It was a cracking game yesterday & a really good day out. Had no problems from the Cardiff fans, had a beer in Walkabout before the game & Wetherspoons after, good banter & no hostility.
N'Diaye should have been sent off, his yellow was deserved & his lunge was reckless. The ref took his time in making his decision & I think if Chopra (surprise surprise) made less of a drama out of it he would have gone.
Stern John looked sharp when he came on but my MOTM would go to Paddy, very composed & headed everything away.
A draw was a fair result, we played very well & you could see how Cardiff have scored so many goals at home this season - excellent on the counter attack & strong through out the team.
There was about 500 Palace fans, we sang for the whle 90 minutes, I was stood at the back quite near to the HF & I was impressed with their support. It was lively & loud, Cardiff support was sh*t, only made noise when they'd scored.
Chant of the day: Hudson is a w*nker la la la la!
On a seperate note, the security at CCS were superb! They left us alone to enjoy the game, the only thing they spoke about was taking a small HF flag off the back wall & telling people not to stand on seats. We were allowed to stand for the full 90 minutes.
