Oh well, not to worry - Palace beaten by Watford over two legs. We looked awful to be fair. I think we are suffering from the Rooney effect - ie when he was with Everton they just tried to play everything through him - and when he left they were much better. Hopefully for the sake of AJ's career he'll move on to a top premiership team and come good for England too - he has shown tremendous loyalty with Palace and has pretty much had to sacrifice his world cup place as a result. It will then give Dowie time to rebuild and play a pass and move game rather than hoof it up front for AJ to chase.
