Burnley, Your Summer Starts Now (Thank You!)

Filed under: Neil Warnock - 04 May 2008

Today is one of those days where I feel daft for worrying. Prior to kick-off at Selhurst Park and knowing that a win would assure us of a play-off place I somehow felt that we typically wouldn’t make it that …

Palace Continue To Be Upwardly Mobile, Relegate Scunthorpe

Filed under: Neil Warnock - 13 Apr 2008

At a time in the season where consistency is key Palace (of all teams!) seem to have discovered it. Yesterday we beat Scunthorpe 2-0 at Selhurst Park, with first-half goals from Tom Soares and Clinton Morrison both securing another three …

Freezing But Full of Hope

Crystal Palace vs Cardiff City, 4th March 2008 

On a rare trip down South I was lucky enough to take the opportunity to get to Selhurst last night. Well, lucky if you don’t mention that it was absolutely freezing cold in SE25 last night, and probably more so if (like me) you were in the upper tier of the Holmesdale. I came away with a desperate need to thaw out, but also optimistic about our future.

One of the Better Days

Filed under: Neil Warnock - 02 Mar 2008

Combine a few injuries and suspensions, a player falling out of favour, a forced injection of youth and a trip to a usual bogey ground and what would you expect? Well in fairness you probably wouldn’t expect a 1-0 victory …

I Don’t Like Weekends That Start Like This

Filed under: Neil Warnock - 08 Feb 2008

And by this I mean losing 2-0 at Charlton, Luke Varney with both goals in the second half for the home team.

I’m not particularly keen on the strategy of being a goal down late on, bringing …

Second-placed City Beaten, Palace Climb to Fifth

Filed under: Neil Warnock - 20 Jan 2008

I’m getting to like Sunday mornings lately. As our run up the table has continued so we’ve featured more and more on ITV’s Championship coverage, and that continued this morning with yesterday’s 2-0 win over Bristol City at Selhurst Park. …

Scowie’s Sky+ Special

Filed under: Neil Warnock - 13 Jan 2008

We all know the frustrations of ITV’s coverage of the Championship. The changing times, the condensed shows when there is a clash with a Grand Prix, and the fear that they might forget about the Championship completely if they’ve got …

New Year, Same Old Norwich

Filed under: Neil Warnock - 02 Jan 2008

My early days of supporting Palace are filled with memories of seeing us play Norwich, due to my Dad’s business connections. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen us beat them in a league fixture (although the Zenith Data Systems Cup …

On the Day After Christmas Palace Gave To Me

Filed under: Neil Warnock - 26 Dec 2007

… a victory over our ex-boss who’s ugly.

Sorry, couldn’t resist.

Second half goals from Clinton Morrison and Paul Ifill did the trick for Palace, along with a great penalty save from Julian Speroni.

Even better, our former manager didn’t sound very happy. “The …

Scannell’s Late Show Sinks Wednesday

Filed under: Neil Warnock - 16 Dec 2007

I’m pleased to type familiar sentences with different figures. Another win, another game in the unbeaten streak! Our 2-1 win over Sheffield Wednesday saw us come from 1-0 down. Our equaliser was scored by Clinton Morrison before 17 year-old Sean …
