We're always potentially a top 10 club, but we keep on f*cking ourselves over in true Palace style, which means we're only ever a 'just above relegation' club.


Ain't that the truth!

Jeez, if the sum total of our ambition turned out to be a bloke who hasn't managed a club for five years we might as well ask to be relegated to the Championship now and save ourselves nine months of misery.

Don't think he has managed in the league for over 5 years.

It was Megson who took Michail Antonio on 'Loan' to Sheff Wed from Reading.
I have a feeling that Mandaric was Chairman at Sheff Wed when Megson was appointed manager.

I say this every time we need a manager and I know it will never happen, but god would I love Martin O'Neill to manage us.....even if it meant he brought Roy Keane with him.

Was only joking about Megson.

When will you throw your hat in the ring Willo ?

You must be joking. The Toon chairman has promised to dig deep into his piggy bank for transfers so why would he want to come here

What come and live in London over Newcastle and manage a club with players that Newcastle could only dream of having presently? God knows.

The Newcastle players live in some lovely areas up there and play before crowds in excess of 50,000.

Omce you have finished both great works, can you please summarise in not more than 30 words? (And no long fancy ones). Or just "actually bit boring" if it is. Appreciated. Thanks.

 


If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities.

The "grass is greener here" argument doesn't hold water for me. Eddie Howe thought the grass was greener at, ironically, Burnley. It wasn't and he left for "personal reasons.". For him, Bournemouth was and still is the place where he fits best. Same with Dyche and Burnley. I think he would be a fish out of water at Palace and wouldn't last to the January window.

Managing/coaching any sports club, never mind a football club, is not easy and never has been. There are tangible and intangible skills that have to be evaluated. I thought Pardew had both traits and was the right manager for Palace but he proved me wrong. Given the revolving door that football league management is, I'm not surprised at Palace's managerial turnover under SP. With the exception of Steve Coppell, some Palace managers have lasted roughly 2-3 seasons at the most. Ron Noades burned through quite a few before hiring Coppell and a few more before re-hiring him in the 1990s. Unfortunately, it seems to be the nature of the beast.

him or rafa would be my choice!
