The Changing Man said:
I remember that Palace team, and a few names have stuck - Johnnie Jackson, Mel Blythe, John Craven (no not that one), and Martin Hinshelwood are players that I recall from them being one of the London teams that featured regularly on the Big Match. They also had players like Bobby Tambling, Charlie Cooke, Alan Whittle and Don Rogers who made their names elsewhere.

You brought a few names back to life there TCM. The job Head did was a bit like Harry did at Portsmouth. Bringing in some old heads who could still perform at the highest level at the tail end of their careers.

have you watched the documentary?

he impressed me in that...seems to care about the football side more than I thought he did and he’s backed his man in the transfer window.

cant complain

I think that Levy likes football, but I'm not 100% convinced that it actually matters for a chairman.
Anyone with any sense knows that a club doing well on the pitch is a massive boost off it.
These idiots that come in and cut every possible corner soon find out why the corners are there in the first place.

Alan Sugar didn't and still doesn't understand football and his time at the club demonstrated it well.
He got the Sky deal though, so he didn't really care. A bit more understanding and knowing his limits would've gone a long way.
Knowing what you don't know is incredibly important.

To be fair, Sugar also doesn't understand that saying Covid isn't that bad because he doesn't know anyone who has it makes him look a total prick a few weeks later when he says his brother died from it

"Idiots that come in and cut every possible corner soon find out why the corners are there in the first place." Love it PNP well said.

AND

"Knowing what you don't know is incredibly important. " One of the secrets of human life. We have a very philosophical PNP here today.

Bilic and Dicks gone. So everyone who didn't do Arteta each way for first sacking loses out. If West Brom choose Fat Sam, It's Pulis for the goons.

Arsenal have missed out. Allardyce is the new West Brom manager, shockingly.

Great so now I have to hate West Brom..

Can't stand that fat ****er tbh
. Loved it when he got the Engerland job for 23mins before getting the sack, funny as <laugh>
 
Banter aside, Arsenal are really poor aren’t they

Arteta can’t be far off the sack because they’re genuinely in a relegation battle if they don’t improve quickly
