Parrish did hire De Boer... if he makes another mistake on his replacement, they'll struggle to come back from it!Fortune 82nd Minute said:Hang on, let's not get too excited.
Steve Parrish is a a good Chairman. (Hate to say it but he is). He won't hang around long before he sacks De Boer if results don't improve quickly. And there are enough good players there for a new manager to turn things around quickly.
But it is fun at the moment watching them struggle!
They've been dodging bullets for a few years now. Apart from Brighton, I'm not convinced there are many worse teams this year.0 -
West Ham seem to be giving them a run for their money.
Different team once Cabaye and Zaha are back I'm afraid.0 -
I like Zaha. He runs around so much and scores a world class goal every three months. It convinces people that he's decent. The perfect undercover agent.
Cabaye played at the heart of a team that won three games in a year, so I'm fine with him too!5 -
Same old shit as last year unfortunately , they'll give us fake hope and they'll get out of it unfortunately just like the scum will ....10

Stunned by how fast their fans got too big for their boots. To be fair, I have a couple of Nigel mates and they are decent blokes; I think once you are PL you just get a raft of nob head hangers on immediately. Read that Holmesdaleend forum end of last year and the amount of fans saying they would not renew if Allardyce was still manager as they should be looking for better was stunning.3

Think people are giving their squad too much credit.1

I know a lot of Palace fans (hard to get away from them around here) and although there are a few genuine ones who've followed forever, most are right Premier League hangers on. The Holmesdale Fanatics are the most embarrassing thing in English football, their atmosphere is not actually bad but the plastic, European ultra impression is just embarrassing. I can see it going completely tits up for them in the next few years, they've seemed to ride their luck for ages and it's gonna run out sometime, there players aren't great and the PL is much stronger, especially at the bottom, than last year. (No Sunderland etc).0

I agree - Newcastle and Brighton are pants by Premier League standard. And the Huddersfield "fairy story" is unlikely to last - expect 8 consecutive defeats as the clocks go back.killerandflash said:

As oohaa says above, they will give us fake hope but I still expect there to be 3 worse teams in the League than them.5 - Sponsored links:

Hopefully Sakho won't go there, as he made a real difference when he signed for them last season1

£25m for a centre half ffs we really are on a different planet football wise .
Stick in what they paid for Benteke and they could have bought our whole club from fecking Roland0 -
Delighted to see it's them in turmoil, but ffs modern football, three games and he's virtually on a ultimatum already. Will it ever be just a bit of fun again?Callumcafc said:9 -
I don't understand why he was appointed. Anyone with football knowledge understands that Palace's relative success is down to hoofball and not football.
Why appoint a coach who wants to play football, with a squad of players not suited for it ?3 -
It smacks of them doing a Stoke, where grit and hoofball kept them up, before transitioning to the style of a mediocre midtable team. Thing is, Stoke were much, much better at what they did than Palace, who don't really have the grit. They've just relied on three teams to be worse than them at defending.Covered End said:I don't understand why he was appointed.

It's perfect that they tried to rush this. They should have been seeking a direct replacement for Pulis/ Allardyce. Absolute morons.8 -
if you look at the teams they've played;
swansea and hudds ( you would expect to be bottom half of the table )
and they were played off the park
liverpool away you expect to lose.
coming up in the next 5 in the league they have;
burnley a
southampton h
man city a
man united a
chelsea h
i cant see them getting many out of that, hopefully sticks them in a rut and they achieve the same amount of points as derby did that season.7 -
Palace are a bit of a bogey team for the Scousers as well, so was pleased to see them lose up there. I still reckon Swansea are more likely to run out of luck than the Nigels, even though they won. I think this year will be closer than the last few but would still reckon they'll beat the drop unless Huddersfield really confound us all and keep this up and as long as the other relegation candidates can keep pace. There are currently 3 teams on 0 and 1 on 1, so too early to say, but so far so good.0

I think they should stick with him for a bit, he's doing a grand job so far.
Burnley away
Southampton home
Man City away
Man U away
Chelsea home
I reckon they'll probably give him those games and then sack him. New manager in place in time for the relegation 6-pointers away at Newcastle and home to West Ham at the end of October.0 -
Sakho was a big purchase for them, I was really disappointed when it went through. We need Kelly to be the main man! Fortunately, he's the only decent signing they have made, and hopefully he'll get injured.4

Why on earth would Roy Hodgson want to go there of all places?0

Who else would take him?LenGlover said:Why on earth would Roy Hodgson want to go there of all places?
Hopefully he'll follow his tactical masterstroke from the Euros and get Benteke to take all their corners!3 -
i thought id seen the last of him after his pathetic squirms after the iceland match - useless twat - SIGN HIM UP PALACE!!!.0

He quite likes their ultwas1

I believe he was born in Croydon and started his playing career there.LenGlover said:Why on earth would Roy Hodgson want to go there of all places?

Roy Hodgson might be one of those choices that'll see Palace survive (i.e. Look at the work he did with Fulham and West Brom) - Jokanovic would be a good appointment as see him as one of those who is good for the Championship but wouldnt make the step up1

I believe he went to the same school as Lennie Lawrence.Addick in SW16 said:

That lot could be playing in the Premiership for 25 years and they would still be Palarse...
Woy feckin Hodgson... bring it on!!!0 -
He was a youth player there and went to John Ruskin and played in the same school team as two Palace legends -Steve Kember and Lennie Lawrence!Addick in SW16 said:
