I agree with some of your points but would question playing younger players please tell me when Roy has played a younger player from choice and not because he got no one else to play. Like everything in this world we have a sale by date sorry to say this Roy has got to that day. Rather at pressure I would assume due to being and wanting to continue being in this league, the championship is a completely different kettle of fish, Hodgson has never ever had to deal with the player revolts witnessed by Pardew at west brom for a reason hasn't he, everyone is simply expressing misery at him and the club because of the lack of goals where I'm very sure he and parish are just as miserable about it as well, not to mention the players. Everyone is aware of the influence a goal produces to everyone on and off the pitch.

For season ticket holders that working out at about £100 a win and £30 a goal. Must be the worst value for money in the league
0 shots on goal and 0 corners against Southampton and other s*** home performances was enough for my kids to say they don’t want to bother going anymore. We fvcked Sheffield Utd off and didn’t go, but continually serving up s*** football will drive the next generation of palace fans to support other clubs. The septics, Greedman, Parish and Roy need to wake up as the shadow of relegation is a distinct possibility the way we are playing.

Everyone is aware of the influence a goal produces to everyone on and off the pitch. Went for a beer before the game on Saturday with one of my best mates - who I started going to games with along time ago. He's suffered a loss recently and couldn't risk going to the game in case it put him on a downer. As it happens - I think we played ok on Saturday but we didn't look like we were gonna score. I'd have said that trying to get a goal would have been a high priority after going behind, somewhat unfortunately. I dont know how long it took Roy to change it but the cheers when he finally brought on Andros were instructive. Also I actually think Benteke had one of his better games, showed some of this class at moments and should have scored but how does he get the nod in the middle ahead of Ayew is beyond me. He couldn't score in a brothel right now. Pushing Ayew out to the wing is a huge tactical mistake. Another is dropping Jairo. I get why he picks PvA first - we miss his speed of action and thought going forward. Thing is - our midfield is begging for some guile - so what do we get? the 2 Jimmy Macs and Luka. Functional hard work - surely we can afford one player in the midfield who can pick out a class pass? I get why people back Roy - especially after some of the unprofessional management we've suffered. I back Roy. I just do wish he'd play some of the youth and when they've played well - keep playing them.

Sounds personal that. A loss is a loss is a loss, you can’t disguise it as anything else and yet again we don’t score at home and as for digging me for pointing out we are 14th when we are actually 14th, that is frankly ridiculous. If we finished 18th by 1 point then that is enough to be relegated so I really don’t understand what you are trying to say. I didn't intend at all to be personally rude so I'm sorry if you felt I had been, I find everything incredibly frustrating to read that's all and you could have been any one of many that I happened to comment on, no malice intended ok ..we are all suffering Palace lol

We all love this team, the vast majority of us hate the way we are currently playing and fear that as close as the top 6 position in the league is, then so is the 18th.

I was speaking to someone over the weekend who had been watching Soccer Saturday. When discussing Palace, Jeff Stelling actually said he had been speaking to Mark Bright, and the main objective is not to put the club into jeopardy. Having seen the club rescued from administration twice, the current owners arent looking to get into a position where that could happen again. That should spell out to everyone that at present we wont be spending ££££'s. This is unlikely to change unless there are new owners. What is more concerning is that we currently have a manager who can keep us afloat on this small budget. And even he has raised concerns this weekend about the aging squad. Where we are now is maybe the best we will achieve.

Roy is now the bookies favourite to be the next Premier manager to be sacked, his odds have tumbled from 33/1 to evens.

Has people will see from my posts I'm not a fan of the way we are playing under Roy, but all this about sacking or him walking out away is rubbish. Roy is a gentlemen and I don't think he is the type of man to walks away and nor should he.Sacking him would be mad unless our position get much much worse than it is now.I also don't think we should renew his contact like we have with some of the players.Roy please tire to be more positive about the way we play just have ago who knows you may like it.
