Magical moment that one with the lads in the dressing room after the Brighton semi.

"We love you Palace, we f@cking hate Man U, We love you Palace, we hate the brighton too, We love you Palace we play in red 'n' blue, so f@ck you, and you ...

I'm sorry BG but that's simply not true. He is talking to players and shouting instructions through most of the game. While Millen may not be stood next to him throughout a match he does speak to him regularly. Admittedly I wouldn't like to say whether it's more or less than other managers but they do talk.

I simply don't think he can take us to the next level, unless he thinks the championship is the next level!! I like Pardew but am sick of the excuses now, and the way he often "bigs" up the opposition instead of addressing our frailties, I am now very close to asking for an application form to join the "Pardew out" club, after all the statistics don't lie at the end of the day.

I think the board should give SP until after the 3rd January game. And tell him that too.

And draw up a clear list of LB/DM/ACM for signing in January come what may.

It may sound a cliche - but we ARE transitioning, from a c 30% possession side to a 50%+ one. And not too far away from playing some decent football, the like of which we haven't seen at Palace for a long time.

Forget last season's disastrous run - what's done is done, and the players are different anyway.

I think that we we fall short is with tempo and fitness (the latter in particular). And with the lack of DM protection for the defence. Should perhaps have got Flamini properly fit by now.

AP is not a fool. And there is a dearth of options i.m.o. Let's pull together, all of us, and show some cojones.

Jackson.. Wan Bissaka.... Sansom.. Nicholas.. Cannon.. Guehi.... Zaha... Thomas.. Byrne... Holton.. Rogers.. that should do it..

If by 'a chat' you mean a kick-up-the-arse, then yes.

The saving grace in all this is that Parish is first and foremost a businessman and won't put the owners investments at risk. My guess is that Pardew is treading a very thin line and those comments to the media have no doubt already resulted in him having his fortune told in no uncertain terms.

Hopefully AP, having seen the light, we will witness a Freedman-style conversion against Man City.

Can you hear the Brighton sing? I can't hear a ******* thing!

Is that Top 10 Dave.?
