If we can't pay him off put him on gardening leave. Just means one less £2k per week player covers the new gaffers wages.

Terry is delusional if he thinks the ref cost us that game. The reason why Port Value won is because they aren't totally dogshit in front of goal.

So a draw at Grimsby means we finish 6th and play either Notts County or Walsall. County home to promoted Donny & Walsall at Crewe

This FA cup game is very good. I see lots of attacking play with the ball being passed forward frequently. Is this allowed? Does our manager know?

If we had the mentality that we had earlier in the season I would be confident that we would draw at worst vs Grimsby- though if we had kept that mentality we wouldn’t have thrown away so many late points recently and would be in the playoffs (at least) already

Palace winning at Wembley

Eze thunderbolt!

Pretty gutted at the position we're in tbh. I thought if nothing else Jackson had strengthened our mentality, but we've thrown it away.

I am not sure why any manager would sign a contract which has the playoffs as a target with the 12th budget or why any club would offer it. I do not believe there will be any playoff stipulation in the contract.

Football can be a cruel mistress.

Rome wasn’t built in a day.

It’s the hope that kills you.

I don't mind JJ going but I reckon there is a much higher probability of relegation if he does (with another change of manager around the turn of the year)

Silk - presumably his contract only runs to next season if we make thevplay-offs? I thought that written into his contract when it was extended. If not - chairman should be sacked for signing off on it.

We simply do not deserve even a play-off place after the collapse over the last 15 games. Even if we did stumble into them there is a good chance we could match or exceed the scum's play-off record last season against Crawley.

Dons Outlook - JJ's contract runs out at the end of next season so he will be in situ next season. Don't be surprised if it gets extended again in the summer however.

I notice Walsall lost again - no wins in their last 13 matches.

And if we lose and Salford win, the biggest cunt in football will be dancing like John Travolta

So win and we finish 5/6 - draw we finish 6 - lose and it's 7/8/9. Am I correct that JJ's contract runs out at end of season?

There is something really annoying about the "Palace Ultras" and their contrived singing

Since its not JJs first sending off, dies he get a bigger ban? Hope so, let's get Wally back...

I suppose that's where the form algorithm comes in - two out of form teams battle it out for a 0-0 draw. It saves us, but Grimsby miss out to Salford who finish 7th

More positively, Grimsby have only won one of their last six and that was against bottom placed Morecambe.

Nothing about what I see suggests we have a change in form about us. Barely a shot on target, at home, in a critical match. Again.

We have to lose and either Salford or Chesterfield have to win.
