Sky Sports just did a whole run down of various manager talks/changes going on...NO mention of Palace or Sam, looks increasingly likely this is a non-story.

Would be shocked and saddened if it is true but also a bit suicidal for Sam. His reputation was damaged after the England debacle and he has gone a long way to restore it with us but if he leaves us in such circumstances it would surely sound alarm bells to chairmen who may consider him.

To move forward with who? And why would they be better than sam.

Shocking news but must say I was fearing we had spent a large part of our budget in January. Was kinda thinking this window wouldn't be a bonanza.

But never thought Sam would walk over it, thought he'd see the bigger picture. Surely he can see the team is already well capable of performing better than they have and only a few tweaks would mean we rocket up the table.

Frustrating that Sam's thrown his toys out the table.

If true.....

What does this mean for the Wilf contract deal?

What does this mean for any chance of a Sakho deal?

If true.

Well I think Simon's head is large; always involved in espionage. (Name that tune)

Apparently he's off to Porto anyway. I work for a betting site and have just priced the market with Ranieri, Popovic, Hodgson & Monk as the favourites.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold...

I'm guessing this is true which is so ridiculous and such a shame. Don't people have the patience to do compromises anymore!? Typical Palace to hit a wall when things start to feel good.
