I can’t say I’ll be sorry to hopefully see an end to Roy ball but I think he’s earned our thanks and hope he enjoys relaxing until somebody calls for him to save the day. Apparently he’s left his boots at the training ground for when he comes back in January next year.

We can only express gratitude to Roy for the way he has managed the club - a total class act throughout - in a very unforgiving environment, Roy's values and principles were admired by all! I hope the fans can say "Thank You" in a PDA at some point!

It's rare for things to work out for Palace but given the situation Roy stepping down like this is the best outcome possible. Thank you for your service Roy and all the best in the future. Up the Palace.
Success will lie to you but failure always tells you the truth. |

Not only for his undeterred service to Palace but for football as a whole. How about naming a stand after a true Palace hero?
In my day, a Selfie was what you had when the wife didn't put out. |

I suppose he could always come back in March if it doesn’t work out with Glasner……

I think this has been a pretty shabby chapter in our history, with Glasner's appointment leaking out early. The fans who shouted abuse at Roy are not the kind of people we want supporting our club. He is a gent and respected throughout football and the media. They are nobodies. Let's hope that our new guy lives up to his billing, since we are apparently getting someone that is too good for us. Only results will do now, but I suspect they won't come until we get some quality back on the field.

For the sake of his health I'm glad Roy has listened to his body and his doctor. Time to call it a day, and need to find a new less stressful hobby.

It would be disengenuous of me to pretend that I haven't been calling for his head for a couple of months so, from a pure footballing perspective, I'm glad it's over now. However, it didn't sit right with me to see how toxic it became and the end and I think it's a real shame that he didn't go in the summer on a high. I hope he recovers very well and we see him back at Selhurst before the end of the season to properly say goodbye.

Well. a sad day but Mr Hodgson leaves gracefully, of course. Roy shows them the meaning of 'class'. Thanks Roy. A Palace fan, a gentleman. Thanks for everything.

Out of curiosity, does anyone know exactly what happened to Roy on the training pitch and then what the hospital said was wrong with him?
