  • I was thinking just the other day how depressing it was that they won't get relegated while Pulis is there. This season could be good.

  • Don't worry they are still South London and Proud!!! I think they could still stay up this year if they get off to a good start. Big if though? Not a good way to start the season though? And this season they might just not beat Chelsea at home again....
  • As I wrote on CL on May 6: "He might have a battle with their board over his transfer kitty this summer." I didn't dare predict he'd actually walk. What a stupid misjudgement by Parish.

    Daily Mail thinks that, apart from Malky, the other option is Neil Lennon. As if the Nigels aren't loathsome enough as it is.

    I had this exact same conversation with the Missus the other day. Glorious news, its cheered me right up.

    I reckon this'll also have the knock on effect of speeding up the next managerial sacking in the Premier League because, after what he's done at Stoke and Palace, Pulis' stock is incredibly high right now and whichever team starts slowly, the Chairman will be thinking "I can get Fix-It-Tony in for 'nowt and he might just about guarantee me another $100M in TV money next year".

    Any Chairman with even a slightly itchy trigger finger will be finding it hard to resist the urge to squeeze.

    Neil Lennon is a great shout, I really do think he could become a decent manager in England.

    Tony Pulis has left Crystal Palace following disagreements over transfer policy. Official confirmation shortly.

  • Got into office at beginning of my night shift. Was feeling a bit knackered already but having put Radio 5 on i immediately clicked on CL just knowing there would be a thread. Downfall. Demise. Capitulation. Sorry for their loyal fans? Not bloody likely ;)

    Do you think Palace fans deliberately set out to be massive knobheads?

    Lets hope after 8 seasons and counting of them finishing above us some season soon we can stop this embarrassment

    I'm a bit surprised people are digging Parrish out when he is clearly holding the purse strings tight, rather than spunking money up the wall that Pulis wouldn't give two hoots about spending and clearly wants
    some of these managers haven't got the class of a Curbishley who would accept the chairmans budget and get on with it

    if he spunks cash they get dug out for overspending , if they're a bit frugal the manager and fans moan about it , lose lose situation

    Really? I think he's rubbish.

    I think you're almost spot on about Parrish. Also, it was when Pulis got a few bigger names into the Stoke squad that he started to struggle. It's just that Parrish might have spent a bit more to keep his most valuable man onside, by way of a compromise.

    Some Powell fans really are deluded about how good a manager he is aren't they. No chance he'd be offered a prem job already.

    Palace mate of mine who's dad used to be on the board reckons Malky Mackay.

    f*ck has this been flagged for?!

    I agree Morts. Mainly shit players get over paid, don't do very well, have half a good season, and then want a massive bonus pool.

    I don't why he's leaving, or where he's gonna go,
    Pulis has got his reasons, but I just don't want to know
    Cause I couldn't give a s*** about what's going on over at Palace...

    I'll let someone else finish that

    It would have taken ages to select 37 different fonts... so I'm thinking yes.

    Agreed. I quite fancy my chances of managing Celtic. With some good coaches on my side I reckon we could win the title this season!!!

    I take this point from you and Oohaah.

    But how much have they spent in close season? And this stuff about the bonus pool doesn't seem too clever either.

    Sure keep the purse strings tight. But surely you discuss this with the manager asap in May when you know where you have finished and therefore how much TV money is coming in. It shouldn't get to a public dispute in August.

    But I am very glad it has. Glad all over, in fact.
