..so it was Pardew who made snodgrass do his stuff and then he also made the silly ref miss the whole thing, Hull's second was very well taken and a great goal ...we were very silly only once for their third, that's an improvement in my book. You having a laff? Not Pardew's fault because he's not on the pitch? Not the defence's fault for letting Snodgrass into the box? Defenders getting walked through? Going 1-2 up and not being able to shut-up-shop to get 3 points against Hull with their form? Going 3-2 down with only a goal from Campbell to eek out a draw? Hull had that game won and would be feeling unlucky at the end. Oh, now we need points do we? But don't think about that Pardew in preseason before we meet WBA (THAT'S where at least one lot of 3 points should have been won). There's a nincompoop in the club and he's not on the pitch.

And while being an entertaining mess(Daily Express ),still managed to lose 6 games in a row.Now of course,we have merely lost 7 out of 8,with a view that many share,of possibly securing ONE point in the next4 games.

Surely the fair play rules still exist? I'm far from an expert on the rules, but I believe there was a 2013 based 3-year spending cap, which greatly reduced their flexibility to spend. Parish was talking about it over the summer --that in January they had no room to buy anyone, thus Ade on a free was the best they could get. He mentioned that with the 3 year cap ticking on Palace now had lots of room to spend. There is a really good article on it, but the gist is: "Specifically, clubs whose player service costs are more than £52 million will only be allowed to increase their wages by £4 million per season for the three years from 2013/14. However this restriction only applies to the income from TV money, so any additional money from higher gate receipts, new sponsorship deals or profits from player sales can still be spent on wages." Because Palace gets most of its revenue from TV money, it was up against the cap, while bigger teams with other revenue streams had plenty of room to spend. If you want more detail, the article is here:

Sam would be a disaster. Least atm players want to play with us and see us, or at least saw us as a team going somewhere, Dann and Tompkins quoted as much. Big sam would see us become West Brom part 2 and we'd all relish the prem each year no doubt, but the ambitions of playing good football and attracting named players like Cabaye in years to come will be a little more difficult I think. I think Mancini will prove a better bet, if and when the time comes. Or Ive always thought Ex Bradford manager, now Bolton manager Phil Parkinson was destined for the prem.. Birmingham have announced they have sacked Gary Rowett. One can only speculate as to whether they have lined-up Allardyce.

They would be sensible to take him asap - he will get them up this or next season I expect as long as funds and pies are available!
