Disciplinary:
|
The Referee will be D. J. Gallagher
from Banbury who has given 9 yellows and 1 red in the 4 games he has
refed in Division One making him one of our softest Refs. He has also
officiated at 17 premiership games this season.
Palace have committed 430 fouls against our 340 and have received 56
yellows and 5 reds against our 59 yellows and 1 red. Apart from Referees'
anti Fulham bias, underlined by Palace collecting 3 less yellows for
90 more fouls, the 5 reds indicate a touch of indiscipline on the part
of the Eagles
Craig Harrison and Fan Zhiyi of the Eagles
have four cards each so may be a bit worried about collecting a fifth.
For the Mighty Whites Steve Finnan also has four yellows
