@MagpieBristol – “Speed of play is a big issue. Need to move the ball much faster when they have it. Much better that they are at least trying to attack although there still doesn't seem to be much of a clear plan on how to do it.”

@_MatthewHunter1 – “So poor second half. Bruce will say he throw everything at them when in fact he threw attacking players on with no plan. Next few games are massive.”

@davez2010 – “Players looked tired today, gave everything on Saturday and didn’t have enough for 90 minutes today. Ran out of ideas, Palace were not even very good but won in a 5 minute spell...”

@agbnufc_ – “In this lockdown era with minimal entertainment he's managed to suck what little life and soul this club had left. I will pop champagne the day he’s gone.”
