Seen many trot this argument out but it makes zero sense... We can't just declare a pitch unsafe for shits & giggles, in fact we can't do it at all, only EFL officials/representatives can.

Yeah, no doubt his intentions were good, he is/was a massive Palace fan after all. You'd be hard pushed to find many that think he did a good job though.

Didn't he fail to pay staff wages for months & also do a rather shady stadium deal that ultimately backfired?

In fairness to the club they probably expect it to be off & would like to communicate that ASAP but there's EFL protocol to follow, only their officials can declare a pitch as safe/unsafe.

What was our team mate? Who was in goal?

Quite. Yet the football club are the ones being accused of trying to 'distress' Wasps... Makes no sense.

I suspect it can't officially be called on or off until a referee has inspected it, regardless what an agronomist says (have we all learnt a new word this week?).

Not as simplistic as that, signings don't work out for a myriad of reasons, doesn't mean no due diligence was done, as you said yourself we'd been monitoring Kastaneer for years. He's clearly a very talented footballer, had a Premier League move all but agreed earlier in his career & was even a...

This is incredible.

They both will I think but have a lot of work to do & need games to get up to speed hence why last night was ideal. Much rather that than thrown in to start a league game at this stage.

I'm starting to wonder if Shugs is someone from here on the windup. I assumed he was just blindly loyal & following whatever their owners preached as gospel but I'm struggling to believe anyone on the planet is as naïve as this. This meme was literally invented for him:

I wonder what our old mate Andy Goode thinks about it all? He always had his finger on the pulse...

Robins literally said exactly that himself.

Bit of perspective; 14 Championship teams knocked out tonight/last night, 11 of them to lower league teams.

I think that's a fair assessment but not uncommon in young players.

Only for mistaken identity
