I couldn't shake off this feeling that Pellegrino was a one hit wonder who had done nothing much of note until he had a good season with an unfancied club then promptly left. There was always something Pardewesque about his achievements so I'm glad that we went the Dutch route. If the board back him with a couple of decent signings (especially a quality centre half) then I don't think that anyone can blame Parish if it all goes pear shaped Excellent post totally agree.

The past few transfer windows I've seen posts saying the squad was the deepest it has ever been. Then things went pear shaped and sure enough Parish and the board took their unfair share of abuse. It's simply the nature of the beast. Edited by kenbarr (23 Jun 2017 6.16am)

do you remember a 3-3 draw at Selhurst back in the 74-75 season in div 3 when the green army had about 2000 in the old Whitehorse and three argyle fans ran on the pitch at half time one with a leather jacket and a green and white striped scarf and dribbled the ball up to the Holmesdale end to all round booing before booting the ball into the goal at the Holmesdale end? us in our second season in red and blue stripes and Plymouth (with rafferty and mariner, and maybe david kemp?) in green and white stripes. interesting that argyle, Bristol rovers and Cardiff used to bring a big mob of nutters with them - nice that Cardiff have got up to the level the size of the club deserves, be nice to see the other two clubs yo-yoing between champ and league 1 rather than slumming it in league 2 - proper big city clubs with hard core fans.

Should Frank join us I hope he revolutionizes our academy just how Ajax academy was. This will be a good appointment for every player. The likes of Kai Kai etc for the first time have a genuine chance of making a first team spot there own. Not been so excited in a potential appointment in ages. And he turned down other offers to come to us. A

Seems he's doing a similar role at Ajax already and until I just looked on Wiki, I hadn't appreciated that during their many years as players the two really did come as a package.

FDB has been suggested to have been SP's 1st choice target for our replacement manager all along. I am sure we will all know the full story shortly. I really like the fact that once again SP and Palace work extremely hard and succeed in conducting business privately and on their own terms. However the whole process does appear to have been a lengthy in terms of time but there may also be valid reasons for this?
