Sage is sage

Plus a cup win. And we didnt deserve to lose on Saturday, even with ten men for over 60 mins.

But yeh, lets get Dyche in.
But equally we didn’t deserve to beat Fulham. Unfortunately the league table doesn’t include ‘deserved’ ‘bad luck’ ‘almost scored’ ‘on another day’ or anything else. Results are results.

If the performances improve and the defence stops resembling a sieve then he will be given more time. If we keep conceding three goals a game in the league and keep losing then his position will be untenable by about the Brighton game
 
If this is true its out of order. You may not agree with Sage's decisions but you keep that to yourself and trust him. He is being paid to get results. Its up to him how best those results come about. Personally I think Canvot has been crap so far this season and as such I agree with Sage's decision to drop him but the point is it makes no difference what I, other fans, the players or even Parish think at this stage. We have to accept Sage's methods for now. Its only destablising him by constantly nit picking his decisions.
He must think to himself FFS, if any of you think you can do better knock yourself out. I could do with a laugh!
 
Dropping Canvot from the matchday said was a dreadful decision.
He is going to become a great player and that is no way to treat him.
There are other mutterings of discontent and I do not expect Sage to last long
I don't see how you can say that unless you were a witness to the decision making process that led to him being dropped.
 
Re the '' stern treatment '' of Canvot, which has allegedly upset the so called '' decision makers '' at Palace.

I don't recall those people being unhappy with Glasner when he subbed Esse on and then off at Anfield.
Although of course Glasner had delivered the FA Cup win the week before. Still, I would say that's equally harsh and in some ways maybe more so.

I'm treating that Manzi piece as just malicious gossip. His source, if there truly is one, clearly doesn't have Sage's best interests at heart.

In my opinion Sage has been dealt a poor hand by the club by selling Lacroix without an adequate replacement lined up.

Sage would have known the clubs plans/funds prior to taking the job.As per Glasner. Although he couldn't forsee certain things ie Sarr sulk
 
Reportedly he wasn't happy Canvot was omitted from the squad, not the team. I was surprised as indeed others may have been. It's an opinion. He's entitled to his although I take on board the back your manager stance.
I'm not impressed by Sage. It's all a bit wishy washy. I don't know what he's trying to achieve, apart from the obvious. I'm wondering about fitness levels which were good last year and as we all acknowledge he needs to sort that back 3 or go to a 4. Tomorrow won't be good and I'm dreading the Leeds game.
So who in his place you ask, well you've got me there. It'll be Dyche or similar. Howe wouldn't go near the job I suspect.
Reported, but not substantiated by any direct quotes from anyone. Just a made up story.

Yes, substantiated.

Sage was asked about it DIRECTLY at the press conference.
He confirmed that he had discussed the matter with Parish earlier in the week and indicated that Parish appeared satisfied with the response.

Not every negative Palace story is clickbait , even if there are a few journalists around who like to make mischief.
Fortunately this story has been put to bed for the moment.

The post said Parish wasn't happy with Canvot being left out. Now he is satisfied with the response from Sage.
So what do we believe?

Parish queried the exclusion, asked the question at a meeting with Sage, Sage answered, Parish was happy.
Not complicated and not clickbait.
If Parish wasn't querying it, there would have been no reason for Sage to give a response.
 
How does this "journalist" know Parish is unhappy? Did he speak to him? Did Parish give an update elsewhere and mention it to all and sundry? Has one of Parish's minions accidently on purpose spilt the beans? What is the true source of the "story"? Where is it on record?

It's made up bollocks.

Watch the press conference if you want to hear the exchange.
I don’t propose to print out the transcript when it’s there for everyone to see.
 
I haven't been able to access the item covering Sage's press conference on Palace's app, with a message telling me that the content is unavailable. I don't know if anyone else is experiencing difficulties
