To be honest it was bitterly disappointing not to have another transfer window to try and make it my own team." Impressive, because even Ray Charles could see that one coming, and he's blind and dead.

I think Pardew will start strongly and going into the first advertising break people will thik he's playig a blinder But then, after the restart something will happen. I can't put a finger on it. But every joke will fall flat, and his anecdotes will flounder. He'll go into a spin then, and won't be able to pull out, mainly because he refuses to recognise it. He'll make some baffling changes to his repertoire Eventually the producer will be forced to replace him.

He's been on nearly 40 mins and not a word about Palace yet apart from saying we are a team that fell apart on set pieces this season. Then was very quick to mention we had a specialist set-piece coach (Millen I assume) that was not him!

Hold on, a bit more on Palace now. Pardew says he's "very disappointed" he was not given the opportunity to improve the team during the transfer window. Said no cover at left back was a killer after Pape's car crash. Says results did not improve under BS until his signings bedded-in. Okay Alan, but would you have brought those players in? or would you have signed more of the likes of Mutch, Chungy, McCarthy etc.....

Yeah but let's be honest Townsend was not playing for Pardew so can't count him he has only started showing what a good player he is since Sam has come in.

He managed to get Benteke to deteriorate as well. It would make no difference if he had signed Messi and Ronaldo, he would have turned them into s***e as well. Giving him the January transfer budget to Pardew would have been dangerous but letting him "develop" the squad any longer would have been suicide. Edited by chateauferret (23 Apr 2017 11.14am)

Where did Pards spot him? A club our size need some bargains in the transfer market, some diamonds in the rough, and in that capacity Pardew utterly, utterly failed.

He just failed to train him properly. Benteke was probably just about the going price but again failed to train him properly. All the rest - s***e. Selling Jedinak was a bad idea given that he did f*** all to replace him. Does anyone really think he would have recruited Milivojevic? Could he have gone to Klopp and asked for Sakho? No. He was a bad transfer operator but a f***ing appalling squad trainer and his tactics were bollocks too. Edited by chateauferret (23 Apr 2017 11.23am)

Add Tomkins to the sh1te under Pardew, better under Sam and Sam. Add Hennessey as well. Oh and Kelly. And Wardy. And Cabaye. And Puncheon.
