Palace limped into the promotion play-offs. As much as I'd like to say something snarky it's pretty amazing they got that far. If they crash out I'll start whining but I'll enjoy it while I can.

Palace off to Wembley, awesome. Thanks to ManU for buying Zaha over the winter transfer window and kindly loaning him right back for the rest of the year. 2 goals in the second leg to defeat your biggest rivals at their place is solid. Hopefully Holloway learned enough from losing the Championship promotion final last year with Blackpool to win this one.

Congratulations to Wigan Athletic.

2014 Championship Champions, if the rigors of European football don't sink them. Fuck the FA for having the Cup final before the end of the season. Who cares if UEFA doesn't want anyone playing on the field before the Champion's League final, are they playing on Soldier Field turf or something?

Mancini sacked at Citeh

Well Palace-Watford is going on. Think there's some sort of financial incentive for the teams to win. Nothing's happened yet after 70 minutes, which is ok for Palace.

yeah, promotion into the english premier league.... 120 million pounds or something?

Yeah, and even if you immediately get relegated back to the Championship they still pay you more for a few years.

So Palace is in the EPL, completely stunned. Thrilled for Super Kev and Ollie. Hope Dougie Freedman enjoys Bolton after bolting Palace midseason. Not sure Zaha is worth what ManU paid for him, but he was sure worth a lot in the playoffs, although 3 clean sheets helped. Don't see any way Hull and Palace will stay up next year, but I'll wait til August to whine about that.

Ian Holloway back in the Prem. I like it. I missed his rambling diatribe-filled press conferences and Bristol accent.

They want Zaha for a loan next year. I think he should stay at Palace and try the PL for a year with no pressure and no spotlight. Running by the entire Watford team is way different from playing a top level organized defense that won't let you have any space to maneuver.

Should be and interesting year for manager's press conference's with Holloway, Di Canio and now Mourinho back in Premiership. I'm sure it will make up for Sir Alex not being there.

KD - Congrats again on Palace making it back to the Premiership. Back in 2004, when Palace was promoted to the Premier League. Chelsea FC appointed a new manager, that's right, Jose Mourinho was sppointed to lead Chelsea FC. The also won the league.

I now finally hate Man U.

- Signed,
Pissed off Evertonian

Not only did you lose Moyes, it looks as if Everton will be hiring Roberto Martinez. After he got Wigan relegated. I can't recall a relegated manager getting a job with a top of the table team happening often.
