As i did before the Barnsley game, here's what the Palace lot have to say from CPFC BBS at http://www.cpfc.org/. I'm pleased to report again that all of them were nice people with the odd "hilarious" response!

The Questions
1) What will the outcome of the match be?
2) Which player should we fear most?
3) Which player do you fear most?
4) Who is your worst player?
5) Who do you judge our worst player to be?
6) Which player should we look out for in the future?
7) Where do you think you will finish this season?
8) Where do you think Forest will finish this season
9) What do you think the Future holds for both clubs?

ForzaPalace
1) 0-0
2) Moses
3) Tyson
4) Alan Lee
5) Adebola
6) N'Diaye/Moses
7) 16th
8) 5th
9) Championship for a while

Clapham Grand
1) 0-2
2) Moses if fit
3) Blackstock
4) Take your pick!
5) no idea
6) Clyne, if he plays
7) 18th
8) play-offs
9) Admin for us, good times for you

Elliott
1) 0-5
2) Alan Lee
3) In general? Probably Carlos Puyol
4) See number 2
5) That Tyson bloke, is he still there?
6) This young lad we have on loan, Ashley Cole I think his name is?
7) 25th
8) Above us
9) We're doomed

dannyboy1807
1) 2-0 Palace
2) Moses if fit,Danns if not
3) We fear knowone
4) Alan Lee (he tries hard)
5) I dunno you brought so many players
6) Clyne I hope
7) Top Half
8) 8th
9) Well if you keep spending prem probably we hope to get takenover soon but were be stuck in this division for a few seasons yet

cpfc4evandeva
1) 3 points to the Palace
2) Alan Lee's speed will cause you problems
3) Tyson. I'm guessing that his dad would have taught him a few tricks in the ring.
4) Alan Lee's speed has caused us problems all season.
5) Tyson. I think he's better suited in the ring.
6) Ashley Paul Robinson
7) 1st or 24th. There's no inbetween with Palace.
8) 12th
9) Years of near misses at both end of the table. And plenty of glaring misses if we keep Alan Lee.

Riccardo
1) 1-3 if you play like you did vs. Newcastle
2) Clint Hill is mental. Skill-wise, Victor Moses or Sean Scannell (if he comes on near the end of the game).
3) Tyson, also Blackstock is useful.
4) alan lee isn't my favourite player, but worst is possibly harsh....ok, alan lee
5) From what I've seen of you lot, not many. Garner always looks a tad lightwight though.
6) Clyne - should be somewhere like Arsenal really.
7) Just above relegation, thanks to Julian Speroni, if he stays with us.
8) had a bet with a Southampton workmate pre-season you'd go up, via playoffs.
9) Possible playoff heartache for you, us, Administration, possibly, and dreams of the Premiership fading into thoughts of where we will be playing our football next season.

New LP
1) 0-1, you are playing us at a time when we have injuries.
2) Darren Ambrose is out so Victor Moses.
3) Nathan Tyson
4) Matt Lawrence, although he's been dropped.
5) Not sure sorry.
6) Nathaniel Clyne
7) Midtable providing we don't go into administration and take the 10 point hit.
8) Midtable as well.
9) Palace need new owners and to gain ownership of Selhurst Park, we are potless!! Forest like many clubs are also destined to continue at this level unless you can attract investment I'd say? But your neighbours prove that things can change very quickly in football.

ThisIsDoM
1) 1-0 Palace
2) Julian Speroni
3) Nathan Tyson
4) Matt Lawrence (Alan Lee out of the probable starting XI)
5) Lee Camp
6) Victor Moses / Nathan Clyne
7) 7th
8) 11th
9) More Championship football for the next few seasons.

sw16girl
1) 1-1
2) Julian Speroni
3) Blackstock - just on goals scored
4) Much of a muchness except for Speroni and Moses who isn't fit. They can all have really good games and then really bad ones so it depends what happens on the day
5) Don't know
6) Out of those likely to start N'Diaye
7) 16th
8) 7th
9) Bumpy times off the field coupled with solid but unspectactular times on it for us - upper Championship frustration for you

milky87
1) 2 - 0 Palace (Lee and Sears the scorers)
2) Freddie Sears (I feel a backlash coming from him)
3) Adebola (ex Palace)
4) We do not have any bad players
5) I have no idea who you are
6) Clyne
7) 5th
8) 11th
9) Our 5 year European plan begins now so watch out. For you lot (whoever you are????) mid table mediocrity.

