one of these things and can give some feedback??

Suggested Team and Formation For: Bournemouth
Wickham and Bolasie I think will miss this game, Wickham had what looked like a hamstring injury and Bolasie hobbled around last 5-10 minutes
So with that in mind
..........................Hennessey
Ward..........Dann.........Delaney............Soaure
..................Ledley.........Cabaye....................
Zaha...................Lee.....................Puncheon
...........................Chamakh
Mcarthur looked a bit flat and with 2 games in 3 days coming up I think we need to rotate the midfielders, Ledley to play in the away game and McArthur at home.
Lee and Puncheon interchanging.

We've got 11 away wins this year, or 13 if you include Dover and Southampton in the FA Cup.

Mopeds of the late 70's and early 80's
I am 54 now but when I was a teen, 16 the right of passage to getting driving on the road was owning a "sports" moped. It had to have pedals but it could easily reach 50 mph if you laid prone over the tank!!!! It was all about who could go fastest!
We spent every hour sticking sports exhausts on and deafening the local community.
The choice wasn't only down to the 4 Japanese manufacturers. There was the Yamaha FS1-E aka the fizzy, the Suzuki Ap50, Honda SS50, Kawasaki but I can't remember the model number? Was it the 105e. There was a great debate about which was best. Until someone nicknamed animal pitched up on his Puch GPS!!!
If you wanted to be a bit more exotic there was the Puch Grand Prix, or the Italian Gilera's or in my case the Malaguti.
After that was a step up to the world of 250's or 400's, in my case an RD 250 with a coffin tank, white with red stripes. Popping wheelies like a lunatic:D
This all went on in the downtown streets of Beckenham.
But 38 years on my two best mates from meeting in those days, are still my best mates after all that time. We all have families, only one still rides a bike, so it isn't only bikes that have kept us together.
There must be other fizzy owners or riders of other makes of mopeds still about there who remember those days?

Injuries following Stoke game
Bit concerned with injuries following today's game
Wickham and by some accounts Bolasie to add to Cabaye in the injury list...
Does anyone have any insight on how long they will each be out for? In the congested Xmas period it won't be ideal if they are out for long...

Atmosphere at Stoke
I thought their fans were supposed to be one of the most vocal in the league? The only noise they made all day was the consistent moaning over literally everything. I guess their manager has rubbed off on them all. Bunch of miserable bastards
Our support sounded loud all game long and deserved to celebrate like maniacs at the end
Well done to our away support:p

Contract law advice
Hi fountain of knowledgeeeeees,
I was hoping to get advice from someone that understands contract law. It's all rather annoying - I run a media company and outsource to suppliers for work we can't do in house, in this case, search engine optimization and google adwords mgt. The problem I've run into is that I've emailed him saying that from January we're going to be bringing things in house but we'll honour the remaining contracts (there are four clients with a finish date of between Jan and June 2016.) I hadn't heard from him but then one of our clients forwarded an email from him to them saying that his company had decided not to carry on with working with us and that although I'm good at client relations he feels he hasn't been able to do a good a job but if he'd had access to them directly it would have been a lot better and would they meet him for a coffee in January.
Very underhand and trying to paint a picture that we're the rubbish ones. Luckily our clients are very loyal.
He classes us a reseller and when we started to work together he emailed over his client confidentiality contract. This has never been signed by either of us but it states that he can't approach our clients for a minimum of 6 months after a contract ends. It also says that as we're 'white labelling' or reselling his product (his product isn't tangible) that he will never let our clients know that he is a separate company.
So he's caught himself out there. On the back of this I want to cancel all outstanding work with immediate effect as I just don't trust him, don't want him to have access to our clients adwords accounts and am nervous he'll try and muddy our reputation.
Another point to add is that 9 months after sending the original client confidentiality contract he, out of the blue, sent an email saying 'oh I haven't sent you our t's and c's.' He had signed them but I never did and refused to as they were written with strict cancellation policy which I wouldn't enforce our clients on so wasn't comfortable signing them. We've never worked to them and in the terms it states these t's and c's are only valid if both parties sign it.
I'd like to send him a cease and desist (i think) but am nervous it could get expensive as he'll counter with 'I haven't broken our agreement' and it could all get messy.
I'll gladly pay for advice just unsure of best options and the bbs is always helpful in life predicaments!

