Well I'm not happy and I'm sure many others are the same.


I can well see the point. Would you have won the game without players being rested? That's a hypothetical that can never be answered.

Regardless, if players are good enough to be in a Prem league squad then there's a reasonable expectation they are good enough to compete. Unless they are a f***ing 6 ft 4 carthorse of a striker that is, signed by a racist. Not bitter, no...

Why not give Tremmel a game,Palace had virtually a full side. At least Emnes showed he is never a PL player.

Wales v Belgium is a lot more important than today's game. Well done Garry

It was a nothing game,so why not rest the players for their country! So Monk made the right call.

Not me it's not.


Today's game was a nothing game. We were gonna finish 8th winning 10-0 or losing 35-2. It doesn't matter. Feel sorry for the people that went and paid money but sh*t happens, like when I paid to go see us play Bournemouth in pre-season and it ended up being a U21 game (the irony being the senior squad were being rested to play a team that would finish in the bottom half of the league instead of playing the eventual champions).

Mind... even Palace rested Ledley for Wales...

Williams, Taylor, Shelvey and Siggy were not on the training for Palace video. So this should have been expected.

Its a squad game at the end of the day. Personally would have started Tremmel as well. Perfect opportunity for members of the squad to get game time.

We didn't lose today because Ash and Taylor weren't playing. We lost today because Gomis, Montero and Dyer showed almost no interest in the game.

Emnes tried hard, other than him, the forward line was non existent.

Always going to be like that with nothing to play for other than Fab's golden glove.

I didn't even bother going to today's match - I would have had to rearrange some things and once I knew there was nothing on it, I didn't bother. Partly because I knew we wouldn't play a full team as all those with the slightest of knocks wouldn't play and partly because the last away game is normally full of very drunks fans looking to create a bit of a fuss and I can't be bothered with all that.

What a season. Oh, and come on Wales :-)

They wouldn't have got away with that if Williams had been on the field.

oh come on Darran mun - we've seen lots of game over time where Ash hasn't been able to do anything about the players not giving a stuff.

Given that Ash would have wanted to play every minute of the season if he could, I imagine he wasn't quite right anyway.

OK limited changes maybe, but leaving the only two players who can kick a decent dead ball, Jonjo and Siggy was stupid. Gomis was unable to do anything today because he never had a ball played in front of him all afternoon.

according to reports they were both injured, so not sure exactly what people expect.

The difference it makes when something is on it is that players play when injured. When there's nothing on it they don't. Hence today's changes.

With nearly three thousand loyal travelling fans willing them to win how can you say there was nothing on it. If nothing else the pride those travelling fans who have been faithful all season would feel with another premier league away win. Surely they deserved that.

A very frustrating game for a number of reasons. Still no great surprise in our C team losing to Palace's A team at Palace.

I think we learned a bit about squad strength though. Without Ash, Shelvey and Siggy we're pretty toothless at both ends.

The orthodox are always orthodox, regardless of the orthodoxy.

We all want them to win, but there was nothing on the game was there.

Why on earth is anyone surprised? It always happens - last year we did it at Sunderland albeit we won.

That's why I didn't go. Most people going would have known what to expect and would have enjoyed it if they went with that in mind.

The travelling fans I'm sure feel a massive amount of pride at finishing 8th with 56 points. I certainly do.
