At first I thought "Oh that's humble" Then I read the rest of it, "I knew he could do it, which is why I suggested him" followed by a barbed comment about the board "It is not my squad - in Scott Dann and Joe Ledley, he has got two brilliant players. I was told the budget was gone -but part of the job of manager is persuading the club to spend on strengthening the squad and he did that"

Poor Ian. Had his hands tied. He only went and assembled the largest team in Europe.

This is why I don't get all the arse licking and thanks to Holloway. He is a smarmy bitter bumpkin who is an overrated manager and a nobody.

We spent 350K on Joe Ledley and 2.5 on Dann. He spent 2 Million on Kebe and 2 on Hunt. CLUELESS CLOWN.

I would think this is very common as the departing manager was told there isn't any money available only perhaps if players are sold but the arriving manager is able to buy players without selling any.
The pyramid to beat all pyramids!! Find out what team is in which division, eg which division is Coppull United in? |

Poor bloke - had the hardest job in football. Inherited a team which couldn't have been performing better... If we continued to play well, it was down to DF, if we stopped playing well it would have been IH's fault. But to everyone else it looks like he has an easy job - given a team sat at the top of the league. We went up in the playoffs and then the PL started and we were without two of our best players from the previous season (Murray and Zaha). He had very little time to strengthen the squad with less funds than any team going up. He also had no infrastructure to facilitate strengthening the squad - having to watch players with SP on youtube... We started the PL and, to be fair, had terrible luck. Penalties, red cards etc. We didn't exactly get embarrassed every game - only the Fulham game was a battering and to be fair they scored 3 goals of the season. He was honest, left us when he realised he couldn't do more, didn't try to screw us for money, didn't have a bad word to say about the club and he did take us across the line to the premiership, which was the job he came in to do.

From a man who not long ago claimed he would be a "Palace fan for life," this below statement from that article is strange don't you think. "Now I have left Palace, it is nothing to do with me any more." Ian you would be better off keeping your mouth shut, but we all know you find that impossible.
