Glasner Out

[Vaibow]

I think the lawyers are working overtime at the moment and he'll be gone in the morning by "mutual consent".

and then selhurst will be rocking again!!

This is my thinking, his comments have literally given the lawyers ammo to pick them apart and say he has to step aside and it can handled publcially however they decide, to save face if needed.

He cannot say what he has said - isn't good enough, can't adapt the players he was happy with in jan, he'd boo himself too as a fan... he's literally making it so easy for Parish.

However - he needs to do the right thing and step aside.

I really wonder who will take him on in the summer

I agree he's made himself appear very high maintenance but would it be a big surprise if he just walked away from management completely? He's worth several million and might want an easier life.

 

[pssguy]

Not sure if it would be a first for us, but Big Ange at Tottenham comes to mind. UEFA Europa League Final winners in late May last year, and left/fired in early June without overseeing another competitive fixture!

and closer to home, van Gaal: 5 minutes after United had beaten us in the FA Cup Final

I am surprised that there hasn't been more comment about OG's words today. I had thought it was a sensible plan to retain him, as his job prospects would be greatly impacted by Palace being relegated, or even surviving but remaining as poor as we have been for 3 months now.

But today's speech was really disingenuous. "I'm just not good enough to replace the players we sold. I'm just not good enough to integrate the new players in a way to play the same way like we did, and I'm not good enough that we can cope with the schedule we had." In other words it is the board's fault for selling our players (as a club like ours has to), the new players are crap, and the board didn't provide a big enough squad. The idea that he is "blaming himself" is nonsense - this is just a back-handed way of telling us it is all someone else's fault.

For me this is the moment that has changed my mind - he should go now, before the Wolves game.

My thoughts as well - after watching this presser I’ve finally moved to the Glasner out camp. The thing that tipped it for me was when he was asked “do you still want to be here” and he said “let’s see you never know”.
If you don’t want to be here then quit. Period. Full stop.

He is like a sulky child with his comments. Why would he want to tarnish his reputation and potentially relegate palace all so he can get out of this job when he could have left on a high and moved onto bigger and better things. Makes no sense to me.

If it true he said this condescending bullshit to the fan base:

"I would say the most important thing is stay humble. I think it's the same for the fans.

"Stay humble. Never forget where you're coming from. I think a few who are so critical in this situation are not humble anymore.

"Forget where you are coming from and usually in life you are punished for this." .......

then Parish and Co have to sack him after the Wolves game, if they don't, they are poor leaders, poor stewards of the club they will be found out as cowards for not taking action.

 

[cryrst]

OG got the fans inside with the fa cup and after his initial out burst about players being sold and a small squad. The board this and that blah blah. But with our crap results, style of play and players downing tools to some degree, he still thinks the fans are on his side. No OG, we may follow our club like sheep but it doesn’t mean we are blind and can’t see a bad apple in the basket.
Needs to go asap.

This is projection, a classic narcissist's ploy, straight out of the manual.

 

[har]

It's the same as before he left Eintracht Frankfurt.
Future Developments

- Complaining at every post-match press conference.
- Favoring players whose contracts are expiring or who want to transfer.
- Not giving young players a chance.
- Making a 39-year-old player run until he urinates blood.
- Criticizing young players and reserve players in press conferences.
- Declining player motivation.
- Players claiming they are being bullied by fans and the media.
- Yelling at reporters.
- Criticizing the management for not strengthening the team.
- 99% of fans want him to resign.
- Deteriorating relationships with everyone except the main players.
- Years after his retirement, fans reminisce about him, saying, "He won trophies and was a good manager who expressed his feelings honestly."😢

Definitely. Glasner is a textbook narcissist and this is quite normal for the type of things they say; words get twisted and the true meaning of what they say needs to be deciphered, but ultimately it is never their fault and they never accept responsibility. It's hard wired into their brain, they can't change.
The mask has well and truly fallen off, and its effect on this group of players is blatantly apparent. It would also explain his falling out with others clubs. Parish should have got rid when Glasner made his announcement, some of us said so at the time, others weren't sure, but there can be absolutely no doubt now.

