I don't like Pardew and I don't rate Pardew. Was a good win today tho and a different style of play. If we can keep it up for the rest of the season then I'm happy. Massive difference to last season when it was Zaha and Bolasie trying to take everyone on every game. Hooefulyl Pardew has realised that's not the answer. We shall see.

I think these gloating posts are almost as bad as all the hysterical, doom and gloom posts when we're losing. Pardew rightfully deserved criticism for our woeful 2016 form up until three games ago, just as he deserves credit for turning things round since then. Why attempt to mar a fantastic win by having a pop at other fans? It's a message board, it's reactionary, just ignore it and enjoy the result today. Not really mate. We are financially a club that isn't in the top half....We have a stadium that puts us very much in the bottom half in attracting players. What on earth do some on here expect from Palace. We are not Man City or Liverpool or any of those teams. We are going to have periods where we aren't getting the results. Giving the total loons who damn the manager every week a bit of a push back is definitely deserved. If they had their way we would be changing the manager every month.

I knew we were playing well today when the blokes standing behind me struggled to find anything to moan about. I don't think many teams will be as generous as Stoke were today. A couple of losses and the Pardew haters will be back in force.
It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses. |

That being said, we've been through a diabolical run of form this year which, in my opinion, he was reasonably fortunate to survive. Many other clubs would have pulled the trigger and every other group of fans would have been asking similar questions about his future. However, we have a loyal chairman who has supported him and we are seemingly reaping the rewards. So credit to everyone involved for that.

We can begin to get off Pardews back, but to be honest he deserved criticism after the 9 months we had. No manager would be immune to criticism after that nightmare, which is hopefully behind us. Edited by Jamesrichards8 (18 Sep 2016 5.34pm)

Annoyed with the stoke goal, and for that reason he must go surely

As with any CP manager, good form and he's touted for England, and poor form he needs to go. Always has been that way and always will be. The trick is not to get carried away when we win, and not be immediately calling for the managers head when we lose. We played well today, and the defence of Pardew during the poor run in my opinion was the bad luck of injuries we've had since the turn of the year and a lack of squad depth of real quality. January will hopefully address this situation completely and it's pleasing to see the gradual changing of personnel and style to make us better and retain more possession.

I did wonder why when people were singing Alan Pardew songs the people in blocks C-E (roughly) didn't start booing. They can't be that fickle because we've won two games and their opinions have changed completely.....
