Crystal Palace

Palace have named former player Peter Taylor as their new manager.

Taylor was unveiled at a press conference this afternoon alongside chairman Simon Jordan.

The move to appoint Taylor as Palace manager has angered some Hull City fans (his former club). Taylor only last month turned down a move to Charlton Athletic claiming that he didn't want to leave Hull.

However it seems the lure of managing his former employers (as a player) seemed too good an opportunity to turn down.
