You could say that. Your on every thread lol. It's an exciting appointment but it's not official. There's many deals and managers that have been close to signing and didn't. I sure this won't happen but this is Crystal Palace after all.

A month ago De Boer vaguely registered. In taking his time Parish has secured an excellent prospect. He has been very canny. We are in the Premiership still mainly through the fates and luck. Our squad deserves a great manager to get the best out of them. Top managers aren't going to hop into bed with a relatively undistinguished club without considering other options and the upheaval and logistics. May sound mercenary but that is the way it is.
The scatter gun approach we are normally associated with has been fun and depresssing in equal measure but Parish has been shrewd and played an absolute blinder. We are a grown up Premiership club and Parish realises we need to start acting like one and has done so. He has shown tenacity and maturity, yes a lot learnt from previous mistakes. Bed wetting about timings when someone of the quality of Parish is negotiating such a high grade candidate does him a disservice

Agree 100%
Hes gonna be a bit of a new kid on the block as far as some of the prem managers/teams are concerned ....so its gonna be interesting.

If he wants us to be like Ajax then we could clean up.

when do we return to pre season. I'd expect an announcement by Tuesday.

Andy Johnson Magic, He wears a Magic Hat
When he Sees the match ball, he says he having that
He scores one with left foot, he scores one with his right
And When his playing Brighton, He scores all f***ING Night!

God that was terrible. Pair of scrubbers.

The deal's not done yet but hopefully we can Cillit Bang on the start of business on Monday

Let's see how he gets on in the transfer windex first

some of you are clearly enamelled with the new manager. But he hasn't yet presided over a victory in the prem - let's hope he breaks his toilet duck sooner rather than later (sorry, it's late, I'm bored and can't get to sleep)

I'll come up with some more in a Jiffy.
Cif it's ok with you?

You fed me, you bred me, I'll remember your name.

Toilet duck me it's taking along time for fdb to sign on the 'DOT'ted line but it's gonna feel good to sing fdb's red and bloo army
