Let's all get behind Roy,he is Palace through and through.It’s not his fault that this is the second basket case of a club he is being asked to try and keep up.Ask Fulham fans how they think about him after taking them to a Europa league final which they were unlucky to lose.I am happy that he is the best short term answer to this self inflicted crisis we find ourselves in due to long term poor squad choices.COYP

If i post what i really feel on here, i'll get castigated(more than i normally do). That preening peacock in Soho, has shown his true colours & gone for the, albeit, safe, but ever so cheap option. It wouldn't bother me in the slightest if we get relegated now, we've been flirting with that for years. Our fans deserve better, but, they are unimportant, just another easy financial stream.

God help us over the next 10 games. I support the CLUB, not the manager, not the players & certainly not the Chairman. COYP

Rant over.

This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.

I don't have a problem with this. Firstly it is just until the end of the season which gives Parish more time to find the right manager to take the club forward. Secondly if you look at the attacking players in our team, Eze, Zaha and Olise, they are all good at carrying the ball. That to me says we should be a counter attacking team and that is what Roy does. It may not be the most attractive football but it suits the players we have

Can’t believe it. Ah well at least we had a good run in the prem league…all good things must come to an end

Yes it happens at a lot of clubs which are failing and where the manager is sacked. Just look at what's happening at Spurs . Conte has bad mouthed the players and the club but is still in charge. Still not sure why Vieira was sacked when so much was due to lack of recruitment. But at least he's moved quickly and Roy has ten games to improve results against teams like Palace struggling at the bottom. I don't care if he gets ten more draws. We just need the points
