Email Sent To Parish & Phil Alexander

Evening,

As no one had the decency to respond to my below email, I would like to reiterate how disappointed & dissolution i am at being a Crystal Palace fan.

We seem to be going nowhere, the football is so negative & boring & we are becoming stagnant.

We today just got beat by a team below us in the league & had only scored 5 away goals all season till today.

It pains me to say it but I am embarrassed to call myself a Palace fan even Brighton have an identity & vision of where they want to go & how they want to play.

We can’t achieve any of this all the time we have Roy at the helm.

Yes Roy is a lovely man but unfortunately that does not bring results.

We need a change now.

I want you to know that myself, Son & Father will not be renewing our season tickets next season unless we have a change of direction.

I want to make it clear I don’t expect to win every week, I don’t expect you spend millions.

All I want is to see a Palace team that has character, grit, passion & at least try to win & play attacking football creating chances.

Big Sam & Pulis achieved this in fact Pulis probably had the weakest team out of all our other Managers yet achieved the best return.

Please for sake of Palace & your fan base please say thank you to Roy but now is time for a change & new direction.

Kind Regards

Well said. Unfortunately you win it get a reply, perhaps we should all do the same. What email address did you use? I am happy to send one, am “celebrating “ 60 years in April of seeing my first game but have never felt so deflated

Have to be careful about giving email addresses out:

I will let you guess the format but it ends in cpfc.co.uk

Obviously you realise with lazy writing, poor grammar and spelling such an email wouldn’t be taken seriously? That goes for both posts. However, I suspect alcohol has taken over so all may be forgiven if so. If not, perhaps check five-six times before sending...

A very fair email. I think a lot of us feel the same. Like you, I've been following the club for 60 years. This afternoon, following the Leeds shambles, I chose not to watch the game. I never thought I'd reach the point where the Palace were on TV and I wouldnt watch. It's that bad.

Not had a drink and I don’t need a lecture from you thanks.

I appreciate someone taking the trouble to reiterate feeling across the club's fan base. However, the only measure in our hands likely to provoke a reaction from the Board will be our hesitancy en masse to renew our season tickets. No doubt the club will come calling for money as soon as Boris lifts Lockdown in March.

Dazza - personally I applaud you, well done Mate you're e-mail represents my thoughts and a lot of others on here - well done for sending and posting.

This is exactly the problem with society today, so what if the spelling or grammar is not right you get the point that I am trying to make.

At the end of the day I just want my Palace back.

If you have nothing constructive to say about the post itself then don’t bother to respond.

The only reason I have not used foul language here or said more is cause I don’t want to get banned.

So do one if you don’t like my posts.

I don’t normally post but read everybody’s comments and opinions with interest. I was expecting a reaction from the team today after the poor performance against Leeds. This was another embarrassing performance and totally unacceptable. The football is some of the worst I have seen at the club since following Palace since the early 80’s. The players look like they are playing as total strangers and have forgotten how to pass. I totally agree with Dazza’s sentiments. I don’t know how many other clubs would put up with the constant poor performances without making some changes. Enough is enough!

Very well put , I will also not spend any more of my hard earned money on Palace until i see a change . It is soul crushing to see our beloved team , who i have supported through thick and thin , fall to such a low ebb . Even when i had no money i walked from West Croydon to SP to watch matches in the pissing rain . We look forward to watching Palace play all week as its the only bright spot of the week in these harrowing times only for us to lose to the likes of Burnley! FFS its Burnley not fcuking Barcelona . Im sorry lovely man but he has to go it is shameful.

 

steven_t92 Flag Orpington 13 Feb 21 7.50pm

Perfectly said, I agree with everything you've stated and havent renewed my season ticket for the same reason. It feels like so long ago since we played like we did with Pulis, Pardew and big Sam. All had our team playing beyond their best. Roy hasn't even had us playing at 50% since he joined, its always just been able not losing and thats now vanished in the last year.

Sadly the email will be ignored, I hope it won't but 99% chance parish's pa won't even read it.

A pointless stat but Roy inherited a team that had got 3pts from a possible 27. Allardyce lost four of his last five games with us and needed already relegated Sunderland winning at Hull to stop it going to the last game.

Pardew got 27 pts from his last 37 games.

And the award for most condescending post the year goes to our very own Bar Eagle!

Well done you!

Wow. What a s*** response.

 

joe_cpfc Flag Basingstoke 13 Feb 21 8.40pm

Only bit I disagree with is "Roy is a lovely man". I think he comes across as an awkward stubborn git full of nonsense excuses most of the time. I love the latest press conference pre Burnley when he was asked "what's been going wrong in the defensive department this season" he then gets a bit s***ty and explains that if it wasn't for the 0-7, 2 x 4-0's and a few 3's it wouldn't be so bad would it? said it all for me. I was in disbelief.

I paid the 200 quid to reserve my season ticket for next season as I knew I couldn't get there this season. If Hodgson is still in charge next season I'm going to try to get that back. I can't stomach any more of the shyte that's being served up.

It's a sad state of affairs when Burnley were the bookies favourites to win today before a ball was kicked.

Didn't even bother watching today. Had enough.
