They both have the same meaning. "Analyse" is much more common in British English and "analyze" is the American and Canadian spelling of the same word. This is also true about these words:

analysing/analyzing

analyser/analyzer

analysed/analyzed

They all come from the noun "analysis" which is the corresponding noun in all varieties of English.

And ffs!

Sorry not me I won’t get behind Roy & these negative soul destroying tactics.

Allowing him to destroy even more strikers in the process like has been doing for 3.5 years.

I was obviously suggesting a change in management if we are smart we would have lined up a replacement the day we remove Roy like Chelsea did with Frank.

All we are doing let’s be honest is delaying the inevitable.

If we get thrashed next week to Brighton I wonder what everyone will be saying then.

Mark this one for next year

I honestly hope we've managed to bring in some replacements at the very very least and that some of our squad has been sent to Mars lol

Our manager though has got himself involved in a situation where our club appears to be happy to roll along and wait until a super massive black hole sucks him in.

Do you know what is with people like you always trying to find fault & bring people down.

So f***ing what if the execution is pants the point was to just let the owner/club know how disappointed I am & unfortunately we can’t voice our opinions at the games.

Do you know what for those of you that are satisfied with the crap you are watching & the continuous excuses you make for Roy & believe there is no alternative but to stick with this s***, good luck to you.

But I don’t have to accept if I choose not too, it’s my time, my money I am giving to club not yours & I am entitled to do & say what I want & also write badly executed emails if that’s what I want do.

I have never settled for under achievement or 2nd best & I won’t start now.

Course I will support Palace all the way does not mean I have to accept this crap or agree with it.

So if anyone else want to criticise the grammar of my messages then just f*** right off.

Well done Dazza , dont let the nit picking bullies get you down.

Can I ask you why we should or need to wait to make a change?

Surely if we are safe now is the time to let a new guy analyse the squad so he can plan ahead?

So do companies wait till there Financial Year End to make changes if there Business is struggling?

I see us as just surviving, hanging on and waiting, waiting for the right moment to do something.
We are running out of time and the longer this takes will ultimately result in Championship football.

The trouble with Dazza's email is that it doesn't propose an alternative.

He calls for "a change" but a change to what?

If we showed Roy the door without having a replacement, we'd just have a vacuum.

And that would most likely leave us worse off.

I think we'd do better to get behind Roy and the team.

It's always better to encourage than to demoralise.

COYP.

That's the way I see it too.

Calling for Hodgson to be sacked now only makes sense if Parish has somebody lined up to take over.

It is though quite important if you want to be taken seriously, before I make any post or write any letter etc I always have a quick check and if necessary copy and paste on google or such like, not difficult to improve ones writing and the more you write the better you'll become, spellchecker will even highlight your spelling mistakes as you go along, there really is no excuses in this day and age.

So are you saying Parish etc will only listen to those fans that are eloquent? Personally I believe you could get a Willo/Mapletree combo and Parish still would turn a blind eye.
I think you the posters who have stated the board are fully aware of the problems are correct but I do not see the problem of the fan base letting them know what we think.
I agree with Dazza regarding changes, if we are safe ( I am not convinced yet) why not change now and give the new manager time to bed in before next season.

Can you not spell? If so why do you not check your spelling before posting? Really quite embarrassing, and you run your own business.

As for your email, are you that important with your 3 season tickets, that Parish and the American owners will take a blind bit of notice?

There is so much more going on in the world than Palace losing a few games, when we are well above the relegation zone.

I've been a fan for 35 years and this is our longest run in the top flight, you remind me of the clowns that used to get on Curbishleys back at Charlton.

If this isn't good enough for you because you won't settle for second best, then don't support Crystal Palace, because in my 35 years, this is as good as it gets.

Yes indeed, someone in their fifties with a fair bit of experience.

 

The Dolphin Flag 14 Feb 21 4.50pm

Our form has been poor for a long time now, so for everyone saying that staying up is all that matters and that Roy is doing what is asked of him - you need to look at the bigger picture.
Other than the odd positive blip we have been consistently underperforming for a long time now and but for three poor teams at the bottom we would really looking over our shoulders right now.
We do have an ageing squad but I refuse to believe that we are getting the best out of them.
I know I am repeating myself but we have no plan, no cohesion and no spirit whatsoever.
Our players seem unable to carry out the basics required and there has to be something wrong with their management.
Time for him to retire.

The grammatical Police are out in force this weekend. Why criticise someone’s spelling, does everyone have to have perfect spelling/ grammar to post on here without getting slagged off?

 

PatrickA Flag London 14 Feb 21 4.56pm

I’ve been supporting more than 50 years and don’t necessarily accept that it is as good as it gets.
If Leicester took that view they would never have won the league and Brentford would be happy fluctuating between the old divisions 3 and 4.
It’s called aspiration and Parish himself has said Palace are at about 40% of where he believes they could be.
He needs a manager with positivity and boldness who shares that vision and Hodgson is not that man.
Ultimately I support Palace rather Hodgson and some fans seem to lose sight of that distinction.

1: I can spell but must be honest I type on my phone & don’t read it back but I’m sure get the point that is trying to be made.

2: I don’t expect to win every week but I do expect better than what we are currently watching

3: like you I have supported the club for 40yrs & I have certainly had better times than the last 18 months

4: Yes I do run my own f***ing Business - do you have a problem with this

5: You are correct there are more important things going on right now so why the f*** criticise my spelling etc

6: Why don’t you f*** right off if you don’t like my post don’t f***ing respond.

I’m sorry but certain people on this site really are f***ing annoying me & can be so f***ing horrible digging people out for pointless things.

I’m not asking you to all agree with my opinions cause that’s what they are opinions.

When we reach the 35 to 37 points required this season then yes by all means make the change, meanwhile the risk is outweighed by his experience ..for me personally.
..I wouldn't be upset if the club brought him in now though alongside our manager, you never ever see this happen these days.

My spelling isn't brilliant along with my grammar and I can take quite a long time to check everything, that's why I lack spontaneity.
