Bournemouth, Boro then Stoke.
3 relegation six pointers right there.

Lose those three, and he's gone.

Pardew is doing a great job. He will be costly to release, when they inevitably sack him. Probably too late to help them this season. They are clearly desperate and down

The new annual palace relegation thread
I reckon if things don't improve by early October he will be gone . If I remember correctly in the palace relegation thread from 3 seasons ago , we sacked warnock after Boxing Day when we looked down and out , we survived . it's very early days but the natives are getting restless so this thread is looking promising but then again they always start promising for you let's see what happens after the next 5/6 games .

I don't think this will be the case having let Pardew spend so much money he would argue that he needs time.
I think your board is digging a hole for themselves. While I'm enjoying your current run I think you will survive for another season.

Stupid IDIOT
Hope Bournemouth lose today as well, set the nerves JANGLING at Dean Court. Two TINPOT teams, Palace and Bournemouth playing in League TWO grounds at BEST , both OVERSPENT in transfers instead of investing in infrastructure and the way they're both going it will be back to paying off DEBTS at 2p in the pound.
Unlike the Championship we have only played two* games.
Two games.
I really can't imagine any of us losing any sleep over yesterdays loss away at Spurs.
*and lost.
I believe the stat refers to the whole of 2016, not just the new season..............
Much how I wish this was true it wasn't the case.
Spurs had 3/4 chances but Palace had a couple.
At one stage Palace were on top, Cabaye missed a sitter.

The stats on the BBC certainly give the impression that it was one sided and I got the same impression watching the TV Highlights
Possession
Home 57%---Away 43%
Shots
Home 20---Away 10
Shots on Target
Home 5--Away 2
Corners
Home 10-- Away 4
Fouls
Home 19--Away 9
Burnley had 19% of the ball and won!
I hate the shots stat - as Its misleading a shot from 40 yards is never going to trouble anyone
It certainly wasn't a battering

I know what you mean about shots on goal, but shots on target and the corner ratio does also point to Spurs being in control.

It's nice to see a view from someone who actually went who is giving a honest opinion .
We had a lot of the ball, but didn't do a great deal with it.
Missed a couple of very good chances and if they go in it maybe different.
Others may see it differently I'm sure!
I know he's Palace and it's more than likely frowned upon, but Scott Dann should be in the next England Squad.

Over dunk
but I agree he's been solid ever since he joined us and deserves a call up ,Maybe bfs will give him a opportunity . There are rumours Townsend might get a call up as well but I heard he was poor yesterday .
Palace have won 2 league games in 2016. Pardew must be allowed to turn this form around, even if it means him taking them to league one eventually. He embodies everything that Palace is about, he is a symbol of their fans and club. Pardew is not going anywhere.

What stat?
Since when does last season's form count towards this seasons table?

Here we go again, don't you lot ever learn ?
You've been predicting our relegation since we went up .
A couple of seasons? 3rd time lucky then..... You know it won't be that long until we're right because palace are not an established premier league club.... You can cheat and fluke your way in, masquerade as a big boy for a few short years, but inevitably your old dump of a ground and teenage ultra fanboys don't belong at the top table..... You know it, we know it and history will again soon prove it..... Maybe you can polish a turd for a few years, but not indefinately.

Would you consider Brighton to be an established Championship team yet?