 

[Rogers 11]

His latest rant on the BBC is a disgrace. His comment "I'm not good enough, but I was good enough to win the FA Cup and the Charity Shield," is a direct go at the fans. Get rid of him after the Wolves game, Europe or not.

My first wife was like that , don't think he is that bad , think more of self preservation than narcissist , trust me I've had it first hand ,
but he could be heading towards a breakdown showing all the signs , needs to go before he does breakdown for him and his family sake

Maybe he's just found a new love for Take That?

In all seriousness though, he needs to piss off, Parish should've sacked him off after the Sunderland outburst, as many fans knew.

Tomorrow is going to be very toxic indeed, maybe it's what Parish wants, to show the narcissist he ain't loved no more?

 

[PatrickA]

In some ways it's reminiscent of Hodgson calling the fans 'spoilt' and suggesting they should know where they come from, although he subsequently apologised for his comments.
I can't think of many managers who take responsibility, even if they claim to, as in the same breath they are blaming all and sundry.

The current situation also reminds me of the decline under Pardew when Parish failed to act.
Apparently the American owners at the time wanted Pardew gone earlier, but Parish gave him stay of execution.
The Americans are generally less tolerant of poor performance.
Penny for their thoughts at present.

Possibly Uriah Heep too.

 

[lagoseagle]

His most recent comments that fans should be humble, and that he has done us a favour in sticking around as long as he has, as he “had plenty of offers” makes my blood boil. I was in favour of SP sacking this git after his last show of dissent. Doubly more so now. Thanks for the trophies, but the sooner he moves on, the sooner we can steady the ship, still have a crack at the Conf League and make the best of the situation. He has become a complete liability, he seems to have lost the dressing room, performances and results are awful. He has to go - NOW

 

[Lanzo-Ad]

This is the team you will get tomorrow, the atmosphere will be hostile, the players will hate it, Glasner will explode, not literally, i cant believe Parish can let this happen
Henderson
Canvot Richards Riad
Muñoz Wharton Kamada Mitchell
Sarr Larsen Pino

This IMO should be the team, Managed by Paddy, Positive atmosphere, fans backing Paddy and the Players, and 3 points
Henderson
Muñoz Richards Riad Mitchell
Pino Hughes Wharton Devenny
Sarr Larsen

Farcical now isn’t it. The manager doesn’t want to be here the vast majority of the fans don’t want him and judging by recent performances the players badly need some direction which they won’t get as this drags on and on.

To me there are only two explanations - SP trying to save money in sacking him or is this now so personal between them that he’d rather drag us through the mire to watch OG continue to suffer.

I agree that Hughes should be a starter we require a "warrior" type player to set the tone.

 

[Painter]

This whole Glasner saga is just so Palace. After following them for the best part of 60 years, whenever we get any success and the future looks brighter, it all comes crashing down.
The team of the 80's crashed due to Venables
The team of 89/90 crashed due to Noades racist comments
The Bruce saga after getting us top of the Championship
The Dowie saga after getting us promoted to the Premier.
Dodgy chairmen Goldberg and Jordan, who nearly ruined the club.

After seeing it all before, you know something or one will bring it crashing back down again.

 

[cryrst]

Some may compare us to the clowns with Curbishly who went and they dropped like a stone. The fans thought they were better than they were. If this was our scenario and we were holding our own and playing decent footy with wins but mid table I would be OG in. He had us slagging off the board and SP. We all fell for it I’m afraid to say.
It isn’t like the clowns. The love for this man after the
FA cup win was unconditional.
Now we are back singing south londons red blue army. SP needs to act and not use the club to punish him which in effect affects us, the fans who have unconditional love for our club. COYP .
