Evening all.

I'm doing a quick piece for RAWK website and if any of you have the time I'd appreciate it if you could answer the following questions. Cheers

Mods, if it's in the wrong place please move. Thanks.


What were your expectations at the start of the season?

How do you look back on Holloway's tenure? 

Holloway left with 3 points out of 24 (I think). Even then, we're you resigned do being relegated?


Tony Pulis comes in, what were your expectations? 

How has he changed things? 

Looking forward, has Pulis created a rod for his own back will fans expect more? 

Who needs to be shown the exit door this summer and why? 

What's the budget looking like for any recruitment? 

Any youth players close to making a breakthrough? 

I was at Anfield and travelling support were excellent. It arguably even better at home. What do you attribute this to?

Do you think Palace can consolidate their position in the Premier League over the next few seasons?

Liverpool now

What has impressed you about Liverpool this season?

Do you think Brendan Rodgers has what it takes to be a consistent manager at the top level?


Where do you think Liverpool need to improve? 8 more players?

Do you think Liverpool played into Chelsea's hands last week, therefore they have only themselves to blame?

Style or substance. Is 'winning' football all that matters regardless of method? (Seems to be a current hot topic)


Finally, care to predict the score?


Thanks again for taking part :hi:

Holloway's tenure for me was typically Palace, a ride on rickety big dipper come log flume. The game before he took control we pumped Ipswich to go top, from then on in
we seemed to try our best to not get promotion. I hold him in high regard for Brighton away and Watford, and again for walking away (and becoming agent Ian in pur mission to see scumwall in the third division, AGAIN).

I did think we would go down at that point as well as before the season had kicked off, like most I was none to confident with our summer signings. On the other hand I thought we were doing well, no one was whipping us.

Gritty team performances was all I really expected, however, he has got them playing extraordinarily well. I am still amazed we are safe. Cardiologist was hoping for some more work this april/may, his new ferrari is now on hold.

Holloway had his work cut out due to the well publicised scatter gun approach, after getting all those players in and some real late in the window he then had to gel them and get them all to know each other. TP has benefited from not having this period to deal with, that being said he has woeked a mini miracle, I have no idea what he has instilled, but bless his cotton socks.

I don't think he has yet set himself a benchmark, we still have to survive the famous second season syndrome, maybe after that some will start demanding champions league victories, for me though O just like looking down at The benders, the neanderthals and the clowns.

No one should be shown the exit door, the squad have produced this miracle, some have been better than others but I can't think of anyone who has played their part who should go, maybe some of the loaned out players, Kebe for instance.

Not too sure on the budgets, I hope we stick to our current way of spending, nothing too extravagant whilst improving and with sensible contracts in place. Messi would be nice though.

Being so far from home I am a little out of touch on the youth team.

the support both home and away just seems to get better and better

I hope so, as a fan who lives in another country the coverage this season has been excellent.

The all out attack system you seem to have, reminds me of the Liverpool of the 80's, even Suarez has one me over a bit (still think he's a nasty little cłnt) but he has calmed down on the diving, racially abusing, boting and spitting and his football is second to nne. Sterling, Sturridge and Henderson have also come on leaps and bounds.

BR has been producing good successful (with what he had)football for a few years now, he looks like he could be a great coach, maybe one day England will again produce a great coach.

Strength in depth, a couple of injuries to key players and you could be in trouble.

Yes, in all fairness you played your normal game, but should know that with jose he will change tactics accordingly, not the most entertaining manager but he adjusts his teams very when when he needs to.

A mixture is required if a team is to stay successful. Bar$a are getting sussed out now and Martino is struggling to implement a different approach or a plan B.

9-0 revenge

good luck winning the league, just not at selhurst though.

Mods, if it's in the wrong place please move. Thanks.


What were your expectations at the start of the season?

Relegation

How do you look back on Holloway's tenure?

Got us up,then nearly brought us down 

Holloway left with 3 points out of 24 (I think). Even then, we're you resigned do being relegated?

Yes


Tony Pulis comes in, what were your expectations?

Wasnt sure,best of the bunch out there at the time 

How has he changed things? 

Fitness,teamwork,fitness

Looking forward, has Pulis created a rod for his own back will fans expect more?

Of course many fans will want more and start to moan when it doesnt happen,after our first defeat next season there will be at least 1 TP out thread 

Who needs to be shown the exit door this summer and why? 

None as far as I know,few out on loan maybe a good idea

What's the budget looking like for any recruitment?

30 bob 

Any youth players close to making a breakthrough? 

Hope so ,weve only got 30 bob

I was at Anfield and travelling support were excellent. It arguably even better at home. What do you attribute this to?

The HF have been excellent this year but we were good before

Do you think Palace can consolidate their position in the Premier League over the next few seasons?

Hope so

Liverpool now

What has impressed you about Liverpool this season?

S.A.S have been bloody great

Do you think Brendan Rodgers has what it takes to be a consistent manager at the top level?

If he carries on like he is then yes


Where do you think Liverpool need to improve? 8 more players?

Dont really follow you,so no idea

Do you think Liverpool played into Chelsea's hands last week, therefore they have only themselves to blame?

Wasnt interested didnt see the game

Style or substance. Is 'winning' football all that matters regardless of method? (Seems to be a current hot topic)

Well we aint Barcelona...so 3 points is the name of the game,once we reach the magic 40pts mark then lets play fancy


Finally, care to predict the score?

9-0 we need to get that off our back or the 4-3 in the semi


Thanks again for taking part :hi:

3-0..... and you f*cked it up.

 


Wife beating may be socially acceptable in Sheffield, but it is a different matter in Cheltenham

Best comment ever!
