Disappointing yes and not progress given my understanding is that the club interviewed him a few years ago before he went to Burnley and deemed he wasn't what palace were looking for. Surely going back on that decision now wouldn't look good it'd be a bit like meeting up with your ex girlfriend and trying to decide whether you should make another go of it! Personally I would rather the club take a gamble on someone like Ryan giggs than go for Dyche and I don't even like giggs and never thought I'd find myself suggesting we should go for him but he would be preferable to dyche!

Does anybody have any news updates of chase for new CPFC manager to give? What progress is being made?

I'm all for Dyche and anyone who thinks Pellagrino is progression needs to have a long hard look at football.

Pellegrino is a poor mans pardew, got sacked, went to Argentina...didn't pull up any trees whilst there with two different clubs. Then finished mid table in la liga and got to a cup final. At least Pardew has got to two cup finals and lost. When we finished mid-table and got to a cup final, many on here were maoning. Now we want a man with less premier league experience and with a lesser win% record and we see that as progression.

FDB I would hold in similar regard, did well with Ajax and was horrific at Inter. Team turned against him and struggled tactically when up against it.

Dyche is right, ppl hold overseas managers in such high regard. Marco silver got hull relegated and look how people are talking about him. Didn't win away all year. You get Fat Sam or Pulis and they would have kept Hull up.

All I'm saying is I feel that Dyche should be held on par if not greater than these other two. We need a good manager, not just a foreign fancy name.

Hope this doesn't affend the sensitive butterflies. Thought this picture was funny.

Brilliant a picture is worth thousand words!

This is seriously worrying, with most clubs reporting back for pre-season preparation at the end of the month and we are still without a manager, no action in the transfer market, which despite what some think we desperately need as we have some serious big holes in the current first eleven and even more so in the squad. SP states he is looking for a long term manager, we have had 7 in the last seven years and this one when appointed will be number eight, so does such a manager exist?, surely results and league position will decide how long he stays, whatever we do need this sorted and quick now!
