Palace 1979 Flag Surrey 23 Jun 17 11.12pm

I have to keep pinching myself that Palace have managed to get FDB to join us. His record at Ajax was incredible and the players he brought through the squad are equally impressive. I think the spell at Inter was never destined to work.

In a way I hope the first season is mid table as we need a manager who will stay and if he does too well he will be poached just like Koemen.

I am also very excited to hear the new song on this thread. For those who have not got the time to find it amongst the 400 odd pages, it goes something like this:

Frank De Boer's from Holland
He wears an orange hat
He used a can of Ajax
To clean his orange flat

Absolute genius!!

 


Some people are like Slinkies … not really good for anything, but you can’t help smiling when you see one tumble down the stairs.

He cleans it with his left hand
He cleans it with his right
And when he came to Croydon
He said go on alright

Southampton have their manager, Parish and FDB still 'working on the contract'??? Yeh, that's right, Parish, twist the f@cking screws again, and be totally oblivious of any fact that behind FDB's smiling face that you're already p1ssing him off, and be totally oblivious of any other club being in his ear about a job, and it will ALL COME AS A HUGE SHOCK to all...and it won't be YOUR fault, as your worshipers on here will no doubt make clear. Take yer time Parish, no rush to sign this bloke...duh!

No one takes your posts seriously anymore due to you being a total (religious) nutcase.

Sloppy seconds can be a better ride for all concerned! Anyway, when you're not getting any you happily take out a fit bird who recently snogged/flirted someone else, wouldn't you?

I don't think Mrs Ferret would be very happy if I did that.

I think he's trying to say "Can you lube Mrs Ferret up", though I may be wrong.

very wise, this is really very strange, I know SP away, but what I can't understand why FdB has had a job offer, when the details have still not been agreed and the engine driver is away, hopefully
I am worrying unnecessarily but with training starting from the end of next week it would be good to have this all settled like they have already done so at Soton.

er, hello? SP being away? You do realise that this is 2017 and SP is a very successful business man? He is never 'away' from business. It's called modern communications, high speed internet, video calls, video conferencing etc. How do you know that 'details have still not been agreed'? are you with SP right now or are you in direct contact with him?

I actually hope that if the deal is done, SP delays announcing it for at least 1-2 weeks just to flush out the idiots that think they know what he's been doing. Some utterly clueless people here. CPFC 2010 is a private business and they can announce any news when they like and only if they feel it necessary.

We have been informed when a job offer has been made, and we will undoubtably be told when everything is signed.
The players I believe are on holiday at the moment so I don't think it matters much that he is not physically at selhurst park.
He would have been doing all the research on our club that is possible ever since he thought about applying for the job. Probably as soon as Sam left.
So the prediction that it could be done by early next week is reasonable.

 

boomtingz Flag Kent 24 Jun 17 6.43am

Hopefully a done deal, So glad its FdB, was a legend as a player, great Dutch team and team mates. i remember always trying to sign him on Champ Manager back in the days (yes I know its a game, but was a great player to sign).

To be honest I don't know what the hype about Pellegrino was, I don't even remember him playing for Liverpool! Wish him all the best at Southampton.

In my opinion Frank will be the better manager, that's my opinion.

COYP!

So the rumours were correct that we had to wait for sloppy seconds after Southampton had finished.

A bit of politics going on in the background methinks with SP leaking the news before Southampton made their announcement to make it look like it wasn't sloppy seconds.

Whatever the jiggery pokery that went on I'm glad with the choice that we made

I think you have hit the nail on the head to be honest. I too am glad with the choice we made, or that was made for us. I just hope we can now finish above Southampton, play decent attractive football (no hoofing), and I will be very happy. Get the deal done, and lets move on to transfer targets, and settle them in asap ready for the new season.