Welcome - will be attending with my Forest fan of 50 years father in law (he spotted Gary Birtles as a kid - good player, cr*p pundit!

Big Blue Eagle
1) 1-1
2) Moses if fit, otherwise Derry for his ability to stifle play
3) Blackstock
4) According to the pa in law - Wes Morgan
5) Hmm.........no one exceptionally poor they are all averagely poor but Lee has under performed for most of his time with us
6) Moses, Clyne, Scannell are known about but I think N'Diaye will be a very good player
7) Outside bet for the play offs if we get the chance to bring in a striker
8) similar to us but shorter odds
9) Forest have a huge fan base but are living on past glories to a degree like Leeds and others. At best, at the moment, you could be a Wigan type lower Prem team - but please stay true to Clough's football methods of playing on grass. Palace need a buyer with funds or we will drift lower as other weathlier teams continue to emerge. We have a great academy but lower CCC or worse football will not entice young talent to us. Hopefully a sensible buyer will come in and rebuild us gradually to be at worst a yo yo club again!



Plenty to pick at there i reckon. To be honest i've only heard of this Clyne bloke in passing so would be interesting to see what happens to him. From the responses, i'd say we should definitely be looking for a nice away win.

After all of this, i say 3-1 to Forest.

I know - i think this is definitely winnable and we all know confidence from the stands makes its way on to the pitch.

Roll on win number 6!

Most teams seem to have a sheer terror of Tyson but i'm still really not sure why :think: He's great on his day and an utter legend but I don't think any team should be shitting bricks like people seem to.

Tyson's pace is enough to worry any defence in the league. It's good to see other teams fans are worried about him.

Beware the Warnock.

5 match winning streak ends somewhere - and Palace isnt somewhere where I recall us regularly winning.

Hope Im wrong.

Can see a 0-0 or a 1-1 looming.

We won there last season and sounds like they are lacking in confidence and have injuries to key players.

Even with the Warnock factor, I feel quietly confident of a win.

It was awesome last season when we nicked it at the death.

Didn't the first goal go in in the same was as Majewski's free kick against Peterborough?

I can't really remember the game, to be honest.

Just know that we hadn't won for ages and then we did!

It certainly made up for a freezing cold day in dirty old London village.

Rich, you had about four pre match meals. Good times on the mini bus though, when Dylan wasn't farting, and Oscar wasn't making us read Gay Times.

I'm looking forward to a few bevvies with the LTLF lot and singing myself to a sore throat for a week.

The drive back was like a drive through Russia with snow piled high on the side of the motorway.

I'd have been ok if I had a wooly hat :mad:

Interesting they all fear Tyson. Shows how far we have come. Raddy and Ando probably more threatening ability wise.
Garner lightweight :blink:. Maybe but he certainly punches above his weight.

The palace win last season was a great great day, ended up going on a pissup through carrington/sherwood of all the glamourous places, before having a curry.

It was the same for the Brinsley Barnsley match. they all said Tys. The thing is he is always publicised because of how fast he is (and good at waving flags). There aren't many who would realise the sort of talent we have in Raddy still either. I think previous seasons most asked said McGugan to me. Purely because he was being touted in all footy mags as the next big thing !

I think its completely rational for them to all fear Tyson. He does seem like a natural choice if you ask me.I thought about this during the Barnsley game as they had all said him, and he did go at them more than enough to justify it.
