Evening all. I'm doing a quick piece for RAWK website and if any of you have the time I'd appreciate it if you could answer the following questions. Cheers Mods, if it's in the wrong place please move. Thanks.
How do you look back on Holloway's tenure? Holloway left with 3 points out of 24 (I think). Even then, we're you resigned do being relegated?
How has he changed things? Looking forward, has Pulis created a rod for his own back will fans expect more? Who needs to be shown the exit door this summer and why? What's the budget looking like for any recruitment? Any youth players close to making a breakthrough? I was at Anfield and travelling support were excellent. It arguably even better at home. What do you attribute this to? Do you think Palace can consolidate their position in the Premier League over the next few seasons? Liverpool now What has impressed you about Liverpool this season? Do you think Brendan Rodgers has what it takes to be a consistent manager at the top level?
Do you think Liverpool played into Chelsea's hands last week, therefore they have only themselves to blame? Style or substance. Is 'winning' football all that matters regardless of method? (Seems to be a current hot topic)

Holloway's tenure for me was typically Palace, a ride on rickety big dipper come log flume. The game before he took control we pumped Ipswich to go top, from then on in I did think we would go down at that point as well as before the season had kicked off, like most I was none to confident with our summer signings. On the other hand I thought we were doing well, no one was whipping us. Gritty team performances was all I really expected, however, he has got them playing extraordinarily well. I am still amazed we are safe. Cardiologist was hoping for some more work this april/may, his new ferrari is now on hold. Holloway had his work cut out due to the well publicised scatter gun approach, after getting all those players in and some real late in the window he then had to gel them and get them all to know each other. TP has benefited from not having this period to deal with, that being said he has woeked a mini miracle, I have no idea what he has instilled, but bless his cotton socks. I don't think he has yet set himself a benchmark, we still have to survive the famous second season syndrome, maybe after that some will start demanding champions league victories, for me though O just like looking down at The benders, the neanderthals and the clowns. No one should be shown the exit door, the squad have produced this miracle, some have been better than others but I can't think of anyone who has played their part who should go, maybe some of the loaned out players, Kebe for instance. Not too sure on the budgets, I hope we stick to our current way of spending, nothing too extravagant whilst improving and with sensible contracts in place. Messi would be nice though. Being so far from home I am a little out of touch on the youth team. the support both home and away just seems to get better and better I hope so, as a fan who lives in another country the coverage this season has been excellent. The all out attack system you seem to have, reminds me of the Liverpool of the 80's, even Suarez has one me over a bit (still think he's a nasty little cłnt) but he has calmed down on the diving, racially abusing, boting and spitting and his football is second to nne. Sterling, Sturridge and Henderson have also come on leaps and bounds. BR has been producing good successful (with what he had)football for a few years now, he looks like he could be a great coach, maybe one day England will again produce a great coach. Strength in depth, a couple of injuries to key players and you could be in trouble. Yes, in all fairness you played your normal game, but should know that with jose he will change tactics accordingly, not the most entertaining manager but he adjusts his teams very when when he needs to. A mixture is required if a team is to stay successful. Bar$a are getting sussed out now and Martino is struggling to implement a different approach or a plan B. 9-0 revenge good luck winning the league, just not at selhurst though.

Relegation How do you look back on Holloway's tenure? Got us up,then nearly brought us down Holloway left with 3 points out of 24 (I think). Even then, we're you resigned do being relegated? Yes
Wasnt sure,best of the bunch out there at the time How has he changed things? Fitness,teamwork,fitness Looking forward, has Pulis created a rod for his own back will fans expect more? Of course many fans will want more and start to moan when it doesnt happen,after our first defeat next season there will be at least 1 TP out thread Who needs to be shown the exit door this summer and why? None as far as I know,few out on loan maybe a good idea What's the budget looking like for any recruitment? 30 bob Any youth players close to making a breakthrough? Hope so ,weve only got 30 bob I was at Anfield and travelling support were excellent. It arguably even better at home. What do you attribute this to? The HF have been excellent this year but we were good before Do you think Palace can consolidate their position in the Premier League over the next few seasons? Hope so Liverpool now What has impressed you about Liverpool this season? S.A.S have been bloody great Do you think Brendan Rodgers has what it takes to be a consistent manager at the top level? If he carries on like he is then yes
Dont really follow you,so no idea Do you think Liverpool played into Chelsea's hands last week, therefore they have only themselves to blame? Wasnt interested didnt see the game Style or substance. Is 'winning' football all that matters regardless of method? (Seems to be a current hot topic) Well we aint Barcelona...so 3 points is the name of the game,once we reach the magic 40pts mark then lets play fancy
9-0 we need to get that off our back or the 4-3 in the semi
