There are plenty of questions in football and Roy Hodgson is the answer to none of them!
First match 5th October 1974 - not a good day! |

remember England getting beaten by iceland. Well , it did give me a giggle. But seriously, this isnt funny seeing the club i love being managed by a bloke with a track record worse than Goldman-Sachs. will the squad understand his south-london accent ? if he takes a wander down to Croydon, will he get nostalgic for all the craters from the blitz ? has he ever tried the jerk chicken from thornton heath ? did sven goran ericsson leave any naughty underwear in the desk at soho square ? when he last graced our stadium , did all the players wear flat caps and smoke tobacco pipes on the pitch ?

Who in football should be enjoying their retirement? Who if stating they are hoping to survive in their role is more likely to be referring to their mortality than employment status? There's probably more.
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

His last match in charge of a football team was the worst England performance for fifty years. Enough said.

Factors such as availability of players, the amount of time the team actually plays together etc all make the two distinctly different.

He'd better get us 40 points. And he'd better stick around for a few years - because right now this club smells strongly of s*** for any potential manager, and you can forget getting anyone decent in for a while.

This post has been merged from a topic called 'Can We Pleeeeease Start Learning From Our Mistakes' by Guntrisoft Ok, so it's Woy. I'm not happy about it, nor about the way FdB has been treated; however I think it's now important to start learning from our mistakes. If the rumours are true..Woy is on a 2yr deal, so what I'd like to see is the Director of Football and Chairman draw up a list of Managers to succeed Woy (whenever that may be) NOW Not, when Woy walks or is pushed; but NOW. And the list needs to be maintained EVERY 8 weeks!! We've all seen that SP's due diligence has left a lot to be desired of late, so at least having a list will give us/him a head start. This should also be happening for targets as well... Edited by Lyons550 (11 Sep 2017 12.16pm)

What happens if we lose to Southampton Saturday? Chances are we're going to lose the 3 after that will Woy only get 4 games as well?

Will Benteke be taking them too? Does he agree with his predecessors that Puncheon should start? How will he deal with Gylfi when he's playing for a team that has other players in it as well, given that he made a total arse of dealing with him when he was the only accomplished player on the opposing side? What is his health like, given that he's nearly 80?

Problem is he was managing better players than he'll have at Palace against inferior opposition to most Premier League teams! He also wouldn't give Wilf the time of day as England manager and now he needs him to keep him in a job!
