Originally posted by Goldfiinger Completely agree. FdB brought through players like Toby Alderweireld, Daley Blind, and Jasper Cillessen through. He's pro a solid defence and likes his wingers to break. He really should be a good fit. The fact that we are arguing over whether Frank De Boer has the credentials to manage us shows how far we have come in 4 years.

Those things might matter more than de Boer being manager who the kid may barely ever speak to, and even his dad may not have known as a player. And how long will De Boer stick around for anyway? Yes it can be improved massively but it's a generation away from attracting the best kids who'll then become professional prem players. But we could buy them in in their later teens. Once they get the new training ground sorted cat 1 status shouldn't be an issue. I know that the club are actively persuing this and have a site identified but are talking with the authority concerned to ensure it can go ahead before anything is announced.

I don't see realism as negative. Leeds ,Blackburn and Bolton all had top 8 finishes and played in Europe and were the victims of being either poorly run and overspending or failing to replace good managers , nothing to to with fan pressure or mentality , charlton made a poor managerial appointment in dowie after fan pressure for the club to kick on , fair enough , but no one could of predicted the fall out from losing curbishley.

Fan pressure or negativity has never relegated any club and never will. My point was to be careful not to over expect or push to achieve something we aren't ready for and wishing for unrealistic expectations. To think fans mentality is holding the club back is ridiculous. Sorry to let anyone know but they don't care that much about our thoughts.

Having just read Ronald de Boer's assessment of what his brother would bring to Palace and how he wants to keep the ball on the floor, I'd like to be a fly on the wall at the first training session. Hi Frank, this is Damien. 'Schhhooo Damien sccchhooooow me what you can do.' Hooooooof.

I don't want to make a song and dance about being in the know, but apparently Parish is waiting for this to hit 400 pages before he reveals the new manager. That's why he was angry about it being leaked.

He might be better off asking Damien to trap the ball, if he wants it to travel less than 40 yards. Edited by NickinOX (23 Jun 2017 3.47pm) If you come to a fork in the road, take it.
