Palace post match reaction

Last updated : 07 November 2007 By Michael Morris

"The referee made the decision far too quickly and should have consulted the linesman because it was well outside the penalty area," said Jones.

"Once we had scored we took control and with a bit more quality we could have gone on to win.

"Palace came with a game plan, stuck to it and have gone away with a point.

"We started well but after they scored the pressure mounted on us and we missed a couple of late chances.

"I don't think it was the best performance by a referee that I have seen as some of his decisions were strange."

"I am never happy with a point particularly tonight because I tried to win the game but we are improving all the time," said the new Palace boss.

"We were positive, particularly in the second half, because I would have been happy going in at half-time a goal down.

"We lacked a little depth in the final third and they had chances to nick it towards the end but I think we deserved a point."
