A good time to be playing Palace?

Crystal Palace appear to be in disarray. Tony Pulis departed on the eve of the new season and now technical director Iain Moody has resigned and prospective new manager Malky Mackay (who briefly played for WHU and wasn't very good under Pards) has been kicked into touch over those terrible text messages. Any other team playing them might be optimistic, but Palace are playing West Ham and we have an awful habit of ending other team's crises. My fear is that caretaker gaffer Keith Millen will suddenly prove himself to be a tactical genius. Just for once though, let us please take advantage of a team that is floundering.
