Crystal Palace manager Tony Pulis was jubilant as the Eagles climbed out of the relegation zone following a 1-0 victory  on Boxing Day afternoon at Aston Villa. An injury time goal from sub Dwight Gayle secured all three points which leave Palace in 17th place in the Premier League on goal difference. A tougher test on Saturday 28th December though – when they travel to Eastlands to play championship contenders Manchester City.

It was a miserable afternoon for Crawley Town as they succumbed 2 nil at home to MK Dons. On Sunday 29th December,  the Reds face Notts County at The Broadfield Staudium, where they’ll be without Billy Clarke, who was sent off late on in the match.

Many local matches were affected by the weather, which is also expected to prevent many games over the weekend. Stay tuned to Saturday Sport on Susy 103.4 every Saturday afternoon from 2pm for all the local sports news.
