Credit to SP for giving him a chance to turn around results. Despite heavy investment in the squad result have remained poor, especially at home, and it's hard to justify to supporters keeping someone in the job who has provided very few home wins in 2 years. I trust the board to get the right replacement, spend well in the window and for us to stay up. COYP. Allardyce is a 'clean sheet first' type of manager and highly likely to keep Palace up which I guess is the name of the game. Not a name to celebrate exactly! Would much rather we went for a youngish Championship manager with a proven track record

You could be right. We will never know. We are not in the relegation zone at present. If a new man comes in and keeps us in the same position he will be lauded as a savior. True - the only reason I see this as less of a gamble is that Pardew had started to lose the crowd and the press were starting to take the mick of the run - if we go don now we have the "we tried all we could" excuse. That said, I do think they had to make a change just find the timing a bit off - why wait almost a week after the Chelsea game? I'd have expected us to wait till after Watford.

I give you credit to Parish for giving Pardew time to turn it around but this 5 year contract and alleged £5 mil pay off, erm, no. Parish knows it's a mistake and probably why he delay this inevitable decision and fought his corner after remarkable comments about major investors and more defeatist comments and moronic and in-play decisions showing a lack of respect for points yet again after doing so numerous times. The guy did it over and over again like a gambler who broadcasts wins and stays mute over losses.

Lets get Hughton in to keep us up and the weeds season to fall away.. I have just had this very conversation with the Brighton fans I work with, they didn't think it was funny. I think it's a great idea.

As i said on another thread, timing is odd and I wonder about the club strategy if after procrastinating the best they can do is Sam Alalrdyce