Edit in of goals:
Edit in of goals:
Our best premier league goal.
Since returning to the top flight was that the best goal we have scored.
Was Yannick injured ?
Being a typical Palace fan. Instead of fully enjoying Lee's goal I noticed (And others have ) Yannick seemed to pull up injured after the goal any news ?
Have I got this right?
So we win with a cracker, 6th in the Premier League
Just announced huge investment to upgrade Selhurst.
Brighton get smashed 3 - 0 at home to drop out of the automatic places.
Millwall get smashed 3- 0 at home
Not that I care but Charlton got smashed 4 - 0 away from home
And our mates Dundee won 4 - 0
What a great start to Xmas.
Thank you forever CPFC2010 :love:

Players disinterested and underperforming on the pitch
we all remember roberto mancini telling carlos Tevez to get warmed up and Tevez replying '£v%$£off'' or however you say that in argentine.
we remember Sol Campbell walking out during an Arsenal game.
and so the latest saga is the rumour about the Chelsea squad deciding not to bother to earn the megabucks the payroll staff pay them every week. Just casually jogging up and down and almost leaning against the goalposts for a fag break.
Forget about drunken parties, training-ground bustups, driving like a maniac, sex scandals and other footballers nonsense.....
why and how can the best paid employees on the planet underperform on the job ? The question is not about the likes of Joey barton throwing a wobbler and going nuts, the question is about the 'couldnt be bothered'' attitude.
any thoughts ?

Much appreciated the advice.

What does the BBS make of this?
Seen a lot of hubbub on social media about this and it all seems utterly bizarre. I think it too easy to claim 'money buys freedom' here as it was a jury decision and an acquittal was reached in 30 minutes. I, therefore, struggle to believe the acquittal was made that quickly, so resoundingly by a jury on the basis of such an incredulous 'excuse'.
Surely there must have been a procedural error or significant flaws in the prosecutions version of events to deem it rape 'beyond reasonable doubt'.
Bizarre one though!

Why no more 'A Palace minute' ?
Well I dare say the joys of a 7 month old daughter is taking up a considerable amount of his time, but BUBBS11 has also been using his creative talents for a very good cause.
If you can, either to help the school he works in do the redevelopment work they desperately need to do or just simply as a means to say thank you to him for the pleasure he has given us all for his 'A Palace minute' series please donate if you can.
This is something that is very close to his heart, and will make him, the School, the parents and most importantly the kids very happy if your contribution, however small helps them make their target. (Also may shame the bastard into turning his talents back to doing another 'A Palace minute' :))

Suggestion: Moussa Dembele
would love to see Dembele for us.
Quick powerful and can play/competition for a struggling Puncheon, when he was playing for Fulham he was a beast and still only about 28
Reckon spuds would do a deal as well, as long as Bolasie is not involved!

Suggested Team and Formation For: Stoke City
........................Hennessey
Ward. .........Dann. ........Delaney. .........Souare
Zaha. .......McArthur. .....Cabaye. .......Puncheon
....................Wickham. .....Bolasie
4-4-2 same team and formation that was good enough to beat both Southampton and Newcastle or do we bring Ledley/ Jedi into midfield to combat Stokes front 3 players ?

Boilers

So recently brought a new house.
The heating/hot water for the house is powered by a pretty ancient and inefficient back boiler. It was always the plan to replace in a few years once we could afford. However it was smelling a fuming/gasey so partner called the smell gas number. Bloke came said it was dangerous and turned off all gas supply to the house and said we need to get an engineer out to sort. He didnt say or really know what the problem was.
I know these things are pretty expensive to repair, and think British Gas charge £200 just for a couple of hours work, let alone difficult to find parts for back boilers.
Are we better off just getting a new combi boiler? If so any suggestions to which one?
Or could it just be small issue that could be sorted without breaking the bank?
Any general advice much appreciated.

