No handshake before the final whistle, says Neil Warnock:
Neil Warnock has vowed not to shake hands with Jose Mourinho before the end of Chelsea’s visit to Selhurst Park this afternoon

“If I’m winning 3-0, I won’t walk off, that’s all I can say. I don’t know what Mourinho will do. And I won’t laugh if he does a double somersault on the touchline either.”

‘He looks after his Chelsea players’: Neil Warnock praises José Mourinho's management style:
http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/524058/Warnock-Mourinho-Chelsea-Crystal-Palace

"Jose Mourinho talks about players going through brick walls for him. You want your players to do things on a match day and show how much they care. It's lovely when that happens."

"I like Jose. He looks after his players. You don't get anywhere without being a players' manager. You only have to listen to people like John Terry and Frank Lampard and what they think about him.

"And I like it when he's the underdog, because he's not always the favourite. People are waiting to write him off but he gets the result because he's always tactically astute. Coaching-wise, he has a philosophy."

God I'm hungry, I don't like 1am kick offs

HT: Crystal Palace 0-1 Chelsea

Having withstood some early pressure from the hosts, the Blues took the lead on 6 minutes and have been largely dominant since. Azpi's yellow a disappointment, but the hilarity of the home side reducing itself to 10 completely idiotically literally moments later will both even the game back up and provide comic relief for its remainder.

Crazy game! Laughing

Must say, well done the referee. After the Martin Atkinson horrorshow a fortnight ago, seeing a competent, consistent officiating performance is well welcomed. Both were sendings-off, and both were off.
