Yes, Palace are in the final of the conference league and have dropped to 15th to get there. West Ham and Spurs suffered as well. It gives me pause.
But the thing is we actually could win the Conference and if prem form suffered I’m sure we’d blow it out, certainly blow out the cup games. 9 of the bench and B team members play those.

@BrentfordFC Exactly the apathy we expected from a Keith Andrews side that at times has offered glimpses but generally has relied on penalties and below par does. Thiago will not be the same next year and Andrews will be gone by December. Very poor side
Edit in wrong we still can drop to 11th haha which is now more likely now I have spoken
@AndyTheTwat1992 @CPFC It was a shirt pull but don't think was enough in it to overrule the onfield decision.
Johnson throwing himself in a heap didn't merit the extent of the pull.
A bit different to Garner's on Strand Larsen last week imo where he's shoved him off balance just as about to shoot...

@CPFC Unfortunate to be going in level after conceding a goal like that.
Near perfect defensive and midfield performances but so wasteful up front.
Too many instances of Pino, Strand Larsen etc failing to make simple passes in build up play.
Need to improve on this next season.
@BrentfordFC This pundit clown is doing his best to stop us playing in Europe... seriously hard to watch his style of play. Useless
Adam Wharton is and has never been a defensive midfielder. He's a deep lying playmaker like pirlo was
Jensen what is wrong this game?

◆ Algo-Amplified — Boosted Without Substance
Sorry. This is fucking ridiculous. Shame on the players for making crystal palace who don’t give a rats ass about the league look good.
Just play the academy against Arsenal and call it good, don’t risk a single player
I don’t like bashing players because they’re human, but man, why does Schade think it’s a good idea to fall every time he is on the box? I realised that, in my head he was still living off that goal against Palace back in 2023. What happened?
The worst thing a manager can say about you is "I'm taking you off at halftime for Brennan Johnson"
No coincidence we concede with a back three of Canvot, Lerma and hobbling Richards.
It didn’t go our way but I love that determination. We keep it alive against Liverpool.
Disastrous performance from Kelleher. Henderson and Van Den Berg were quality after coming on to the pitch. Back against the wall now
@CPFC He did it! ⚽️🥅🏟️🦅🫡 #Wharton #CPFC #CrystalPalace #backflip https://t.co/suxO7lfTvX
Fucks sake. Kellehers been fantastic all season and decided today is the day to drop a stinker. First half and much was unacceptable. Dango is proving he is worth every penny.
Weve put ourselves in a situation with that where we now need to win at anfield....
Not a good situation to be in.
We also need Spurs to beat Chelsea
Also not a good situation to be in.
Bad performance, but you know what, a point is not that bad given how a lot of the other results went. Liverpool have been so bad, I do believe we could go there and win

