Palace is totally in their rights to petition the league to call the game off if they feel seriously disadvantaged, we also don’t know what the situation actually is behind the scenes. We got fucked by COVID and it is going to happen to almost every club at some point.

The issue at hand is whether the PL can adjudicate and assess whether requests are made in good faith and if they can establish and enforce criteria in which games should be played or called off. Whatever happens, I won’t be upset with Palace, the league needs to do its job as the governing body and handle these situations.
Good post
 
It seems that way.

Or was it just a load of dickhead 'journalists'

Makes you laugh that even the Daily Mail and Express were reporting that the game was going to be called off.
Well, it seems they tried to get the game postponed, but they're fielding a full strength team and have 7 out of a possible 9 on the bench. Vieira's absent.

Merry Cuntmas to them.
 
So Palace is full strength, more or less. Only 7 subs and a self isolating manager, but that's not exactly worth postponing over.
