Disappointing yes and not progress given my understanding is that the club interviewed him a few years ago before he went to Burnley and deemed he wasn't what palace were looking for. Surely going back on that decision now wouldn't look good it'd be a bit like meeting up with your ex girlfriend and trying to decide whether you should make another go of it! Personally I would rather the club take a gamble on someone like Ryan giggs than go for Dyche and I don't even like giggs and never thought I'd find myself suggesting we should go for him but he would be preferable to dyche! Off your rocker mate

Firstly this will probably be in the main thread next time you look and secondly Puel may have taken Southampton to 8th place but their 46 points was only six points more than Dyche's Burnley yet Southampton had a vastly greater player budget to work with. It would have been interesting to see where Southampton and Burnley would have ended up if each had the opposing manager in charge last year Firstly, it ain't yet Secondly, you miss my point about the stress Puel was under. Dyche had an easy time in terms of support from the board, Puel on the other hand knew that Southampton had very publibly stated quite early that his position would be reviewed at the end of the season. The stress this would put on anyone is immense, never mind being a Prem manager. So to answer you point, yes it would be interesting to see how they would have done if their roles were reversed, would Dyche have buckled under the pressure? Imponderables I know, but a straight comparison in the circumstances doesn't stand scrutiny.
Cynic or realist? It's a fine line! |

That information is out of date as the directors may not have paid themselves anything in the last financial year but SP now pays himself £650,000 pa Has he had a pay rise, you stated £600,000 yesterday!

This is seriously worrying, with most clubs reporting back for pre-season preparation at the end of the month and we are still without a manager, no action in the transfer market, which despite what some think we desperately need as we have some serious big holes in the current first eleven and even more so in the squad. SP states he is looking for a long term manager, we have had 7 in the last seven years and this one when appointed will be number eight, so does such a manager exist?, surely results and league position will decide how long he stays, whatever we do need this sorted and quick now! Whilst I agree about strengthening the squad. Our first 11 is still here Hennessy,ward,dann,Tomkins,PVA,puncheon,Luka,Cabaye, Townsend ,Zaha and Benteke. Without the exception of Sakho. That's still a strong 11. Granted some areas need upgrading like gk,rb,attacking mid in the first 11.

De Boer please although it seems as the most unlikely. We seem to waiting on Southampton to make a decision. Hopefully they make the right one for them and choose de Boer. It will be truly bizarre if we both end up with the man suited better to the other team.

Its the Sakho position that is of real concern, when he is not playing we look vulnerable at the back and I agree the other position you are saying need to be upgraded but what is the real concern is without a manager in place we cannot progress and prepare for the challenge ahead and we are therefore currently losing opportunities especially as most of our competition seem to be very active and much more well prepared than we are at this time!

It doesn't state which director got paid, it could be the one of the Americans wants a return on their investment. Calm down. It was posted in response to a post relating to an out-of-date article stating that none of the Palace directors took a salary, which is no longer the case. Of course it's Parish, return on investment wouldn't be shown as a directors salary. No one has commented on whether he's entitled to it or not, and I personally have no problem with it, but let's not pretend that he's doing it for love. He puts in the time and gets paid for it; that is all.

I'm a desperate as anyone to a get a new manager. Most of the seasons, we are underprepared going into season, like last season with Benteke transfer saga dragging on. Since being in the premier league, we've left most of our transfer business until the last 2 weeks. Hennessy,ward, dann, Delaney, soaure , jedinak, puncheon, Townsend, chungy, Zaha and wickham. So in an ideal world we love to have our 25 man squad in place when we face Huddersfield. This never happens. Can understand the frustration with manager but even if we didn't sign anybody for the Huddersfield game. We in a stronger position this season . As long we have a manager in situ. I'm sure we will strengthen the squad with 3 or 4 but will probably be the last 2 weeks of August.
