Glasner Out

[Forest Hillbilly]

The Board have spoken. That's a miracle in itself. I was then going to say, we might not hear from The Board again for another few years.
But I think the Palace fan's reaction to Glasner on a matchday(s) is going to steer this one.

Even by the standards of Crystal Palace football club everything that has happened in the last eight days is completely unbelievable. This article is so weird. Guessing they have been fed this but Parish is deliberately giving no quotes.

Oliver Glasner future: Crystal Palace want manager to stay until end of season despite outburst

Crystal Palace want Oliver Glasner to stay in charge until the end of the season despite his outburst after Saturdays loss at Sunderland; Palace want Austrian to leave in a dignified way in the summer after confirming he will leave when his contract expires this summer

I said very similar the other day. If anyone expects a prolonged period of positivity then they are either on some very powerful medication or are new to CPFC.

I am not on powerful medication nor am I new to CPFC.We are certainly in a 'Pickle' and positivity is in short supply.
With the demanding fixture schedule and our injuries the 'Mood Music' was that we face a challenging period, however the reality has far exceeded what many feared.

If we sell Mateta then it's over. Relegation here we come.

He’s hardly been firing the goals that could keep us out of trouble though has he? I’d say cash in now while he’s worth a decent lump.
We won’t go down, we’ve got players to come back and on 28 points we could practically draw our way to safety. Current forms not good, but you know what we’re like, we’ll pick up after this storm settles down, it’s the famous Crystal Palace rollercoaster

Personally I think the only way he can see out the season is if form starts to turn in our favour quickly. A continued run of defeats is just going to make Selhurst a toxic environment.
Can he turn things around? With the players we have coming back, yes. Will he? Hard to say at this stage

I think we have one set of tactics and it works well with Munoz and Sarr available (I haven't forgotten Guehi is leaving and so might Mateta). I think if Munoz and Sarr return and we keep Mateta we can make 12th ours again. Persisting with tactics built around those guys will relegate us though if they aren't both back in the team.

Cost Pulis £3.7 million.

Parish is too clever for one track ponies. Much too clever. I reckon he’s a Godfather fan.

 

[Forest Hillbilly]

I don't think Thomas Frank is the answer. But like a lot of people, I don't know very much about football. 🙂

Indeed, in fact, at the moment he just a 'lump'

From FA Cup to complete FCUP

It was notable at yesterday’s game that there were no Ollie chants… even before yesterday’s outburst after the match.

 

[Foxy82]

So the saga continues, for now at least.

What I like the least about Ollie's outburst, is that it would seem he has created an 'us (him and the players) and them (the board)' environment.

I just can't see how this can possibly continue for the remainder of the season without it being detrimental to the club.

 

[Cucking Funt]

For me it comes down to two things:

If Glasner was promised that there would be new signings in order to take Palace "to the next level" and this did not materialise - then he has every right to be pissed.

If Glasner was told that Palace have financial constraints and can spend very little if anything for the good of the club - then he should have shut up.

I don't know what conversations were between him and Steve Parish.

However his level of anger - something I don't think I've ever seen by a Palace manager - leads me to believe it's the former. I could be wrong but the guy is really angry.

Yes, he may have been like this at other clubs but so what? Maybe he doesn't like being lied to. We need to get to the facts of the matter as all we can do now is speculate while Palace have remained silent.

Sorry, Gordon, but I'm pretty sure it's the latter. As others have pointed out, he has form for this. And I refuse to accept that Parish would lie if it were apparent that the lie would be exposed later on. If Glasner was happy to take credit for last season and the cup win, so he must also take responsibility for this atrocious string of results.

I'm firmly with Parish on this.

Bewildered.

It only makes sense that the overwhelming reaction to Glasner's post match interviews was that he wanted out immediately with his contract paid up by being sacked. Shearer and Rooney intimated the same on MOTD.

And if that is what he wants the board will do the opposite.

I await developments.

If Glasner backtracks my guess is there is a risk he was in breach of his contract with his damaging comments.

 

[est1905]

As regards Mateta I have said many times that he is a good striker but not a great one. Look at the stats. His only hot streak of form came when the players around him were creating 20 chances plus per game. ANY good striker would score goals in that situation. He is replaceable.
The obvious point though is if Juve do offer £30m and he goes we must make sure we get another target man that can finish.

 

[Wilesy01]

If he is staying and it’s not a power move to force him out without any compensation I do wonder what the bench players from yesterday are going to think about all of this.

You’re now playing for a manager for the next several months who thinks you’re crap.

I agree. He was trying to put a wedge between the players and the club. He was with the players. The players were with him. And the club was against them.

 

[Rudi Hedman]

If Glasner gets players returning and fails then his stock is gone so he needs to be a good boy and perform and behave if he wants the stellar career he thinks he deserves.

Smart move Mr P, don't f*** with the insect.

Bad Corleone.

I'd say that was a given. Its written into most contracts these day that the manager cannot publicly criticize the owners

That would be good ,we ,board ,players OG could all have a good laugh and get on and win Conference league and storm up the table .

 

[Team of the (20)80s]

Is the club contractually obligated to the PL for the manager to be the one that does the press work?

Glasner clearly hates journalists and it certainly doesn’t benefit us for him to do them anymore.

I can see us losing at least two of the Chelsea, Forest and Brighton games. Giving him a microphone afterwards is a disaster waiting to happen.
