He would have to go. Signing seasoned pros on big wages isn't sustainable. The future lies in a blend of youth and experience, Hodgson has shown an aversion to youth.
Plus, if the club gets new owners one would expect them to have their own ideas about who will be the manager and their vision for the club.
Roy came in at the right time, but it seems like he has run out of motivation and inspiration.

Thank you very much. I do appreciate how being a Crystal Palace fan can quite easily cause you to lose your mind...

I am astonished at how many fans still want Roy to stay the football is so boring, his subs are questionable look at Everton as example 2-1 down and still does not bring on Townsend.

People say no one else out there could do better, he is doing the best he can with this squad is total nonscence.

The way people talk is our team is really bad, we have a strong 15/16 man squad that should be competing for 9th, 10th or 11th place.

Look at Sheff Utd name me any players that would walk in our first 11.

If a new manager came in he would have new ideas more likely to play more attacking football which in turn will create out strikers with more oppotunities which will result in more goals.

Im sorry but he has to go before it is too late however the answer is he wont go and we have just got to hope that these negative tactics give us 3 more wins.

Then next season we can look to move forward without him.

Care to elaborate, because i'd kick him out now ! And yes I am more than happy to elaborate why.

Just ask Fulham, and the dippers

Ask me after the next game. I saw us at Newcastle we were all over them but due to the usual failings in front of goal we contrived to lose. If there is one game we should win / can / must win its Newcastle at home. If we don’t get something from it then what are the chances of getting the points we need from the following games

I fully understand how frustrating it is watching a game that quite clearly needs an injection of something from the bench but no I don't think that there is many other options than the team Roy is picking right now. Only argument I would have is for Townsend to start in front of Ayew but then I also understand that Townsend is the only explosive substitution we have available to us right now. Tosun and Benteke haven't both been available for selection at the same time yet so we don't know what will happen there. And do you honestly think that our season will depend upon Pierrick and Meyer? Meyer is a good player, just maybe hasn't adjusted too well and Pierrick is way short of Premier League quality yet.

At the end of the day, Roy see's these players in training day in, day out, he see's the attitude from every single player and then makes an informed decision from the vast footballing knowledge and experience he has to make the best team for each game. It's ludicrous for any of us to assume we know more about football and the current Palace team then him.
There is no benefit for Roy to not pick the best team he has available to him every single Saturday, so why would he purposely pick a sub-standard team?