Fan Narratives
Kelleher's Howler Costs Liverpool European Dream
Emerging
Controversial
Liverpool supporters are furious with goalkeeper Caoimhín Kelleher's performance against Crystal Palace, singling out his failure to save Adam Wharton's second-half shot and an early penalty concession as critical errors that could cost them a European spot. Whilst acknowledging his strong season overall, fans argue today was precisely the moment he needed to deliver at the highest level.
Brentford and Palace Draw in Chaotic VAR Drama
Emerging
Controversial
Fans are reacting to a wild 2-2 draw between Brentford and Crystal Palace, with heavy focus on the early VAR penalty decision for Sarr that sparked the entire match — some reckon it was a dive, others are just bemused by the chaos that followed across ninety minutes. The discussion is fractured and scattered, mixing genuine reaction to the goals with half-joking commentary about academy rotation, title races, and other clubs entirely.
Brentford Fans Frustrated as Team Looks Disengaged
Controversial
Brentford supporters are expressing deep frustration with their side's lethargic performance and lack of intensity in the 2-2 draw, with particular criticism aimed at the tactical setup failing to exploit space and the midfield's inability to function effectively. Fans believe the players appear to have mentally checked out, lacking urgency and effort despite the match being competitive on the scoreline, and several are calling for tactical changes to reinvigorate the attack.
Crystal Palace Fans Furious at Johnson Display
Emerging
Crystal Palace supporters are venting intense frustration at Brennan Johnson's performance in the draw against Brentford, criticising his decision-making, lack of impact, and perceived weakness on the ball. There's also debate about missed penalty decisions and calls for the club to move him on, with fans suggesting he's either mentally broken or simply not cut out for Premier League football.
Fans Slam Schade's Diving and Mentality Issues
Controversial
Brentford supporters are heavily criticising a player named Schade for repeatedly going to ground too easily and conceding needless fouls throughout matches, with several questioning his professionalism and suggesting the club should move him on in the summer. A handful of fans acknowledge he showed promise in previous seasons but insist his current behaviour and lack of composure are costing the team.
VAR Penalty Call Splits Brentford and Palace Fans
Fans remain heavily divided over whether the fourth-minute penalty awarded to Crystal Palace for an alleged foul on Ismaïla Sarr was a legitimate decision or a dramatic dive, with Brentford supporters adamant it was contact-free theatrics whilst some neutral observers defend it as a clear foul. The controversy epitomises broader frustrations with VAR's consistency this weekend, with several posts calling for the system's complete removal.
Crystal Palace Fans Hail Wharton's First Goal of Season
Controversial
Supporters are celebrating Adam Wharton's maiden goal for Palace during the 2-2 draw against Brentford, with many praising his technical ability and potential despite some joking about the fortuitous nature of the finish. The discussion reveals genuine admiration for the midfielder's quality as a deep-lying playmaker, with fans suggesting he could become one of the window's standout signings.
Brentford's Toothless Display in Eight-Goal Thriller
Fans are heavily criticising Brentford's attacking performance and midfield organisation in what became a frenetic 2-2 draw, with particular frustration aimed at lack of movement, poor forward passing, and tactical decisions that left them outplayed despite late heroics keeping them level. The discussion centres on squad selection for upcoming international duty and concerns that the midfield needs wholesale changes to compete.
Brentford and Palace Fans Celebrate Dramatic Draw
Supporters from both sides are expressing relief and elation after a thrilling 2-2 comeback, with Dango Ouattara's late equaliser salvaging a point for Crystal Palace in a match that swung back and forth through penalties, headers, and crucial finishes. The overwhelmingly positive sentiment reflects gratitude for an entertaining encounter that kept both sets of fans on edge until the final whistle.
Brentford and Palace Clash in Controversial Draw
Controversial
Fans are divided over a 2-2 draw marred by a questionable early penalty award to Crystal Palace and debatable goalkeeping errors, with Brentford supporters frustrated at dropped points whilst Palace fans feel their dominance went unrewarded despite sloppy defending and missed chances. The discussion centres on whether either side truly deserved the result, alongside criticism of individual performances and broader season disappointments.
Wharton Stuns Fans With Unexpected Backflip Celebration
Crystal Palace supporters were left amazed and amused when midfielder Adam Wharton marked his 52nd-minute goal with an impromptu backflip, with fans flooding social media in shock at the unexpected acrobatic display. The celebration became the talking point of the match, with viewers repeatedly expressing disbelief that Wharton possessed the athleticism to pull off such a move.
Brentford's Europe Dream Dies in Palace Draw
Controversial
Brentford fans are furious that their side failed to capitalise on a crucial opportunity to close the gap on European qualification, drawing 2-2 with Crystal Palace and now desperately dependent on other results going their way. The overriding sentiment is one of frustration at a perceived lack of hunger and desire—many supporters believe the team simply didn't turn up with the intensity required to secure a vital three points in the race for the top seven.
Dango Ouattara's Rare Goal Spark Mixed Reactions
Brentford fans are debating Ouattara's inconsistency after he finally scored in the 2-2 draw, with supporters divided between praising his technical quality and criticising his inability to find the net regularly throughout a season. The discussion highlights frustration that a player of his passing ability should contribute more goals, whilst questioning whether occasional brilliance masks a broader pattern of underperformance.
Injury Concerns Overshadow Draw as Final Looms
Controversial
Brentford supporters are conflicted about their 2-2 draw, frustrated they didn't win more decisively, but overwhelmingly focused on whether key defender Chris Richards and other injured players will be fit for an upcoming final on the 27th. The result itself feels secondary to the squad's fitness heading into what appears to be a crucial showdown.
Crystal Palace Fans Hail Adam Wharton's Standout Performance
Crystal Palace supporters are singing the praises of midfielder Adam Wharton following his impressive display in the 2-2 draw with Brentford, with fans particularly impressed by his athleticism and overall quality on the ball. The midfielder scored a crucial goal in the match and has clearly won over the Palace fanbase with his energetic and skilful contributions to the side.
Brentford And Palace Fight Back In Chaotic Draw
Fans watched an end-to-end thriller where both sides traded goals — Brentford equalised twice through Dango Ouattara's headers after falling behind to Ismaïla Sarr's early penalty, only to see Crystal Palace restore their lead before another Ouattara header earned a dramatic 2-2 draw. The neutral discussion centred on the frantic pace, individual moments of quality, and relief or frustration at the final scoreline.
Sunderland Fans Dissect Chaotic European Race Math
After the 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace, Sunderland supporters are grappling with a bewildering tangle of permutations that could see them finish anywhere from 6th to 7th place, requiring unlikely results elsewhere (Tottenham beating Chelsea, Manchester City over Bournemouth) and crucially a victory at Anfield to have any realistic chance of securing European football. The mood is cautiously hopeful but deeply anxious—they've backed themselves into a corner where their own fate is only partly in their hands.
Brentford's Dropped Points Cost Dream of Top Six
Brentford fans are frustrated after a 2-2 draw at home to Crystal Palace, believing the dropped points from a winning position have effectively ended their top-flight ambitions for the season. The discussion centres on missed opportunity and the cumulative damage of not converting dominant performances into victories, with supporters questioning whether their side lacks the mentality to close out crucial matches.

