Dougie Freedman to Leeds?

[Marshy]

He wont go there. Hes onto a good thing at Palace. Adored and in a solid position, Palace through and through.

It would be like me Managing the Albion and going to Leeds....Never going to happen

It is embarassing that we have called this game off - Football in 2012 should not have a championship game called off due to a dusting of snow.

To be fair, it's only the mickey mouse clubs that do.

Shame it's not earlier in the season - you could have switched the game to Doncaster, the more professional and less noddy outfit of the two.

Whilst Palace are tinpot, Leeds are not much better. At the moment Freedman has owners who back what he wants to do. In some respects Leeds don't. Obviously Leeds have much bigger long term prospects but I suspect whoever takes over next at Leeds will have one hand tied behind their back.

And need to have his head up Bates arse.

 

[B.W.]

Is the right answer - Dougie been with us on and off since 1996, why would he go and work for Bates?

Yes, that's right, because Palar$e are a much bigger club than dirty Leeds with far more potential!

Fair point that, and if Bates was in charge of Palace there is absolutely nil chance Zaha or Clyne would still be there. Leeds is a poisened chalice at the moment, unrealistic expectations with no investment being made into the squad and a negative atmosphere from the fans.

 

[severnside gull]

he'd be barmy to go there

can't lose at palace because expectations are low and he is over-achieving

couldn't win at leeds where expectations are unrealistic and money is something that goes in to Bates' wallet never to see the light again

 

[Deleted member 18477]

piss off to leeds dougie. you know it makes sense you prat!

 

[Danny-Boy]

Does that mean he applied for them? As it is mentioned directly after the part about "plethora of applications"

Yes, one with a a Uruguayan's handwriting...

Poyet's only loyalty to Albion is the dosh.

Nope thats one thing that certainly ISNT the case.

Poyet has played at the very top level for club and country. He played for Spurs and Chelsea in the prem. Even an average prem league reserve can earn half a mill a year for doing eff all. This is a guy who has played over 50 times for his country and won trophies here and abroad.

I would venture that its most certainly NOT money.

There's no better place for Doogie Howser to crash and burn than at Selhurst. It's already fun watching the local hero getting slated a bit. Just wait when they hit the 10 games without a win mark. implosion.

 

[Red'n'Blue]

No chance.

Is it me or does the fact that so many of us would laugh at Freedman's departure from Palace mask a certain underhand, unwilling, grudging admiration for the work he's doing there?

He's done "OK"

 

[Red'n'Blue]

He's done "OK"

He has done better then OK.

We were 100% down under Burley ******. In the year he has been in charge he has done wonders with the budget.

Yes, but I don't like to talk about it. OK.

 

[DTES]

I don't think it's unwilling at all; I'm quite happy to say Freedman has done (is doing) a great job at Palace.

To say he's doing a bad job would suggest I think Palace should rightfully be doing a lot better than they are...

 

[TheMajor]

has to be Warnock, be foolish to look elsewhere

Yeah and he can have that no mark Freedman as his number two again

If i were you, i'd be a bit concerned that the old silver fox doesn't tap up Gussy tomorrow.
