Can't believe that Pardew is turning up on these odds lists. If there at all he ought to be listed last as a joke item at 10000 - 1 against, surely? He's got more chance of becoming CEO of Porkair than getting his feet back under the table at Palace. I f***ing hope.

With managerial betting I don't think it takes many bets to skew the odds. Probably one joker of a Charlton fan put £20 on Pardew as soon as the news was announced and then a couple of people got on the bandwagon.

Remember when Dan Petrescu was odds on?

Why would we want a manager that got relegated with Hull. I think we can find better. Coleman, Raneri, Mancini, Brendan Rodgers....

Exactly conceded 11 goals in last 2. Lost to Sunderland at home. No away win in the prem

He's quit his last two jobs. Olympiacos after 1 season and now Hull.

This is not the man we need.

Part of the reason why he was relegated was because he was forced to sell his two best players in January

So what's your solution that he failed to register a single away win - 7 away defeats in 9 games. I'm sure we can do better. Laurent Blanc for me.

Then he'd have been the perfect choice; we have a proud history of managers quitting unexpectedly

Palace hoping to persuade him to move to South London. Good that Parish is moving quickly. Palace might be an attractive option in that there are a lot of good players at Palace now with the new arrivals in January, potentially a top 10 club

Definitely get Silva in for talks ASAP.

From there we can only guess what gets asked and said.

Yeah but roberto di matteo won the champions league. As good as ranieri achievement was he'd just be an impact manager.

Quit?

His contract with Hull was to the end of the season?

 


Employee of the month is a good example of how someone can be both a winner and a loser at the same time.

Michaelawt85 Flag Bexley 24 May 17 11.54am

Ranieri yes
Moyes f*** no. Will boycott games if he comes anywhere near us

Don't really want an old manager like Ranieri or we'll be in the same situation again next year. How about Sammy Lee with KP?

 

Username Flag Horsham 24 May 17 11.58am

Personally, of the managers currently being linked I'd be interested in:

Slavisa Jokanovic
Marco Silva
David Wagner
Jaap Stam
Sean Dyche

For me the best bet is Garry Monk. He was very good at Swansea, kept them safe with little fuss, and they fell away without him. He has premier league experience, is fairly proven at that level whilst still young and hungry to prove himself. Unlike many on the list he probably wouldn't see us as a step down or a short term stepping stone to something else, and seems the type to build a team over time. He's English, and a recent ex player so can relate to the players. If he can walk into Leeds and turn that madhouse into a decent side he's got something pretty special about him, and I believe he's only on a one year rolling deal so little or no compensation due.

If all the above didn't convince you then consider the moral of the Johnny Cash song 'a boy named Sue'. This is where a man hunts down his absent father in order to punish him for giving him a name which has led to a lifetime of taunting and bullying. Finally, he finds the old man in a bar and gives him a beating. His dad explains that he named him Sue because he knew that the boy would be teased, and that he'd have to learn to stand up for himself as a result, a vital thing in life. The boy understands.

If you've spent your whole life with a name which sounds like rhyming slang for spunk, you're going to have developed a certain inner steel not found in many men. That alone is a strong selling point.

 

AshfordEagle94 Flag Canterbury 24 May 17 12.06pm

Slavisa Jokanovic
Marco Silva
David Wagner
Julian Speroni
Daryl McMahon

Possibly Mancini but of sure how good he really is. I'm sure there are plenty of young managers in the lower leagues good enough but not getting a chance

Julian Nagelsmann for me. I think we need to throw the dice.

Honestly not heard of him but googled him and he looks a good fit but he's not leaving a side near the top of the Bundesliga to a relegation fight in England....even with all the money. Good shout though.

 


The ups and downs of Palace have left me older than my years

Indefatigable Flag South London 24 May 17 12.53pm

Eusebio Di Francesco from Sassuolo. He got them promoted into Serie A, kept them up, stabilized them and then got them into Europa. As a player he sounds like we was a cross between Townsend and McArthur.

Unlikely considering Parish's appointments to date.

Roy Hodgson, I'm done with Palace until he's gone. The guy is an absolute joke and what he did with England was laughable. I pray he doesn't get it.

I would rather Pards back!!!

Well your not a true fan then. What Pardew did was destroy the club in terms of togetherness. I wouldn't want either but if we took a gamble and it didn't go to plan and November, we hovering above the bottom 3. I certainly take Roy to save us.

The names being talked about are quite disturbing; Hodgson, Pearson, McLaren, Coleman etc.

Ranieri might be ok but his title winning squad was Pearson's not his and when he did make it more his own squad this season things didn't exactly go well.

I doubt we'll get Silva so why don't we try and tempt Puel away from Southampton! They're clearly not valuing him so there's no reason he should stay if a decent offer comes along.

 


Cynic or realist? It's a fine line!