"Weve put ourselves in a situation with that where we now need to win at anfield....

Spurs can draw to Chelsea tbh aslong as Chelsea and Sunderland also draw that will be the game to watch out for
If Spurs beat Chelsea and Sunderland tie Chelsea the week after Europe might be ours regardless of Liverpool result
↳
True
We've still put Europe in a position almost outside our control, we need other teams to do us favours
↳
It’s outside our control but not really. Brighton have Man U, Sunderland and Chelsea have each other. Everton must make up 5 GD. I don’t imagine all those things will go against us.
↳
Sadly Chelsea just beating spurs and Sunderland is most pessimistic but also not far fetched and then we would have to beat Liverpool and hope Forest and Utd do us a favour and city first of all damage Bournemouth gd and don’t let them get a point too
↳
Everton making up the GD is very unlikely, same with Brighton beating Man United.
I csnt see Chelsea Sunderland being a draw though which could send us below 8th if we cant get a result at anfield. That doesnt even consider the Chelsea spurs match tomorrow which could easily be a Chelsea win sending us down to 9th on GD
↳
I don’t think a Sunderland v Chelsea draw is all that unlikely and all we need is for Spurs to draw Chelsea then
↳
Sadly Sunderland Chelsea drawing is unlikely if they add insane added time which is the way these games are going sadly at the end after all that to determine positions we just had our ten minutes when we made it 2-2 today
↳
I hope youre right
↳
I mean I’m not saying it’s super likely or going to happen but definitely a solid chance
"Sarr goes down on his own. He isn’t at all taken out by Kelleher. If you wanna call a foul on KLP go ahead but he’s already falling when Kelleher approaches the ball "
"Sarr goes down on his own. He isn’t at all taken out by Kelleher. If you wanna call a foul on KLP go ahead but he’s already falling when Kelleher approaches the ball "
He's being pushed off balance by Lewis-Potter and then clipped slightly by Kelleher. It's would be a soft penalty in isolation but there are arguably two fouls in the box within a second.
↳
I’m fine if they wanna call it on KLP, but I just don’t think Kelleher committed a foul. Player was already headed to ground
kelleher barely touched him but var won't overturn these anymore, they just want to avoid controversy
pen was soft but what can you do
↳
What do you mean overturn? Original call was no pen. The pen was given after the VAR check.
you can actually quite clearly see kelleher catching sarr's absolutely massive balls and bringing him down
↳
The balls brought his center of mass too forward. Fell on his own
↳
ahhh fairs hadn't considered this tbh
"Didn’t know Wharton could do a backflip 😂😂😂"
"Didn’t know Wharton could do a backflip 😂😂😂"
Probably because he never scores 😂
Didn't know he hadn't scored for Palace lol

"For everyone obsessed with Europe, this is WHY its so hard and not a blessing.
We dont have the depth NOW to put teams like Palace away and this team is running on fumes. And this is JUST with playin"
I am torn I think saying we achieved it seems to be naturally recognised more though then Mossi g out but I agree we could struggle with both and prem will relish any opportunity to take us down if they sense it
Yes, exactly. I don't get this obsession with Europe. Yes, eventually it will be nice to get into and play in European Cup competitions but at the moment we simply do not have the squad depth to add another X number of games to the season.
We've done very well this season and exceeded most if not many of the pre-season predictions.
↳
Yes, Palace are in the final of the conference league and have dropped to 15th to get there. West Ham and Spurs suffered as well. It gives me pause.
But the thing is we actually could win the Conference and if prem form suffered I’m sure we’d blow it out, certainly blow out the cup games. 9 of the bench and B team members play those.
↳
Then build up the squad? Seems to be the play. Benham won't just sit on his hands if we get Europe
↳
I could 1000% see him selling another minority share to get more cash to level us up if we made Europe
Honestly , we’d like peck at some of the carcasses of wolves and west ham

"I don’t like bashing players because they’re human, but man, why does Schade think it’s a good idea to fall every time he is on the box? I realised that, in my head he was still living off that goal a"
Ref was handing out soft pens so maybe he thought he could get one too
He lacks the confidence in himself to try to take a shot and goes for a dive?
I just want him gone. Adds nothing to the team imo...
↳
Try to dribble and playing solo, look for a fault all the time. No real help to the team he's fast that's it

If Sarr was awarded a penalty, Collins should be awarded one

Big opportunity here. Crystal is not playing all of their starters being safe from relegation and a cup to still play for. Bees need to take advantage of it.

That was the second. First was a Sarr penalty early on.

Should have won that, thought we played really well. Mostly just hoping that Richards is okay!

This Palace team just has so much character, so many ballers. Brentford are such a dead team in comparison, zero sauce they're like Fulham or something.

They should be all embarrassed with this performance. Shite all around. Wouldn't mind losing if they gave it their all but they're on the beach

There's so little movement off the ball today it's astounding, and the forward passing is dire. Shocking effort with this much on the line.
