Ffs it's been one f*****g game. Most people were over the moon when he joined. Now after one game, SPs an idiot for employing him and in one fans view 'should f**k off back to holland. Yes today was poor, very poor, first 2 goals were very bad. But he changed thinks in thd second half, and if it wasn't for a wonder save from their keeper and an awful miss from dann, we could have got something out of the game. We all knew changing to a new style would take time, but it's something we have to do if we want to do if we want to do more than survive in this league....

Expecting the usual mr parish love in. Immune to criticism

Is 8m and 2 loans enough to implement the new style?

Hennessy,ward, dann, puncheon, PVA - not good enough

When de Boer was Announced, he said he'd slowly implement a new style. Has he tricked parish into getting the palace job. A manager finds a system that suits the current crop. Not having Ajax fantasy formation and try and fit a Palace team in it.

at home to a team that are relegation favourites, as are we after that performance. Lets face it the investment to date in this team is abysmal and especially as we were so bad last term. Early days for FdB yes, but if he cannot beat a team that came up via play offs then not much to be positive about. Well is SP to blame?, the answer has to be yes, it takes him ages to agree a loan deal and just maybe its time for him to move on and give the job to fresh blood, who is a quicker and better decision maker with new and fresh ideas, otherwise this can only go one way "down"!

I think to judge our situation after one game is premature. But I will say that for Steve Parish to appoint a manager that's philosophy of how to play is so foreign from the game we have traditionally played over the past few seasons, And to not back him in the market is unbelievable, But typical of his style. To say he is an astute Chairman, look at some of his appointments, Holloway, Warnock, Pardew he leaves so much to be desired. We currently have one recognised striker, we are a goalkeeper short and need someone to lead the defence, Today's game reminded me of the Pardew days where we were conceding so many goals, The board need to back Frank in the market, For him its like fighting with one arm behind his back,

I think a lot of us were expecting 4-3-3 with a bit more possession, not this crappy 3-4-3 which doesn't suit any of the players. He will lose the dressing room very quickly if he doesn't adapt. I was so excited with the de boar appointment as well, but at the moment he's looking like a poor mans pardew.
Let's stop pissing around, change back to 4-3-3 , get in sakho, and some creative players or were f***ed.
