I'd look in Huddersfield or Sheffield utd's manager direction. Well that's obvious with both of them doing really well at the moment. Warnock was on the radio today saying that Wilder started poorly,the board stuck with him and now they are doing well. Same as when we had Freedman,he was doing well and then went for the money. Maybe Parish should have matched the offer.? Palace 13th 2017/18.

Don't prepare and prepare to fail. Better start applying all those successful business principles rather than decision to decision lacking continuity or logic. COYP

Didn't we have only 1 left back last season (don't count Fryers) and then that misfortune was made worse by playing a right sided cb at left back? Enjoying getting up later and not having someone who knows better than me (apart from the missus of course).

"Coincidentally", things seemed to start going south from the moment the Americans came on board. Could it be that the Americans have made some of the decisions that we would consider strange? We don't know how the board decision making process works, and Mr.P. isn't likely to tell us if that is the case. Originally posted by Willo I am not privy to any discussions between Parish and the American investors but it is feasible that they are not impressed and asking "What the hell is going on ?".

If he were to talk them round on the phone he could say, ''To understand how difficult it is without a left back, try signing your name with your weak hand.'' ''To understand how difficult it is without a striker, try removing your PA.'' COYP

That was SP's biggest mistake - as you say - he should have sacked Pardew after the Cup Final but instead he totally ignored 11 points in 19 PL games and extended his contract. That is the reason we still have problems now - or one of them anyway.
