Quite simple really Although done a lot of good Steve parish .Who demanded Dramatic change 6 weeks before season started ? not the fans . Stability that's all the fans wanted .what made him think we had the players to implement that change ? The buck stop at him on this one .Start the process now for a new manager and players for the Championship so we have half a chance of coming straight back up .Sorry Steve this mistake was costly.

Ask yourself, why would a potential manager deliberately lie at an interview about the style of play that he would adopt as it doesn't make sense That's correct ME we do not know what is the truth or rumour , is the perceived wisdom that SP told DF to change 100% correct. Dougie might well have changed if and when told, but Frank may be arrogant enough to ignore any such advice and thought he knew better. I have interviewed many people who have lied to try and get a job , in their own strange way they seem to think it is clever to try to bluff their way through and try and fool the person interviewing and the firm they wish to work for, they get upset and ask for reasons why when found out. Many people do , usually arrogant ones who think they can get away with it.

Originally posted by MngCPFC I agree with Wilbraham413, I still look back to Dougie leaving while we were in 1st place in the Championship and can see only two managerial appointments that made sense in the years since. Both of those, Pulis and BfS made to avoid relegation due to poor managerial appointments and lack of signing. We are a team that sits in the bottom third of the Premiership but SP obviously has to promote higher now we have US backers that work on results and returns. Perhaps a drop and rebuild is what we need, football is football and the games are not as public down one league but I don't watch the other leagues, Premier included, when we are down and it is still exciting. Cheaper tickets as well given the membership rubbish!!. Nice first post. Parish has not raised prices for 5 years for STS. Palace 13th 2017/18.

The answer is simple. We screwed up big time during the transfer window. Going into a new season with one striker was beyond imagination. Now we are after a 35 year old free agent striker who has failed to score for a few years. We are reaping what we've sown and how anyone can say that we will get out of this mess, is beyond me. If there were a ray of light at the end of the tunnel I could be a little less negative. But to sum up our football at this time the words, dreadful, diabolical, disaster........ come to mind!!! It is embarrassing to say you are a Palace supporter, even those who know little about football know that Palace are setting all time records! Will we get into the Guinness Book of them?!!! I really do feel that we (the faithful supporters) have been let down big time. We have somehow managed to stay up over the last few seasons with a couple of defensive managers, so why didn't we batten down the hatches for this season with a few quality players to save us going through the same agonies again? I am lost for words! I have supported the Glaziers/Eagles for 60 years and feel somewhat bitter about our present predicament.
