Crystal Palace have canceled a trip to Dubai for the squad after defeat to Sunderland.

Eagles chiefs decided to clip their players' wings after the lifeless performance against the Black Cats, says The Sun.

Sam Allardyce made the same trip with Sunderland last year before saving them from the drop.

But Palace bigwigs are worried about how the fans would react if they saw the players effectively on holiday.

Tensions are running high at Selhurst Park as supporters clashed with stewards and abused Big Sam, with one arrested for trying to confront Damien Delaney.
