Three games is too soon to be thinking of sacking the manager, but having said that there are several areas of concern that do not bode well for the future. De Boors inability to be flexible, lack of charisma and rush to judgment of his players, calling them cowards in public is a big deal and it may be an indication that he is willing to walk out if things don't improve. De Boor was a living legend as a player and expects the players to be up to the standards set by him. He now realises that half the team are championship standard at best. He just doesn't have to tools to succeed. Palace are a kick and rush counter attacking team but it is clear De Boor does not want to play that way. Parish has a clear choice bring in four or five high quality players (unlikely given the time frame and budget constraints) or sack the manager or wait until he walks.

He should have started with four at the back but can't you blame him to much for hoping and trying his system against Swansea. It didn't work and he rightly changed it.

Performance immediately improved and if Kelly's effort had gone in it'd been 1-1 with us playing the better football.

He's no had his chances trying to implement his system and its so far failed. We now need points on the board and an Sakho injection to give confidence back.

I personally don't want Frank sacked but he does need in the short term to play to our strengthens. If he doesn't I believe Parish will axe him and he'll never work in the Prem again.

If he does suck it up and change for the short to medium term I can still see him being a success.

Two great signings and one question mark signing. Maybe Reidiweld had a bad day at the office maybe he needs longer to adjust. Maybe he's not good enough, time will tell. Preseason he looked solid but yes this isn't preseason. He's been taken out the firing line which is a good thing and either an injury or the sign of good management.

In franks defence the Liverpool game wasn't bad and he's changed the formation at half time each time we've looked piss poor.

The boo boys... 0-0 and we're booing, best fans in the league? No chance. Shameful.

We're to good to go down? No way not if we have such a lack of confidence. The manager needs to build the players up in a system they're comfortable in. He has changed it mid game and hopefully that's a small hope he can in the future.

I want him to stay as holistically I think he'll be great for the club, kids, development and club progress. He needs to get the players and fans on side and get points on the board. He needs a few transfer windows with the club backing him. But in those circumstances he could be a success.

Hopefully Swansea and Huddersfield have taught him just how slow the change needs to be. I hope he's up for the challenge and can adapt.

Mental. Best chairman in my life time.

I believe I mentioned on here that a defeat against Swansea and HOL would go into 'Meltdown' with brickbats hurled at Parish and FDB.Very predictable.

Well done you. Gold star. Milk, dinner and queue monitor.

Oh and lottery numbers please.

So a home defeat by relegation fodder (the second such in a month) is not worth getting exercised about.
