When and where did he announce himself as the the best chairman and owner we ever had, i must have missed it, or did you make it up?
The only other chairman who compares with Parish was Whaits, all the others were rubbish,

Yeah, do you believe in Santa and the tooth fairy as well

You must be very frustrating in person. Do people walk away during conversations?

If bigger clubs have more muscle and spending power on transfers because their owners are ‘willing to pump funds into the club’ then they would never have bothered with anything other than outspending each other and you would’ve had more clubs winning the league than Liverpool for years and then Man Utd for years.

You would also have clubs always operating with huge losses because attendances mean nothing when they outspent Palace through the decades. What you’ve said is so stupid I’ll have to give you credit for it.

The tin pot nature of the prezzer and associated quotes is still as unprofessional and cringeworthy today as it was 5 years ago.
Talk about being out of your depth! SP showed his level then.

Well, top players looking for clubs aren't going to be attracted to palace on displays such as these, are they?

Easy translation to points.

Both are at fault but predominantly the board are wasting our potential as a club

Roy is a manager who is happy to accept mediocrity. That's why he doesn't make changes until it's too late - we're 6 points clear of the bottom three, so we can afford to lose this one. It doesn't really matter. But that's exactly why he was brought in.

Parish & co could not be making it plainer that 17th is OK. 17th is success in fact. And he's got a manager that is perfectly happy to play his part. Why do you think we played a reserve team against Championship Middlesbrough when a League Cup Quarter Final was up for grabs? (which ended up being at home to f***ing BURTON) Because that wasn't what was important to the club? Trophies? A cup run? Ha! Who cares? Perpetual mid table is a perfect alternative. What with all that TV money it'll bring in.

It goes as far as individual games too. As much as I loved our win against Man City, I feel like it makes our poor performances even more frustrating now we've proved what we're capable of. By contrast, Chelsea were poor today. We could easily have beaten a second top six side in as many weeks. Instead we leave our best attacking midfielder on the bench and play a winger up front. In the middle. On his own. Try and guess how that went? Second best for the entire 90 minutes. And it's not the first time we've created f*** all all games either. We are quite possibly the most boring side in the entire league. We wake up when dropping into the bottom three is on the line, after that it's straight back to sleep. Rinse and repeat until the end of the season.

And how do we plan on solving our striker problem? How do we plan on solving the one problem that's keeping us from pushing for a top half finish and possibly even Europe? Dominic Solanke, a kid with a whopping 1 goal his whole Premier League career. DO YOU EVER LEARN YOU IDIOTS!?

Bottomline, we have got no vision. Zero. "Just stay up and hope for the best". That's the closest thing we have to the plan. And that mindset will eventually lead to our demise. Zaha, Wan-Bissaka and the rest of our good players will leave in time, leaving us with the dregs. And then we'll sink like a stone. That's what happened to Sunderland. That's what happened to Wigan. That's what happened to Aston Villa. That's what happened to every single team that was happy to just be better than three teams every season. And unless we turn this sinking ship around, that's exactly what'll happen to us.
