Colin blames Rafa

Palace lost the home leg of their Championship play-off 2-1 to Bristol City yesterday. After the game Colin refused to accept the defeat was down to his own tactical incompetence and instead blamed the defeat on Rafael Benitez's decision to rotate his squad against Fulham over a year ago. Probably.

Colin also claimed thousands of Liverpool fans agree with him and have written to him to tell him so. He claims so many Reds have written letters to him that the postman did his back in and was unable to deliver them all which is why he never received any.
