    Is 'Let's all laugh at someone's misfortune' the best response that people can come up with? It isn't working out for this guy at the moment, just as it wasn't for Bob Peters.
    Let's hope that we can beat Millwall, and beat them well. How about we leave it at that?

    Best price 4/9 to be the next manager sacked in championship.

    I think he will still be here by Easter. Doubt he will make end of the season though.

    Holloway is coming across exactly the same as in his final days with Palace, a beaten man, with no idea how to turn things around. His post match comments are of a man resigned to failure.
    Palace sadly replaced him with plenty of the season remaining for Pulis to do his stuff.
    By contrast Millwall have shown admirable loyalty to him, letting him bring 8 new players in, in January alone, which has made no difference, and it may be too late now, with the deficit they have to make up.

    :-)

    Well I think he is still doing a great job. He should be given a five year contract to continue building a club the fans deserve.

    Surely he has already done enough to be given the freedom of Deptford?

    It's things like going back for that Stefan Maihofer. They had him on loan at the back end of last season. If he was any good surely they would've made the deal permanent in the summer. Yet they wait until Jan this season to take him back on loan.

    PS - the Obika thing was completely different :wink:

    They did try to get him in the summer but he didn't want to sign, thought he could get a deal at Fulham instead and that didn't happen.

  • I think Ollie's position might be untenable if they lose on Saturday at home to Norwich. I think fan power might see him removed. Would give a new man (Harris ? ) ten games to turn it around. Not easy but possible.

    Their next 2 games, away to Bolton, home to Brighton are certainly more winnable

    But even if the entire Millwall crowd is against him, does ten fans chanting really reach the owner?

    Agreed. I just think another home defeat on Saturday will bring the toolbox to boiling point. It's a very unpleasant place once they have decided that you must go. I think Berylson who has been supremely loyal might just feel he has to act.

    I actually think that Millwall will come out of those three fixtures unbeaten with at least one win.

    Millwall are a complete shit stain of a football club supported by a bunch of backwards thugs. Forgive me for laughing ever more at the misfortune of anyone associated with that puddle of piss.
    Very harsh. Perhaps intellectually challenged would be better than backwards - the rest I agree with.

    Can you imagine the amount of Danny Dyer bouncing around they're going to be doing if we do manage to beat them, which by that point will surely stick the knife in their chances to stay up?

    If it happens, and its a huge IF......It will be glorious.
