Playing like this I dont think so but I have had my reservations if he could play this style.
Hes proved he can.
Well done roy.

well in Roy im the thread starter please keep proving me wrong ibdont expect 4 1 every week but as long as the boys show intent im happy to accept im wrong for starting this thread.

Beware of what you wish for.
Todays performance tactics goals and result excellent

Chris Wilder be available soon. You,v gotta love the fans coming on here demanding Roy to leave and hailing the likes of Wilder a genius. Wilder has had 1 injury to an important player and he is f***ed,

He wouldn’t lace Roy’s boots,

If Roy would give the players more free rein like he did today then fine.
Trouble is it will be Brighton all over again soon.
Our tactics were good today so long may it continue.

It must be difficult driving with tunnel vision.

Today was a great example of what Palace fans have been screaming out for for the best part of 2 seasons. It was a game full of ambition and drive, something that has been sadly missing In all the frustrating crap we were seeing week in week out.

If Roy sets them up to go out and play like that for the rest of the season then I will back him to the hilt win or lose. If we go out with the limp wristed approach we put in against Brighton I will be back in the Roy out camp because there is a world of difference between the two.

And thank god they don’t drive at the South Pole

basically...you saying your view changes by the week...which means i cant take you seriously.

we wernt that attacking today we countered like usual and caught leeds out of shape a few times whilst doing that, leeds are decent but
naive as a PL outfit and we exploited that...we didnt play attacking football we simply took our chances.

we will always play differently against different teams, and invariably get different results because of that.

we are the most solid, and best we have been since promotion...thats over a peiod of time, not a few games.

all that matters is points on the board and nobody with even a basic knowledge of football can argue a case against roys tenure without looking stupid.

think back to watching that spurs documentary, all jose cared about was the points goal about finishing where he wanted to finish...on a smaller scale, thats all we need to care about.

if we spent £300m on transfers and we only got 45 points i would be thinking very differently.

‘Football isn’t instant coffee. You have to work at it. You must grow the bean, grind it.’ Ian Holloway

He’s been shut out of the team for 3 seasons and you’re given Roy the credit for his recent performances?

I go back to the days of Bert Head and have seen all the managers come and go since, including the likes of Ernie Whalley.
Roy is competent and a steady manager; he does what it says on the tin and gets enough results to keep employers satisfied.
He is not a Coppell or a Venables who genuinely transformed the fortunes of the club through in the first instance brilliant use of bargain buys and in the latter case innovative coaching of a promising group of youth players.
Roy is doing no better or worse than expected.
