Oliver Glasner has repeatedly hit out at the unprecedented schedule Crystal Palace face in recent weeks, with Thursday night’s clash against KuPS followed by a trip to Leeds on Saturday - before a Carabao Cup tie at Arsenal on Tuesday.
And the Austrian is unlikely to row back on those criticisms after Palace were held to a 2-2 draw by the Finnish outfit having made 11 changes, although this was a spirited display from his side.
The draw meant the Eagles finished 10th in the Conference League table, and they will now be forced into two extra fixtures in a play-off round in February.
