To say we should have backed him when you hear all the rumors of unrest and see how out of depth he had players playing.. Really?

Seriously crucify Parish for giving him the job in the first place if you want, but to say he should then If you employ someone to SLOWLY bring about a change in style and they immediately go against this agreement compound the mistake by backing him and keeping him in the post, when he's clearly gone rogue. Na, he had to go..

I find it amusing that a few very carefully orchestrated leaks that may or may not have any basis in truth are now being taken as proof of guilt.

Comments like "If you employ someone to SLOWLY bring about a change in style and they immediately go against this agreement" and "he's clearly gone rogue" are straight out of the clutching straws manual.

Just as in the Pulis leaving fiasco no-one really knows the truth of what went on behind closed doors but peoples' beliefs seem to be more in line with what they want to believe rather than anything based in actual facts.

Crystal Palace won the high court case is that not enough to believe?

I agree with clubs leaking info. I spoke to someone recently who confirmed another club of equal size doing this. Confirmed more by the silence since Benteke's injury.

The 3-4-3 declaration was anything but 'gradual.' That is fact. He said both, he contradicted himself and, after all, I find it hard to believe Parish agreed to something requiring 7 new players, which is what it would've taken.

They're both to blame, and the players really for not getting on with it, although they're right in that it would inevitably fail. Still not for them to decide, although they do.

Not really as the High Court case only dealt with points of law and whilst they ultimately agreed that Pulis had broken the terms of his contract and should forfeit his bonus we never really found out why a manager that performed near miracles and earned himself a massive bonus in the process was so desperate to get away.

The conspiracy theorists amongst us (and there are many) have said that Parish wouldn't sanction the purchase of all the old boys that he wanted to sign and/or West Ham had promised him a job but this is all just guesswork even if many HOL posters present it as fact

Would someone so money driven would walk from a job probably paying over £20k per week net. If he wasn't hired till November, which is the usual first firing and hiring you're looking at 12 or 15 weeks, possibly more.

The Zaha issue seems plausible. What's also quite likely is he saw this project beneath him. Rebuild a club's infrastructure when also the ground etc was decades behind the times.

Fair enough I can see that one.

Here! here! We know nothing about how, if at all, De Boer contributed to his own downfall as a result of unacceptable behaviours.

 


If only it were White, rather than Yellow!

Mistake made, and corrected.

Seriously crucify Parish for giving him the job in the first place if you want, but to say he should then compound the mistake by backing him and keeping him in the post, when he's clearly gone rogue. Na, he had to go..

And i very much did want him to be a success, but he absolutely had to go.

Based on what? Gossip? Because apart from that there was no reason not to give it a reasonable amount of time. Players themselves had no problem with FdB and a few even said they were enjoying working with him.

He was happy to walk away from maybe 20k a week, well knowing that he had blagged his 2mill bonus and was nailed on to another job in the Prem with another big sign on bonus and undoubtedly more per week after performing miracles at Palace.

He was never going to stay longer than that season, always his game plan to cash in and bugged off, regardless of what SPs supposed actions.
