The PL money means that there is less need to sell good players than ever before.
It is easier to compete with foreign clubs for players.

Parish and his pals bought the club for next to nothing.

We got very lucky having Zaha. Parish sold him.
We got unbelievably lucky to get him back.

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?

The simple answer, done a better job than the previous 4 Chairmen.

It's an intuitive thing.


Your above post from another thread sums up your mind set on Parish. You just don’t like him and it doesn’t matter what he does you just won’t credit him for any success the club has. The fact the clubs in its best position ever is just down to luck and Parish has had no influence on this but anything that doesn’t go so well is all his fault, your a pretty hard man to please aren’t you.

The grammatically sloppy answer perhaps.

Without Zaha and the fortune of finding three top managers available, we would have gone down like all the other times we achieved top tier status.

I'll see Parish in a more favourable light when he delivers the new stand and more so when he delivers the club into the hands of owners with greater ambition and the money to back it.

Who sold the Whitehorse end to Sainsburys, therefore making expansion very difficult. Pocketing all the money, before selling to Noades.
Next did a fairly decent job, but sold all our best players to fund the building of his golf courses. Then sold the club and not the ground, therefore holding the club back, making it was impossible to grow.
Next lost all his money, went into administration.
Next thought he knew best, but lost all his money and went into administration.

Be careful who you wish for as an owner.

Fecking hell.....We are honoured.

Who would have thought that the messiah would end up supporting our humble club.

Bit of a weird way to reveal yourself after two thousand odd years but who's complaining.

Mind those Juniper bushes!

That is 'you're', and a full stop helps too.

Meanwhile, try not thinking for other people. I suspect that you might need all that thinking power for yourself.

When I want an English lesson I’ll let you know. Next time you get of your high horse though, take a look back at the nonsense you write before you dish out anymore insults.

But chairman Steve Parish fears selling Zaha could wreck his plans of finding new partners who share his long-term vision.

Cash-strapped Arsenal could not meet the asking price of £80m-plus unless they sold Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang or another star player.

And even then a deal would be hard to do because Zaha’s future is tied up with the four-way battle to buy into the South London club - despite him pleading to be allowed to leave.

OK so Thaksin Shinawatra might be one but who might the other 3 be?

I’ve got no interest in learning to post a reply correctly or for that matter spelling or grammar (I’ve had no sleep since a Friday due to travel). Despite this though I don’t think even you can be stupid enough to miss my point that you criticise Parish’s every mistake without acknowledging his achievements. Even more sad you respond to fellow Palace fans abusively if they don’t agree with your personal vendetta against Parish. I can only assume this is a distraction technique you’ve developed when your constant anti Parish (or whatever negativity your spouting) isn’t holding water anymore.

and, without SP & his mates we'd be without the cheques we receive from the PL each season we remain there.
You don't have to like SP but the simple fact remains it's down to him we're still watching Palace & having this debate, sure as hell didn't see anyone else rushing to save us.

Even by your own standards this is pretty unpleasant. Not everyone has your level of perfection. Nor your level of smugness. And I say that as a fellow pedant.

Listen when you've been hanging around for two thousand years waiting for the fella you'll take any Messiah you can get your hands on.

Of course he's the Messiah....I should know, I've followed a few.
