It was Parish that hired and then fired a manager after 3 games. And I think he has been given credit for the good work that he has done. We all have our own opinions about how the club should be run, but ex-players, journalists and pundits alike - the so-called experts in other words - have all criticised the way its currently being run. It was Steve Parish himself that said we should forget the past and stop the small club mentality but we seem to be reverting to type which is a shame in our 5th consecutive year in the Premier. Hi Neillo,

Yes Palace with big Mal. Edited by alaneagle1 (28 Sep 2017 6.47pm) We agreed terms with Everton and Niasse. Why did we extend Delaney if we need to cut our cloth? Why were we taking on changes with Frank that needed more than the 2-3 mentioned when Sam was here? Dyche was available. Not a lot of it makes sense these days. It's clanger the repair since the week after the cup final.

The problem may be compounded in Jan if we are cut adrift with Tekkers not firing and Wickham just coming back. Suspect we will be looking for somebody from the Championship or some short term loanee from abroad.

Now with Palace its Parish at fault. I said that we were lucky that we had Wilf at the club which is a somewhat different meaning and represented what I was referring to as serendipity or a happy accident

I think Steve Parish should look on the bright side. At the moment he is well on his way to fulfilling his ambition of taking Palace to: "The next level." The Spammers fans talked about this when they picked up a diamond in the rough in the shape of Payet. That evaporated very quickly. You need the personnel to do this. Also telling everybody that this is what you are going to do ie. make a change and employ somebody with a clear way of playing probably isn't the best option. Need to keep your cards close to your chest. Way too obvious otherwise.

We agreed terms with Everton and Niasse. Broke down over Agents fees I believe. Why did we extend Delaney if we need to cut our cloth? Presume agreed with Sam.Strange one that and Jonny Williams. Why were we taking on changes with Frank that needed more than the 2-3 mentioned when Sam was here? Dyche was available. As Willo said not privy to that .I thought you wanted the guy that went to Watford.? We are Crystal Palace and not Man Utd, sacking Managers after a Cup Final.

It was within our control. That's the irritation. I can take being relegated because it's us, or just happens or was going to happen at some point, but that's not the case. It's a sequence of wtf moves and decisions.

Well the changes in Managers has not helped.
