The Great Palace 2013 managerial farce. 31 days...THEY FOUND ONE!

Re: Palace fans must be excited..

Long may this saga continue.

If they don't get someone soon, the January transfer window could be another disaster

Time to appoint Avram or Sven maybe

No manager wants a relegation on their CV.....except Alex McLeish.

Its a poisoned chalice at Crystal Palace.

They've just done it all wrong, haven't they.

I mean, all of it is wrong.

There they are BOASTING (and rightly so) about the income they get from this.....but at the end of the day its FOOTBALL. And, frankly, the FOOTBALL players they have bought and the FOOTBALL they are playing is WOEFUL.

And what's more, I honestly think they'll come down a WORSE team than when they went up.

No Zaha, Jedinak will go, Murray will be 2 years older than when he fired them up, disappointed crowd after their season of misery.

I'm not bitter. I will completely acknowledge that palace beat us and got to where I wanted us to get to....

But my WORD have they FUDGED it.

Maybe but its a chalice not a tea-cup. Remember Palace are now the 11th-longest League club in the top two Divisions, most of the clubs longer up there have hardly ever ben down to the top tier. From memory the longest spell ever for the Albion in those rarified heights is - what? - 10 years or so. WE managed that from 1963 to 1973 the first time. So Palace does rate on a CV.

In 1996 whilst the fans were at war with the owners, we were 11 points adrift at the bottom of the football league, due to lose the ground at the end of the season and not sure of being accepted by the conference if we were relegated.

We didn't seem to have as much trouble getting a manager.

The difference being there was a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel , anyone going for the Palace job will just see a black hole.

Like Sheffield Wednesday and Portsmouth does

...and to have done it so honestly and without need for the occasional 'debt wipe' or two makes it all the more commendable...

A relegation is a relegation - simple as that.
