You're clearly NOT a Palace fan (or you've been asleep for the last 3 months) otherwise you would know:
1. two of those players have already left the club.
2. Hodgson used both Guehi and Andersen last season as his first choice CBs so no place for Tomkins
3. Ayew was on the bench until Zaha got injured and only got to play in other games because of Zaha's injury. Also if you had seen Ayew play in those games you would have had to acknowledge that he generally did well in them.

Ridiculous comment, Arteta leaned under Pep, do you think he would have been as good without it.

New Era? Are we being taken to the cleaners?

My pennies worth. It's a logical re-appointment.

My thoughts on the reasoning behind it is that I think Parish and Co haven't got the funds to buy a massive amount of players (as shown by the tiny profit we have made from lack of sales in any area)and so..any new manager coming in would have to work and get the best out of the young squad we have..... Roy has shown to be reliable at getting the best out of the youngsters and develop them. I expect we won't get rid of any of them this summer and that Parish is hoping RH can get them to develop even more and progress so as to sell them at the end of next season for a larger profit. We haven't even seen 3 members of the team we bought in Plange, Eboowei and Ahameda. Here's to hoping 1 of them comes good also.

Roy. Iwould like him to get us in the top 10 with some good exciting playing and i think Parish & Co having the foresight to develop youngsters for profit is the only way I can see Palace eventually crawling up the league. Textor seems gunho with his ideas and the 2 Americans aren't in it for the love of Palace.

I do like a good flounce lol

He earned a new deal and showed he could get us playing some entertaining football with the players we have. I was very sceptical but pleasantly surprised. With some talented young players it is good to have some stability ahead of the return to training.

I actually wonder if the delay was Roy wanting reassurances he wouldn't be asked to work on a shoestring budget again. He made a few not unsubtle digs about not getting the kind of players we have now during his previous tenure.

As always I expect a run of bad results to be met with talk of Kane taking corners and any good run to be declared a Royvolution and potential Champions League qualification before finishing mid-table.

Welcome back Roy and Ray
