Parish has convinced Roy we are gonna spend in the summer, so he'll sign a new contract. Palace won't sign anyone and Roy is too much of a gent to walk away, so it's a win win for Parish lol.
Seriously though,I don't understand this. Why give Roy an extension and money to bring in some players when he won't play our technically better players so he'll bring in players that suit his system...but he's not gonna be here long term. So why? Why not bring in a new younger manager and give him money? See my first point lol

Yes, don't think the phone lines will be busy I won;t be renewing

If Roy has any sense he will insert a clause in the contract to make it conditional upon strengthening the squad after all he can't need the money

Parish eventually found a manager who will take it and his approach to overseeing a full squad ready for the league season. Holes here and there and players filling in for long periods in very unnatural positions. Pair that with the most safety conscious manager in the country and eventually people going get the hump. I accept the means to an end argument when the results are happening but when they aren’t I question what goes on in the attacking third, which almost nothing. Nothing. I said we were lucky in the first half of this season but got shouted down by the usual disciples.

When I’m watching the home games I do wonder why I’m there. It’s really armchair lounge stuff. If it was at home on tv after Sunday lunch and wine I would easily fall asleep. Tbh sometimes I’m half watching at home.

This probably reflects the views of vast swathes of our supporters.
Watching the team is certainly NOT entertaining, indeed an exceedingly hard watch.
I don't look forward to games at Selhurst Park and I have to travel several miles from the south coast about a 2 hour journey each way.
A defeat today on the back of an abject performance and I shall be incandescent with rage with my dear wife expecting a tirade.

However in the final analysis if Hodgson keeps us in the PL he will have met his objective.

Takes me about an hour and a half. Through an technical error I didnt renew my season ticket and now play sport every Saturday instead. I dont miss giving up my entire Saturdays and spending the best part of £100 to watch the crap Roy serves up every game.

The board wont give cash to Roy as they dont trust him with money and dont really mind if he goes.

Parish oversold the positives in his interview and was still a bit wolly. But it sounds like he at least knows what the critisms of him are.

Had to read between the lines to see what he has been unhappy about. One of the more interesting points is that he seems unhappy with the lack of progress we've made with giving young talent an opportunity to develop. Something we will never get with Roy.
