How utterly depressing.

I have now sufficient funds to last me the rest of my life. Provided I don't buy anything.

It may already have done given Roy's pre-match interview today in which he stated that last week wasn't good enough on the attacking front and the team would be looking to do better tomorrow. Has SP had a word, I wonder, because Roy's statement today was a far cry from his post-match interview last week?

If tomorrow and the game after and the game after are repeats of the Brighton game then the Palace coaching team are so way off the mark it does not take football geniuses to understand we need a whole new management set up. A hard working team and the Macarther way is still important but we can normally get the ball back quite easily we need to make the other team work harder to get it back. Come on Palace repeat the way we played at United tomorrow.

I remember the centre back set up with the 19yr old untried Fosu-Mensah and Riedewald either side of Scott Dann against Huddersfield in the curtain raiser and a declining Puncheon in front of them.

Never thought I'd be the kind of fan that wanted a manager sacked after one game but Parish gave him three more games than he deserved IMO.

Messed things up at Inter before us and Atlanta after.

There were some very bold predictions at the end of last season from fans on here about how good Tyrick Mitchell is and complaints that Roy can only play with three defensive midfield players.

I don't like the last couple of performances but central midfield options who don't score goals, full backs who can't attack and a rotation of 30+ yr old centre backs doesn't help to get you playing in the opposition half.

Having watched Roy’s press conference from yesterday it would seem he’s either deluded or distorting events.
He was asked specifically if he was concerned about only one shot against Brighton.
He responded sarcastically that’s only a concern for ‘you guys (the media) or betting companies ‘ and was more interested in ‘creating havoc in the opposing penalty areas.’
He was giving the impression we were doing this even if only one shot was made.
The reality is that we’re around the bottom in the table of goals scored, chances created and efforts on goal and this has been the case for a long time.
Hardly ‘creating havoc in opposing penalty areas’ Roy.
We can pose more of a threat, as we did against Man Utd, and we looked better for it .
Just take the handbrake of when the opportunity is there in a game!
