The realist in me, based on what has transpired over the previous 11 seasons, thinks that Roy or no Roy, the next incumbent will last around 18 months before the same pressing issues rise to the top as they have always done. It's the same stuff every season, a few enthusiastic shouts for a Euro spot after a decent run, whittled down to worries about relegation when we are about where we are now, followed by a 12th to 15th placed finish, followed by the usual discussion about lack of finances to truly progress... Happy New Year! Edited by southnorwoodhill (02 Jan 2024 10.44am)

Wayne Rooney could be available soon ! Has all the hallmarks for me of 'great footballer not equalling great manager'. Still very early days for him but I do think it's a different kettle of fish to playing the game.
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

Looking at the touch line / manager area in recent matches I note how much Paddy McCarthy is involved. He seems to relay info to Hodgson through out a match. Appreciate he hasn’t got any managerial experience yet but he may already be in place to replace Hodgson? Perhaps all our chats / rumours will be answered by Paddy being appointed above anyone else with Lewington staying on as his assistant? Just putting it in the mix :-)

Just putting it in the mix :-) That has been discussed before on here, understandably. However, given that Paddy was given the green light to apply for the Oxford Utd job, which of course he didn't land, suggests that Palace are giving him the experience he needs in order to get a managers position elsewhere.

Just putting it in the mix :-) On the subject of the 'Technical Area', I noticed Shaun Derry, currently coach at Wolves, rather euphoric after a victory and I contrasted this with his time at the club when he cut a forlorn, motionless figure in the dugout looking as miserable as sin.He seemed totally detached from the management and coaches.

Birmingham were 6th when he took over after 11 games.The club only recorded 1 win in 15 whilst he was at the helm, a 2-1 home win against struggling Sheff Wed, and they are now 20th in the Division. Perhaps Birmingham will make advances for Steve Cooper who took up the reins when Nottm Forest were in a perilous position and took them to the PL. Edited by Willo (02 Jan 2024 11.19am)
