Did his best. Liked his stance on agents. Not sure if he is still a fan though. He is exceptional on the radio though. Very clear and concise and tells it as it is.

It's all been said really. Did a lot of good for our club and I particularly admired his tough stance with agents. He, unfortunately, lacked the financial support and/or the business acumen to take us further.

Speaks a lot of sense about football generally and I like to think he still has a soft spot for Palace. Didn't he use to live in a suite at the Grosvenor House Hotel? Always thought that was cool.

Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.

It all started really with Noades selling the club (but not the ground) to Goldberg for a large amount which probably busted him. The separation of club and ground was the cause of the club having financial problems for so long. Noades probably had reason to do what he did but. . . Fast forward to Jordan and he did have some good ideas some with the club and some from outside. Jordan then bought the ground back (no semantics please) and other people got involved (some still involved). The real problem was Neil Alexand
er who while being paid and ostensibly working for Jordan was also giving information to our current owners (well most of them).

As far as Jordan goes I probably wouldn't trust him too much but he was and is a big Palace fan which is what I would want from a chairman (that and lots of money and good acumen).

Enjoying getting up later and not having someone who knows better than me (apart from the missus of course).

The only thing better when Simon was in charge was the burgers nice wimpy ones

walking down the holmesdale road to see the palace aces!

I like him mostly, loves Palace and tried his best for us weather he failed or succeeded I commend him for that, I just think he acts way to salty towards Parish, like it didn't go your way Simon get over it and stop having little niggles at SP every now and then. Other then that nothing against the bloke.

I'm like any other man except with 1 difference, you cut me I bleed but when I bleed my blood is not just red, its RED AND BLUE PALACE TILL THE END!!

I have a couple of stories about SJ. And also his thwat of a brother Dominic.
I think he is full of confidence in certain situations, but doesn't make real friends easily.

The Pocket Phone Shop was where SJ sailed close to the wind as far as tying people into long-term phone contracts. He jumped ship at the right time, and into Palace.
Found severely lacking in 'people skills', along with DJ (hanging around SJ like a bad smell). SJ plshed off a lot of workers, from programme sellers, to stewards, to suppliers and other football club owners.
Thought he was invincible.
SP came and took his toys for tuppence, because SJ didn't know how to treat people.

I disengage, I turn the page.
