Bit childish to question if the bloke is a fan. He's entitled to his opinion. I actually agree with him. Parish did save the club, So did the 3 other investors and Lloyds who agreed to do a deal on the freehold of Selhurst Park (you might need reminding CPFC2010 had no interest in saving the club unless they could get their hands on Selhurst). Since then the club have done very well. You could say we have been lucky (to have been promoted so quick) and even luckier (to have stayed up and thrived). But Parish has made mistakes. Big ones. And he repeats those mistakes which is unforgivable in the unforgiving world of football/business. Are we not allowed to critise him because he was a quarter of an investment group that managed to purchase something very very cheap that had the potential to be worth ten times what they paid and is now worth probably 100 times what they paid. Maybe there should be a time limit. Will it be alright to criticise him in say 10 years? or 100 maybe? or never? You need to grow up mate. We are all flawed, all of us. You, me AND Steve Parish.

Your giving Parish no credit for the position we’re in which is our best ever, that’s just down to luck ? Yeah he’s made some mistakes, who doesn’t (I’m sure he’d probably do some things differently with the Benefit of hindsight). He’s the decision maker though and he doesn’t have the luxury of analysing from afar and offering opinions of how things could be done differently (like us fans). If your going to analyse his every mistake though you should also give credit where credits due. In my opinion if his stint as chairman was over today the history books would show him as our best ever chairman. I’m not saying people shouldn’t criticise him, nobody’s above criticism. I think it’s unfair though he’s criticised on every decision that doesn’t turn out to be for the best without balancing this with everything he gets right and my opinion he’s got far more right than wrong. like for instance getting the ground in the deal for the club which as Goldberg found out would’ve been a massive mistake not have insisted on this.

PatrickA London 28 Jun 19 9.48pm
The future direction of the club seems more uncertain than for a number of years. There are rumours about the Americans wanting out (although nothing official) , it’s all gone quiet on the new stand which Steve P hoped would commence being built this summer. AWB has been sold, rumours are that Zaha could follow him out and Hodgson, Luka and Benteke all have one year left on their contracts. This all adds up to the feeling of uncertainty and Parish is normally a clear thinker who has a vision for the club which I hope hasn’t been sidetracked. Let’s hope for some clarity in the coming weeks as all the speculation is not helpful for the club.

The positive side of this is that Roy Hodgson is a good and good judge of players. It’s a dangerous time for the club if Zaha follows AWB out of the door, but as long as Hodgson and Parish keep their nerve as to which players come in to replace them, we should be OK....hopefully they can also bring in a few young players of PL quality to increase the depth of talent...A big ask and easy to get it wrong

Edited by Rachid Rachid Rachid (30 Jun 2019 12.09am) Yes, we were signing Adam Barrett etc when they bought the club. Signing Zaha has been THE biggest master stroke. Not only has he played a big part in a handful of seasons but he’s a highly valued asset after all that as well. We’d be replacing Pulis’s players after 2-3 seasons but then I guess not purchasing Benteke or Sakho, if we survived to sign them. Parish’s mistakes are why we’re hamstrung right now. We’re very lucky we have AWB to sell, otherwise relegation is a bigger possibility, and/or selling Wilf more likely and sooner.

We got lucky that Watford had an off day in the Play Off Final. Holloway and Parish spends money on a lot of crap Got lucky to find Pulis available. Parish fell out with him. Neil Warnock. Didn't work. Pardew. Did OK for a while, One cup final, which we lost to a poor Man U...Again. Should have been sacked earlier. Then we got lucky to find Big Sam available. Not ambitious enough for him. Brought in a complete weirdo that wanted to play expansive football despite not having the players to do it. Hopless thinking. Roy. Steady and won't quit even when the board sells his best players. What has Parish actually done? Well to quote Napoleon Bonaparte!
