Really feel for him. I mean I don't especially rate him, but that's terrible. I hope we stuff them.

Yeah I didn't feel it was a very good appointment in the first place, but someone at Palace clearly did and to only give him 4 games is crazy. Wonder how big a payout he got from his 3 year contract. Can't help but feel the media have been hounding him from the start, not sure why, but there was 4 articles about Palace and their winless start on the BBC this morning. None about Bournemouth or West Ham, both of whoms managers jobs should've been under more threat than FDB.
 
Football has gone mad,

They even looked like they had turned a corner yesterday, but couldn't get it in.

Obviously the new man will come in and they will play amazingly in their next game against, oh yeah that's right , us. Typical.
 
<doh>

And theres me thinking if we do poorly this season i hope we give Pellegrino time to bring in players next summer before we sack him.We need to give a manager enough time to decide what the squad needs and a couple of windows to bring them in.

The state of football right now, eugh.
 
What an utter joke.

I mean aside from the fact it's typical timing wise and their almost nailed on to turn us over this weekend now.

They've brought him in to change the entire style and given him what, a month?

Bonkers.

What a ****ing stupid decision. You give him 4 games and then sack him???? They actually looked good yesterday and really should have got something from the game.
 
De Boer is ****. Yeah it is a quick sacking, but then again he is ****.
 
Hodgson does well with teams like Palace. Fulham and WBA were both successes on his CV, remains to be seen how badly he was affected by England though as McClaren was a good club manager before taking on England.
 
I don't for a moment think it means we lose the game Saturday. We may do, particularly if we play like we did last weekend, but we'll have the country behind us, and possibly facing 11 confused players (and not just in the away dressing room mirror either).
