Lets talk about the Northampton Town game

Crystal Palace are doing to WBA what I hoped we would do 2nd half to Northampton.

Maybe I am just a greedy so & so. But I feel it was a lost opportunity to improve the goal difference further.
Yes I am a hard man to please this weekend.

Think we need to develop a ruthless streak but Suppose i need to accept this is a young team and 5/6 of our players are getting their 1st taste of League Football this season.
The main thing is we got the 3 points against an awkward team to play against on the worst playing surface i have seen for some time.

  We need to have that ruthless streak more when a game is tight and either grab a winner or hold what we have. It would have come in handy at Hull.
  We did more than enough yesterday for the three points, and got back on a winning track after a late disappointment Wednesday, which was exactly what was needed and something now to build on.
  Another little run of good results can now be our objective and build momentum and pressure on the teams above us.

Let's not forget it would have been 3-0 also if not for the penalty save, we were very unlucky not to turn the chance in that led to the handball for that.

Hardly a disappointment, it was our most comfortable win of the season in some respects, save for maybe the Bristol Rovers game.

  I agree RA, we dominated the game and managed all the major moments in the game, and took the chance to rebuild confidence. The sign of a team that can win games when not always at the top of their form.
  What's not to like?