Phase 1 Clinical Trial Cancer treatment - would you say yes or no?
Not the cheeriest of themes for the festive season but I do need to ask if anyone has had any experience of clinical research into new treatments for terminal illness?
My mum has stage 4 (terminal) cancer, as I have mentioned before. She has been asked to participate in a phase 1 research programme where she will be administered the new drug/treatment alongside chemo,
Most sites say some people will benefit with phase 1 treatments, thats the good news but many won't.
So... Worth the risk or best to avoid?
Thanks in advance for any help

2. How can our wage bill be higher than West Ham's
3. We actually play decent football, we're not a hoof ball side like the article suggests
Other than that, its fab

Alternative Careers for Sepp Blatter
Lets face it, Sepp is a busted flush in the world of football. But seemingly the 79 year old is convinced that he still has much to offer the world and is still volunteering his services to the great and good.
so, in the spirit of Christmas, lets help him with some career advice. What jobs, and why ?
For openers :
The hand-car-wash just near the old goat-house pub, beside the bridge that goes over the railway north of Norwood Junction. They have a 'help wanted' sign and i think its perfect for Sepp. The job would include getting your hands dirty, cleaning up a mess and receiving payments in cash. With the added benefit of being able to hear the Selhurst roar on a match day in spite of Sepp being banned from all football related activities.
what others ?

Is it possible to fall in love with a friend, however long you've been friends?
Is it possible to fall in love with a friend, however long you've been friends?
Been friends with a girl, within a wider, stable friendship group, for 14 years now. Always loved her to bits, as a friend, and always got on very well together, but recently my feelings towards her seem to have changed. Not saying it is love, but I'm certainly feeling confused right now.
I went out with her friend, also part of the same friendship group, but that finished 11 years ago, and she is now engaged, so that's fairly irrelevant right?
It doesn't help that she's going abroad for three months (maybe more) with yet another member of the friendship group next week. That clearly heightens things, but I feel so sad that I won't see her for a while.

Players and Social Media
mardi 15 décembre 2015
I am sure there has been a thread about this not too long ago, but I saw this in the Metro this morning, and I can't help thinking that players really need to start engaging their brains before they respond on things like Twitter etc. :eek: I am sure his parent club Cardiff will also be highly unimpressed by his actions.

European Dream Aways
Yes I know we'll lose several players to injury, yes I know we've still not got the requisite '40 points,' and yes I know our strikers haven't scored yet.....
....but, and a little bit of fun here (for what is the point of supporting a football team if one cannot dream?), where and against whom would your dream Palace away trips in Europe be?
Let's assume we finish 5th. Therefore stating BARCELONA BABY is not allowed; you need to be a little more cognitive than that. ;)
Personally, I'm voting for anywhere with cheap flights and a new passport stamp.

Third kit needed for Stoke match?
I was wondering if we'll use a third kit for the Stoke away match?
Last year, we were in the yellow kit; year before, the evil sash.
Now when Sunderland played us, they had to wear their green kit; so with Stoke at home, what shall we wear?
- Home kit - unlikely, with a red clash.
- Away kit - unlikely with a white clash.
Do we even have a third kit this year?! :eek:

In the past Yannick Bolasie, Marouane Chamakh and others have faced Twitter (all of which you can watch on YouTube), now it's the manager's turn.
If you want Super Al to answer your question, send it to @CPFC using the hashtag #PardsVsTwitter and it may get picked. It'll be filmed this week (and released over Christmas), so the sooner you send them in the better. :p

Booking help
Hi - I am looking to take my Dad (a lifelong palace fan) to a match for his 70th early next year; and I wonder if anyone would be so kind as to offer some advice on the best seats at the ground and when it's best to book them?
His Birthday actually falls on an away match (Arsenal) but I assume we are unlikely to get those, plus it may be nice to be at home as that's where he grew up, just down the road from Selhurst.
Thanks!

Yala for England
lundi 14 décembre 2015
Was watching MoTD just now with my colleague (who is English) and we had the following conversation
"That Bolasie is pretty good, do you think he should play for England?"
"No."
"Why not?"
"Because he was born in France and plays for Congo."
"Oh."
:D

This season I predicted Villa, Bournemouth and Norwich in October, but I think Bournemouth are going to pull out, they are playing through their injury issues better than I thought they would.
Rep comments on Android
On either an android phone or tablet, why does it not allow me to type in a comment when I rep somebody. Tried all ways but usually end up not commenting. Obviously I've not been able to neg rep from my phone on the rare occasion I've felt the urge.
What has been the season highlight so far?
Beating Liverpool and inflicting Klopp's first defeat? Or would it be defeating Chelsea at Stamford Bridge?

Is it permanently offline?? It's a fantastic way to communicate with the club, I'd hate to think that we've lost that connection.

Alan Pardew wants competition at centre back with the likes of 34-year-old Brede Hangeland heading towards the end of his career.
Niedermeier has vast experience and can add goals from set-pieces.
Palace, meanwhile, have agreed a deal for 18-year-old Tower Hamlets winger Randell Williams
