Glasner Out

[Paul Salvage]

Has gone yet? Lose on Thursday and Sunday then hopefully he's gone.

If the only way to get rid of OG is for us to lose, then I hope he stays until the end of the season.

It isn't though. He could resign or be sacked. And already should have been. Look at our results for the last fourteen games and see what you think.

Has the chosen one done any sort of pre-match statement yet.

 

[Forest Hillbilly]

Glasner won't be got rid until an appropriate replacement is ready to take over. My own thoughts are that a short-term replacement to steady the ship is not the best option.
Perhaps the Board have someone in mind for the long-term, but they aren't available , yet.
Now we are getting more of the squad available, I would like to think Glasner can turn results.

Who cares? I stopped listening a while ago.

I don't think a manager who's leaving can turn results. Best thing that can be done is a team meeting and a reminder of all the relegation pay cuts. From Parish - not from Glasner. Glasner has undermined any authority he had.

Good points. But I would think the players are aware of the financial impact on their wages that relegation would have. Not only that, but if they want a transfer, better put on a good performance to put yourself in prime place in the shop window.
Players that get relegated, aren't usually in demand. Andy Johnson being not the only exception.

I agree with you - I said earlier in the thread, the impact sacking Glasner now has on our next appointment is enormous. I'm not fully convinced the upside of sacking him is worth the risk of f***ing up our next hire.

The bookies still see our relegation as about as likely as Brentford finishing in the top four.

The managerial situation at Palace exists because Steve Parish has determined that it's the best way forward for now.

It's a bold and unusual call in an industry where sackings are a part of everyday life.

My guess is that he thinks that Glasners European experience is now his most useful asset as that's the only way that we can win a trophy this season. And that we have just about enough about us to avoid relegation.

If we look at the other clubs around us, Forest are a basket case. Would you feel comfortable if Palace had burned through three Head Coaches if Glasner had been sacked in October ? Or Spurs bringing in someone with no Premier League experience ??

Sometimes doing nothing is the best option. And we have to hope Parish has called it right in this instance.

The media spinning yet again :

T Frank - he’s failed so many times he must come good at some point

S Dyche - the croaky voice gets ppl attention, well sometimes

F Lampard - if the midlands can understand he why can’t south Londoners

A Mountbatten - with a room full of teddy bears, likes pizza, only 1 interview was a car , bus,ship , plane crash & deny everything
Plus he needs an outlet 🤣

Re: It's a bold and unusual call in an industry where sackings are a part of everyday life.
I don't think so, likely it's a money-saving ploy so he doesn't have to pay up the remaining months on Glasner's contract. Very short-sighted in my opinion. A temporary replacement now would be better than the uncertainty of struggling on with someone who has lost interest in Palace.

I disagree - obviously none of us know for sure, but we can't be talking more than a few million to pay Glasner off at this point, with only around 4 months left on his contract - I can't imagine we would allow such a relatively small figure dictate our decision making at all.

It's chump change to a Premier League club.

I don't agree.

If Parish had sacked Glasner in October then Palace would have potentially had to pay up his contract which runs until June this year. If paid in full, and I think there would be grounds to negotiate that, it would cost £3m. Now that may be ' dead money ' but in this business it's not big money.

Or, just a theory, Parish has not got overall control because of a possible takeover in the closed season, no facts, just a theory, but Parish is not his normal self IMO, and putting him on gardening leave, if he wanted to do so, his wages to the end of contract is about 900k, not a vast amount to save us from a possible relegation, one thing is for sure, results couldn't get any worse.

Perhaps the club fear a Curbishley-esque comparison if they sack him, even if the circumstances are totally different.

Well that is speculation of the purest kind !

In terms of Parish not being his '' normal self '', I don't know him personally. But I did meet him last Wednesday after the Burnley game and it struck me then just how frustrated he was with the result and the performance - in other words he felt exactly how I did.

I wonder if Parish could wind the clock back to last October, would he have considered it for the best for Glasner to remain having effectively handed in his notice ? Results suggest that he may now regret that decision.

I agree that paying Glasners contract up now would not be financially prohibitive, however replacing him and hiring someone new on either a permanent or interim basis comes with no guarantee that results will improve - Exhibit A being Forest.
