'Shame the season isn't over' jokes Alan Pardew

Crystal Palace manager Alan Pardew jokes it is a shame that the Premier League season can't end now, with his side second in the Premier League table.

The Eagles boss says league leaders Manchester City are in "very good form" ahead of their early season top-of-the-table match at Selhurst Park.

A Palace victory would ensure they surpass their current highest-ever points tally after five games of a top-flight season (11).
