I remember walking out of the Southampton game a couple of years ago when the fans, for the first time as a whole, really turned on Warnock and thinking that has to be the end now. He went very quickly afterwards. I remember the fans really turning on Burley at Millwall and he was gone within the hour. As you say, the same happened with Holloway. As a fan group which is generally quite forgiving and loyal, I think on the whole we are a lot more accurate than others clubs as to when the time is right. Generally once our fans on the whole make their feelings known, the club tends to feel the same. The murmurings around Pardew a while ago which caused a bit of booing/drowning out in the crowd was probably an accurate indication then that there was pressure and he survived that one with a couple of results. It's getting to the point now that I think there's enough of a swell that, as others have said, the drum could stop on Saturday. I disagree with some people's notion that the HF make the decision. On the whole, I think the fans are fairly in tune with one another. I can't remember the last time a manager had this much pressure, lost the next game and survived. 26th January 2010 - Enter Administration 2nd May 2010 - D-Day 1 - Survival at Hillsborough 1st June 2010 - D-Day 2 - Survival at Lloyds 7th June 2010 - CPFC2010 exchange contracts.

Parish is his own man and he is well aware of the fan's opinions as he looks in on the BBS and perhaps this forum too

I'm not sure what type of atmosphere there will be on a whole not just the HF. If they don't sing then it'll be very quiet and that will be the end I imagine. The ups and downs of Palace have left me older than my years

I dont think any other fans in the country would have put up with the results for as long as we have. Has been evident for months that Pardew is not up to the job, his tactics or lack of them, his substitutions and team formation has been iffy from the outset. He has turned a fairly solid defence into a shambles and a hard working unit into a team that gets walked all over at times. Cannot recall the HF ever turning on a Manager vocally but i actally hope they do Saturday and that the whole ground joins in. If Parish doesnt listen then he knows he will be inline for some justified stick too.

Are you seriously trying to say this was just a quiet after-match drink and not an attempt to court a very influential fans' group? Never mind drama, if you think that you're seriously deluded.

Interesting that the fans turned on Warnock after we played Southampton and it was after we beat them Pardew joined the HF for a pint. And who are tomorrow's opponents?

If we win tomorrow then he'll probably get a stay of execution, then when the next bad run inevitably comes Big Sam will have been snapped up by another ailing club and it'll be too late for the new man to get who we need in January.
