Ok, it's not much, but I heard something at least a bit heartening in amongst the current gloom.
Kevin Nolan was co-presenting the breakfast show on Talksport this morning. He was asked whether John Stones would be part of the England squad under Big Sam.
He said that he was sure he would because Allardyce likes a ball-playing centre half as long as they are also prepared to stick their head in where it hurts and that John Stones does that.
He then said that they had such a player at West Ham in James Tomkins and that he would have a great chance of getting selected for England once established at Palace.
So, maybe we really are on the verge of getting away from the hopeless punts from the back once Tomkins gets into the team. Let's hope he's fit for Saturday.
