    Good luck to him except when they play us. He is a promising young manager.

    We now have another 2 opportunities to tell him "We're not f*****g scared" this season.

    he's probably increasing his wages 5 fold - like it or lump it palace will probably never be an established PL team like bolton could - the margin for improvement at bolton is huge and i cant see palace ever competing as they always have to sell their best players.

    on the face of it, it looks like he's following the money but with the parachute payments at bolton they may well chuck a few quid into the kitty to get them up <ok>

    Used to worry about new managers joining clubs we were just about to play.

    Now I worrry more about our own manager getting team selection and tactics right for away games.

    We're up there on Saturday - I wonder what Malky will do. Hope it's not a repeat of the game against Freedman's Palace.

    That could exercise the owner's bank balance. They were originally talking about £12m for him but after recent exploits they want £20m!!!!

    Ironic when McNuggs had him in his pocket every game last season.

    I think McNuggs would need a bigger pocket at the moment Bluey. I like Kev and think he can be real quality, but he's not been convincing so far this season.

    As far a Zaha goes, having to choose between him, Bellers, Noone and Conway for the wide left spot would't be easy for me. At the moment and assuming the others were all fit, I'd have to find a spot on the bench for him.

    He plays on the left - Bolasie plays down the right for Palace.

    Edit - or did you mean "whinge" ?............<laugh>

    He'll move to the PL in January. He'd walk into our starting line up too. He's going to be star and will spend the rest of his career at the highest level.

    Agree with that - about 10 metres high. Platform board, just like Tom Daley.
