I couldn't shake off this feeling that Pellegrino was a one hit wonder who had done nothing much of note until he had a good season with an unfancied club then promptly left.

There was always something Pardewesque about his achievements so I'm glad that we went the Dutch route.

If the board back him with a couple of decent signings (especially a quality centre half) then I don't think that anyone can blame Parish if it all goes pear shaped

Excellent post totally agree.

Don't worry, some will. The past few transfer windows I've seen posts saying the squad was the deepest it has ever been. Then things went pear shaped and sure enough Parish and the board took their unfair share of abuse. It's simply the nature of the beast.

I would have been in Plymouth at the time and as I was at school/a student I couldn't afford to come up to London. That does sound like a typical Plymouth away day!

Should Frank join us I hope he revolutionizes our academy just how Ajax academy was.

This will be a good appointment for every player.

The likes of Kai Kai etc for the first time have a genuine chance of making a first team spot there own.

Not been so excited in a potential appointment in ages.

And he turned down other offers to come to us.

I wonder if he'll bring Ronald over to run it. Seems he's doing a similar role at Ajax already and until I just looked on Wiki, I hadn't appreciated that during their many years as players the two really did come as a package.

Spelling accuracy is not a sign of common-sense or intelligence , John F Kennedy was a very bad speller but a great leader!

FDB has been suggested to have been SP's 1st choice target for our replacement manager all along. I am sure we will all know the full story shortly.

I really like the fact that once again SP and Palace work extremely hard and succeed in conducting business privately and on their own terms.
Leaving the press, media and bookies to just run around like headless chickens filling space with complete verbiage (just like the Marco Silva story)

However the whole process does appear to have been a lengthy in terms of time but there may also be valid reasons for this?
Also some posters on Hol clearly expected a manager to be installed almost instantly and then after only a week without went into meltdown mode!

Good post. Of course, speaking of headless chickens and verbiage, HOL-ers (very much including me!) have completed nearly 400 pages of the stuff! SPeaking of which:
