Managers gone

Just noticed that after today’s managerial merry go round, only us, spurs and Ipswich have not pushed the button on our mangers of the bottom teams. That’s 5 teams out of the bottom 8 who have took the plunge.

I can see Leicester calling it a day with van Nistelrooy soon too. Also how long will Ange last?

We look positively stable compared to the rest 😂

We don't have delusions of grandeur. Also it's 6 out of 8 as follows:
  • Ten Hag
  • Lopetegui
  • Dyche
  • O'Neill
  • Cooper
  • Martin
Just us and Ipswich left in the bottom 8 with the managers with which we started the season.
 
More to do with fear of being relegated than delusions of grandeur as Parish has never been slow to pull the trigger if he thought that we might be relegated

You are right

Of the current teams in the Premier League our managers are in place for the third shortest amount of time. Only 21 months on average. Only Chelsea and Southampton below us.

Arsenal and unsurprisingly Brentford have the longest serving managers on average


Some of the past PL teams are probably worse. Watford spring to mind. Their managers seemed to be on a six month rotation for a couple of years.

(maybe FDB's tiny tenure skews the figures a little!)
 
I think our owners all believe in Glasner and appreciate he was working at a disadvantage (for reasons mentioned many times) at the start of the season.
Things would have to get really bad and really bad with the best resources we have before they'd pull the plug on him. I'd like to think our owners really want continuity. Thats hard to achieve in this division. You get a manager that turns out to be crap, you're going down unless you sack him. On the other hand, you get a really talented coach that gets a tune out of your players and before long bigger clubs want to poach them.
I think Glasner is a talented coach. I think given the best resources that Palace can provide he can push us further up the table, maybe a regular top 10 club. I think he is one of the few types of manager that will remain loyal as long as the owners keep their promises to him. He walked out on Frankfurt but that was more rumoured to be because of broken promises over transfer funds.
Personally I'd love to see Palace continue with him and slowly but surely start moving upwards while other clubs continue with a boom and bust mentality of changing manager every time theres a setback

100%

Trust our man. And remain aware that progress isn't going to always be linear.

Continuity will always be difficult for a club of our size. We don’t have the financial fire power of the bigger clubs so we are always likely to be between the bottom of the table and mid to upper mid table. Once every so often a club like ours might go on a Forest style run but I expect their team to be picked apart by bigger clubs at the end of the season.

Realistically our primary aim for every season has to be not getting relegated. Ideally we’d get in a position where we can avoid being in the relegation fight at all. However, that won’t be this year given our start.

What that means is a manager’s shelf life with us is likely to be limited. On the one hand a bad run of results that sees us flirting with relegation and Parish has to pull the trigger. On the other we don’t have the resources to push on as a club which will mean ambitious managers walk away eventually. While OG will be here to the end of this season he was probably only two bad results away from getting the sack earlier on.
 
Really like him and hope he stays for a few years. We've seen how he can get his teams playing, he just needs the players in place to do it.

It's also vital that we start bringing in players early to get used to his methods as that always takes time. The earlier the squad is finalised, the less chance that we start the season terribly.
