Boss hits out after loss leads to boos and an object being thrown at him
-
Crystal Palace 0
Bournemouth 2
Senesi 25, Moore 90+1
THIS was the night when many Palace fans rounded on Roy Hodgson. Supporters made their feelings clear when Bournemouth doubled their lead in injury time to consign Palace to a third defeat in their last four matches.
Not since 2017, when Sunderland won here 4-0, has there been such a toxic atmosphere at the ground.
One fan threw an object at Hodgson as he walked off the pitch — which police said this morning they are investigating — and home fans chanted “f****** useless” after another drab display from their side.
Palace are nine points above the bottom three and unlikely to be dragged into a relegation battle, but they increasingly look like a team with no direction.
