Well said. I agree!

Yes it looked like he was holding back the tears. Do you think that suggests that he's on his way out? It's so hard to tell. Something is clearly not right between him and his chairman although it wold be an extremely difficult move for him.

I suppose we will just have to wait and see. The fact that this thread has grown to almost the size of the Steve Parish Q&A thread shows how much support he would get if he did come. Perhaps it would have been easier if he had been at Bournemouth longer, I don't know.

Howe reminds me a bit of Sir Steve in that he is loyal, intelligent and has a similar interview manner. I think will always have success in football management and good luck to him whatever his decision.

I haven't seen the film. I have a plated arm!

for f*** sake stay with Dougie, and stop with the cockteaser

I support Scotland, Hibs and the Palace, no glory hunters here!!!!!!

PLEASE SIR, CAN I HAVE A PIE!!

My guess is that he will decide to join Palace. It would be the next logical step in his managerial career. We're by no means in a terrible position in the league (just a point from safety) and have owners who, unlike the chairman of AFCB, will back him to the hilt.

And I feel that he definitely won't join Charlton. The guy is just too smart to go to join a club rivalling AFCB for promotion. That is one thing I feel the Bournemouth fans would not forgive him for.

If Howe shot a Bournemouth's fan's Gran for a bit of a laugh he'd still be forgiven! That said, I doubt very much he'd go to Charlton. Their owners are very much unknown, sacked a manager when they're challenging for promotion and the club itself suffers from delusions of grandeur.

On the other hand the vast majority of Palace fans recognise we are where we are because of a terrible year just gone and will give Howe plenty of time to establish himself. Hopefully even the idiotic Burley-boo boys will realise we have a potential gem at the club if he does join and won't hound him out as they did with George.

Howe is clearly is 50/50 about joining and it is so refreshing to see a manager who is clearly loyal towards his club. He'll never love us like he loves them but over time he'll gain a great affection for Palace too as we're a great club. I'm saying that objectively without a hint of bias!

My feeling is that he'll be our manager by Monday morning. Hope so, he comes across as an intelligent and decent man.

I really think this could be the start of something big for us if he joins. Never cared so much about the appointment of a new manager before.

Excited when Bruce came, scared when Francis came, wary when Warnock came, for example, but never to this degree. None of these played out how i saw it, however there's just something about Howe from his demeanour that makes my gut feel he could be a Palace legend.

None of the other names mentioned for the job fill me with any excitement, Palace connections or not.
I look forward to the "Howe Out" chants after our unlucky defeat to Boro in a "6 pointer" at the start of Feb.
The good news is that betting seems to of been suspended again on Eddie. Although, this morning Skybet had Phil Brown at 33/1 as our next manager despite him being appointed Preston boss the night before so possibly means nothing.

In the woods there grew a tree. And a fine fine tree was he.
