There has been talk of Coleman but he is tied to wales up to the 2018 World Cup and he isn't likely to just walk away from their campaign any time soon.

I'd prefer Pardew over Coleman. He's had one good run of form with Wales whilst having one of the best players in the world in his team. The rest of his managerial career is mediocre at best.

To be honest the sun are printing what everyone is saying and what is obvious. The fact that this cannot continue. There comes a point where the plug has to be pulled or we could go down. I know we are not in the drop zone at the moment and we could win at Swansea and pick up other points but based on current form we could well find ourselves with problems and the longer it goes on it may be too late to reverse the situation. The other real danger if they do want allardyce is that another club sacks their manager and takes him on while we are sitting on.our hands waiting. I have a gut feeling he's got a bit longer left at palace yet. I speak for some who are probably silently hoping we do lose on Saturday so as not to prolong the agony and drag this out any longer than is necessary. When I was a young girl my Mother said to me.. You listen here kid you're CPFC

Agreed Braunie. I think the board and i would give him the next 6 games. Swansea,Southampton and Hull we need as near to 9 points as possible. Then we play Man U,Chelsea and Watford we need 3 points. If we get near to 12 i think he will carry on,if not he will go. We will then be in January facing The Arsenal on New Years Day. New Manager to come in along with a LEFT BACK who can kick with his left foot. We stay up and create Crystal Palace History.

The thing about this Palace side, is that we really do have the quality to take points from any side, especially since Benteke has arrived and given us something up front. I thought we deserved something against City and I actually think we are in the best shape since we got promoted. You have to give credit to Pardew for some of the players he has brought in. However, I think we'd do better with a manager who can get a side to defend well. I do think prior good runs have come down to having a better drilled squad more than having a better squad - and that comes down to management. I do like what AP is trying to do, I'd love to see us succeed playing attractive open football, but if we don't get results in the next few games we may be better off playing it safe and going back into our shell a little.

I'd imagine patience is running low, poor start to the season continuing a poor year. Swansea, Southampton and Hull - All three are vital games and without at least four points, I think its game over for Pardew. Because we've really only got one 'feasible' winnable game in the following four (Watford, I'd be amazed if we get anything from Chelsea, Man Utd or Arsenal) "One Nation Under God, has turned into One Nation Under the Influence of One Drug" [Link]
