H and H brief match report.

Just wanted to register my appreciation and admiration with regards to last night's match. We really shook H and H out of their misplaced complacency with what I would say was the best TEAM performance for a while.
Although we lost, it was only really in the last 15 minutes when the oppo started to feel that they were going to win.
It would be disingenuous to pick out individuals as I thought we were excellent as a team however Perre looked hungry for the ball and linked up well with Scott and the midfield. Andy and Simon were solid there and I thought Dane caused lots if problems on the right.
Lee and Barry worked well together at the back and overall we chased and compressed them whilst also offering credible opportunities up front.
We were good value for the 2-2 score line at half time and they knew it.
Only near the end did H and H start to dominate but we always looked threatening, something that started to play on their confidence and really shook them, in the first half in particular.
Well done. You should be proud of yourselves. So let's take this on to the next game. Self- belief and a great team spirit will always be successful!!!

Hey guys, always remember when something seems too good to be true, it is. As you may recall Palace told us that the grass pitch would be available all summer except for the 3 dates in late June/July. However the pitch needs re-seeding (no surprise, as this is what has happened each of the last 10 years) and we can't use it during August. So we have booked the bar pitch astro for 7th, 14th, 21st and 28th August. Kick offs will be 8.30 pm, meet from 7.45 pm (the earlier kick offs planned will have to start in September). Sorry about this but it's the usual Palace poor organisation. See you on Thursday in astro boots.
