After another blinding start to the season,and what looks like our one gem being out for a month,It is becoming a repeat of last season even quicker,I so want CP to succed,but the frustration factor for me is another week nearly gone by,and everyone again sat on there hands, no one signed ,louds of rubbish rumours,and most other clubs getting on with business,what is the problem at Palace,if the managment cant tell what is wanted ,how the hell can fans be expected to support,
Frank will get his chance,but for god sake look and sound like you want to be there,buy the players we need urgently and bite the bullit,or you will be gone Frank,and so will our chances of staying up,
Yes I know its only one Prem game,but pre season was decidedly average,and the warning signs were there,come on Managment wake up,
You might be good at communicating Mr Chairman but spending is a priority,if you want to survive!!!

I have to admit he alawys looks very solemn.Comes across as somewhat dour and never seen him smile !

Yes pre-season was average, nothing to get encouraged about but I put this down to 'Growing pains' due to a change of style.

Not at all.
As I have said on HOL, I am all for giving FDB time and not panicking after a single game.

No - I will be very happy if FDB succeeds at the club.

Many clubs got their key targets early while Steve took some 6 weeks to get Frank in place with the most unfortunate decision taken by Sam to an out of the blue retirement.
Frank is determined to introduce his 'dutch' style at the start of a new season in a league he knows nothing about and many pundits including Andy Townsend,are predicting a difficult season.
We have now lost Wilf for some 4 weeks and perhaps Parish needs to dig deep before the window closes and start backing his manager with some quality( not foreign loan signings) in the form of Sakho and others or I can see problems ahead, particularly if get hammered by a quality side on Saturday having been thrashed by relegation favourites Hudersfied last week.

I expect that just as Sam did after Sunderland last season, Frank will have spoken with the players. Sadly they have a tendency not to move into space when they do not have the ball. We are used to seeing different Palace teams at Selhurst Park. The fear has been taken away by the Huddersfield result and the prediction of Liverpool having a big win. On the field at Anfield it will be eleven against eleven. Hopefully, Frank will instill desire for next Saturday, which will still be there for Tuesday. COYP
