However his position would be largely untenable then as it would be almost at the same position as when he took over from Warnock. Looking at the next 6 games and our present woes I can easily see the club in this position. I wouldn't be surprised if the owners aren't already actively pursuing options.

I can fully understand the support for AP, especially as an ex-player we would of course all like to see him being successful, but the facts are that its not happening, just look at the facts, 9 goals conceded from set play this season, worst in PL, 92/92 in terms of points gained in 2016, 10 clean sheets since 01/2015, lowest with Morecambe, 10. poor on field communication (City 2nd on Saturday), it just can't go on this a results business and if he were being paid on performance he would owe the club money!

AP has been unlucky. We're a couple short at the back and arguably further up the pitch too, constant injuries have caused major disruption. He had an average group playing some terrific stuff last season, got us to a cup final and has forged an exciting if not settled style of play. Moving forward if we can strengthen a couple of decent squad players in January (replacements for kelly, ledley and campbell) then I believe we can go on a run second half of the season, maybe a run similar that of the one at the beginning of the last. IF we were at crisis point, ie had been in the bottom 3 for a couple of weeks, OR were reliant on places because these Yanks had actually started funding a new selhurst, then I may contemplate the idea of him leaving. As it stands though I believe it to be totally the wrong time and a little distastful, we are 1 win off mid-table in the best league in the world. He has to stay IMO, the disruption will do us no good ad besides there aren't exactly many options out there. 1/6/2010.a new era.we made it everyone!!!lets get the ball rolling for another 105 years of proud history.thank you cpfc2010. palace forever.eeaaaaaaaaaaaaaggglless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As for the AP vs Pulis comparison, by season in reverse order: Goals against Pulis: 48, 51, 48, 45, 53. Avg 49. AP 51, 51, 59, 68, 51. Avg 56. A difference of 0.18 goals per game. League position Pulis: 14, 13, 11, 13, 14. Average league position 13th. 15, 10, 10, 16, 5. Avg 11th. So, Pulis' sides are better defensively, but he's been outperformed on average in the league. Pardew's gained three top half finishes with little money spent. Pulis, as we all know, had one of the highest net spends at Stoke.

for me the problem is that he's invoked a style which doesn't suit this squad and the defensive lapses are down to coaching and the attempts to play out against teams like m. city are and will continue to be disastrous but i'd prefer to keep him and let me give him a good talking to .............

On what planet is that acceptable? The point of an improved style of football is that we win more games. Our amateur hour defending means that however well we play we will still lose and that will demoralise the squad before long so we won't even be playing well in midfield and attack. We have the best squad in the history of the club but are plummeting towards the bottom 3. Who's fault is that? Of course in the ideal world I would like Pardew to succeed in sorting it out but he has had eleven months to do that and has failed abysmally despite quality signings. I would have Pulis back like a shot despite his disgraceful behaviour but that's not possible so lets get Fat Sam in now and steady the ship before its too late.
