When the style doesn't work he changes his mind on the playing style, sacks the manager and brings in another that will manage to the new / old style. If rumours are to be believed our players have a direct line to the chairman and he makes decisions based on their complaints and he also seems to be heavily involved in which players we buy and sell so it seems to me that he is very much a part of the management team I think you'll find all chairman/owners dictate the style now days.

If players had concerns about de Boer, then who else would they raise it with? Would you prefer they had been more public? Things clearly weren't right under FDB, above any issues with Parish. It wasn't Parish who insisted on playing a formation we weren't suited to, or suddenly introducing Joel Ward as a wing back? Parish sees this on a daily basis and if the players were looking as confused in training as they did on the pitch then I'm not surprised he decided to make a change. Likewise, in terms of players we have bought and sold, by the sounds of it the two he has worked hardest to bring in have been Zaha and Sakho, and I think most Palace fans would say they were worth it and wanted them to happen? Was he 'interfering' when he backed managers to bring in players like Mandanda or Riederwald? Edited by Username (26 Sep 2017 7.01pm) Employee of the month is a good example of how someone can be both a winner and a loser at the same time.

It was Parish that wanted to change the formation to a more passing game and the only reason that Joel Ward was playing as a wing back was because Parish didn't buy a proper one. If Parish sees the players looking confused on the training pitch every day then that just proves my point as he shouldn't have been anywhere near the training ground.

What about the players who were released like Campbell and whilst I agree that most fans wanted Sakho I think that most of us would have preferred the money pot divvied up slightly differently to include a couple of strikers and a left wing back as well as a goalkeeper

This thread is full of conjecture about what SP has and hasn't done without much fact really being known. He's certainly been involved in a couple of poor decisions with regard to de Boer's appointment and the lack of forwards although personally I'd rather see a kid put in over Fraizer Campbell and think that RLC would be decent. A couple of recent things come to mind about his supposed interference in team matters. One being that Allardyce made a point of saying he'd been backed "big time" in the January window. The other that Allardyce was happy enough to let him into the dressing room after the Sunderland game to rinse the overpaid and underperforming players. A manager will establish targets and transfer policy / funds discuss with the Chairman and / or recruitment personnel. One or both will then engage with agents. I think Allardyce himself said Defoe was too much money. If the Guardian is to be believed de Boer had little or no idea of the transfer market. With regard to the Twitter stuff, although perhaps unwise who really cares ? Just tried to defend himself a bit when he was getting battered on forums and social media.

Nobody complained when Campbell went, he was regularly slated on here. The club can never please everyone, if we didn't sign Sakho and bought a second rate couple of strikers and goalkeeper. They would be wrong in many people eyes. How can most people want Sakho and not want him but the money spread around. You need to stop posting so much and clear your head.

It doesn't specify style but it's definitely more passing to keep possession. That whole wing back issue was a complete insult to our intelligence. Well I speak for myself. Not sure how anyone else viewed it. I would've had Frank answering what he's doing the moment he muttered 3-4-3. That was just stupid beyond belief and against 'gradual'. Thinking Campbell is good enough as a back up for an injured Benteke is stupid and reckless. If parish thinks Campbell is good enough to cover for Benteke for anything up to 4 months because of an injury until January then we have serious problems. The judgement there is so poor it's not worth going any further. And then there's this talk of £40 million, which I don't believe. But if it is true, why is he aiming to keep Campbell? Is it because the wad comes out in January windows when we're desperate and get overcharged, or is it because like all the ex pros employed at the club, its the norm to have a flick through that list first? To think and value Campbell at £8mil or 9 is so desperate for a reason for this it's untrue. Then finally the more modest sensible bids did come out. Just so late we were there to be taken advantage of. Edited by Rudi Hedman (26 Sep 2017 8.30pm) COYP

I don't think he will be that lucky again, but if he is, it'll be because Roy's excellence in dealing with this shower he's having to use and not because of any 'clever' move by Parish. Make no mistake, having one striker in any league, especially the richest and most competitive leagues over the whole season, is not clever. Negligent is what it is. COYP
