Not here to gloat or laugh or say we told you so.
But been reading palace fans on twitter and watching their games mainly via MOTD, nut really history is repeating.
The long winless runs, the baffling subs, the dreadful football, alienation of players (usually due to inability to man manage), the absolute spin "we play good attacking football" yet his teams are toothless.
At palace as at Newcastle, and his other clubs starts off well, gets his feet under the table then it all goes wrong.
It's down to his brilliance when the team win, but its bad luck, conspiracies, bad refs, the transfer window etc etc when it goes badly.

This man will ruin everything that's enjoyable about supporting your club. He'll divide the squad, divide the support and make it a pain in the arse to attend games because it's so dull.

I can see it has already started by skimming through this board. Don't fall into the trap of battered wife syndrome "well who else is better". Get out while you can

And then he left and they got a long run into the Championship.

This season is a big test for Pardew as he has finally received the financial backing and control that Newcastle never gave him and we could previously not afford to provide. If we can finish in the top 10 in what is a very strong league this year then I think he will have proven himself.

I will admit to being concerned after the WBA game, but he has shown that his talk of a new system is actually real and is showing signs of gestation.

If we carry on progressing with the new style of football i will be happy to finish in the same places as Newcastle did under AP. We are not a big club so we will get bad spells it would be the same under any manager even Rafia Benetez.
