Next Manager?

Strangely, Skybet has the current Portugal manager as favourite to succeed Olly.
Various others listed with diminishing interest right up to Mary Poppins at 100 to 1.

Of the, in my humble opinion, interesting ones nearer the top of the market, McKenna, Rodgers and Sir Gareth might fit the bill.

Steve Parish has shown a penchant for Palace nostalgia over the years, so I would expect to see Southgate named in the summer.

Wouldn't be a bad punt for me. (Currently 7 to 1 Skybet and 10-1 Bet Victor).

Mary Poppins CV is interesting. She would sort out the defence and wouldn't take any s***. We've seen similar January appointments in the past, let's be honest. Plus that umbrella might come in handy.

Last night in a text message someone mentioned the name 'Matthias Jaissle', erstwhile manager of Red Bull Salzburg, currently Head Coach of Al-Ahli in S.Arabia.

He speaks every language with the exception of english, young enough to bring his footie boots and frequently changes formation. the anagram chucked up a "Jessie with Asthma" well nearly.
 
i dont want to see Alan Pardew managing the car park at Selhurst. Never mind the squad.

i hate to say it. But we are doomed. A Carlo Ancelotti would not touch us. Only the question mark dodgy fellas on the make. Best case scenario.....good management for 6 months and then he leaves us. Most likely....oh a bit of bad luck there. Veira/De Boer style calamity.

its been a nice decade in the Prem. Relegation beckons. We may barely survive this season. But thereafter ? Autumn 2027 , us to play West Brom in the Championship.

I believe there is a good chance that we will plummet through that relegation 'Trapdoor'.

Our main striker has only scored 1 goal from 'Open Play' in his last 16 games, we have only won 4 out of 16 games at home in all competitions, we have only won 2 out of 11 games at home in the PL, our Captain has departed, we have not won for 10 games and it is highly likely this will extend to 11 on Sunday.None of our summer acquisitions have made significant impacts with the most expensive of all Pino flattering to deceive.The same sentiments could be applied to some of our signings last season.Our manager has decided to leave at the end of the season and of course expressed his feelings in no uncertain terms after the Sunderland game.
We are in deep trouble.

Linked with Iraola today by BBC, out of contract in the summer. People will say we're a sideways step but if we stay in Europe for next year are we? Come the end of this season when Senesi leaves they'll have lost their entire back 4 from last season and they rarely reinvest any profits....at least we sell/buy to break even mostly
 
But why would Iraola leave Bournemouth for us? We have absolutely nothing to offer him that they don't. If he goes anywhere it will be to a bigger club.

The same statement you have been making for several seasons. I will get worried when you say we won’t go down.
