Right so the disaster that was Crystal Palace must be dissected. Joining us tonight to fondly reminisce on the shitefest pig parade of a side on sunday is twitters @thecenci aka author Karl Coppack. No punches are pulled or stones left unturned. In fact the stones are hurled at those shitehawks who continually let the side down. We then tried to look at Ludogorets and Stoke with the returning Anfield Mole aka @moley_lfcdt. Like all Irish wakes we round out having a laugh at someones expense while talking cabbage. From wanting to the Crimson Bolt on the team to “sort” things out or whos our most metrosexual tripper.
