Steve Parish is apparently out of the country so there must be a plan/ contingency plan in place.

I have been as impatient as anyone, but then I have had to reflect that: he is very smart h and very experienced now (probably TOO experienced for his own comfort in getting a new manager in); He loves Palace and wants probably more than any of us for the club to prosper; He likes to do things privately outside of the glare of publicity; his main priority is surely to get the right man and right team in ready for preseason training and there is still time to do that. I should get a life and enjoy the summer weather!

Live on scraps? Don't we pay something like the 10th highest wage bill? Don't we consistently try to add quality to the squad? Mandanda I'm confused when I read people complaining that our team isn't moving forward. When's the last time a club poached a player we didn't want to sell. Some comments sound as if we're being run badly and on a shoe string budget. Which clearly isn't the case. Personally think fans should be less negative and look at the greatness the club is doing moving us forward. I don't get why people are hating on the Americans, what have they done wrong? Did they dig deep when we need it in Jan? Yes It's like people are complaining about things that haven't even happened yet. Assuming the worse when there record has actually been a positive for the club. Imagine if the rumours are true and we beat West Ham in singing Inheancho.... Apparently an attacking midfielder from turkey is a done deal. What else is being worked on in the back round... Who knows.. But we do know Parish works with a huge amount of privacy surrounding him which is for the good of the club to get things done without interference from other clubs and agents. Why why why we dig him or the Americans out I have no clue. But it's not very supportive to read IMO. You have selected part of a discussion, out of context, and gone into a pointless rant. The discussion related to reports that the US investors are in disagreement with Parish over the choice of manager because they want Dyche and he doesn't. The reason for their choice being that he works on a shoestring budget and they want to rein in spending. There are separate reports that Dyche is unsure about the Palace job due to a proposed lack of transfer budget. I was careful to couch my comments in terms of if either or both of these reports were true. I have also pointed out that Parish had indicated that transfers were to be Sakho plus one, if Sam had stayed, which equated to around £40m; a decent sum in my view. If the US investors are now wishing to spend less than that, then there is legitimate cause for concern. Perhaps next time, you should check the whole story before you start hammering away at your keyboard. Edited by bexleydave (22 Jun 2017 6.32am)

As for rumours about the Americans... blah blah blah Just rumours with no substance. My understanding is we have no interest in Dyche and haven't spoken to him so any article mentioning us thinking about him goes straight to the click bait junk bin. Where does your understanding that we have no interest in Dyche come from if it's not from the very same media outlets that you claim are just click bait?

I'd be happy with de Boer, pellergino or Claude puel. All good candidates. Just want a decision and start planning for next season.

Personally think we would be mad not to interview the ex saints manager. 8th place finish in the premier league not to be sniffed at. Granted his football, not pleasing on the eye. His experience in the league would edge him ahead the likes of de Boer and pellergino for me. Here's puel record Monaco - 91 games. - 48% win rate To achieve 100 games as a manager at one club is the stability we need. If we can't appoint one of the 3 preferred candidates. I'd definitely offer the job to puel. He was sacked at saints because of the style of football rather than the results, he achieved. Thing with puel Southampton only scored 17 goals at home which tells me his a very very defensive coach. Agree though worth an interview if we can't get our main targets.

Wasn't pulis and big Sam defensive coaches. Pellergino side scored the same amount of goals in the 38 matches as puel did. Southampton 2016/2017 38 games played- 41 total goals scored... Alaves 2016/2017 38 games played- 41 total goals scored.

Edited by bexleydave (22 Jun 2017 6.32am) Well said, whatever had happened in the past, we can't change and we now need to move forward and that does include investing in the team especially in defence where we look fragile at times, especially when key players are injured and our cover is that comes in is championship quality at best. lets hope this all coming to a head and that we will have some good news in the next couple of days, it very frustrating for us all but its the future that matters now as we do need to be getting on with our preparation.

But as I say worth an interview.8th place in the prem is not to shabby at all. I think De Boer would play more exciting expansive football.

There could be nothing whatsoever in these stories of a boardroom split over finances and we may never have had any interest in signing Dyche either side of the Atlantic. But as the stories are out there, and in light of the protracted process, it's perfectly legitimate to comment on them. You're quite right Den, that there are clear areas where we need to strengthen, which has nothing whatsoever to do with what we've spent in the past. If we want to stay in the loads-of-money league then continuous improvement is needed. Edited by bexleydave (22 Jun 2017 8.50am)
