Who's Next?

Southgate or Getafe manager. Palace is in danger this day from internal implosion.

You have to ask yourself does this happen at Brentford, at Fulham, at West Ham, at Wolves, even at Brighton and if not why are we singled out for this crappy behaviour?

I think there is always an inevitability that the likes of Olise, Eze, Marc and probably Wharton will move on to bigger (not necessarily better! ) things than Palace. We offer these young players real opportunities to showcase their skills and then sell at a good profit.
My issue with that is that I don’t feel we ever get the top prices the likes of Brighton and Brentford get. Yes 60 odd million is great but they seem to get 80-100m for players that are no better than those I have just mentioned. This may be because we set buy out clauses too low, but maybe that’s the only way we can secure them?

I think the reason we haven’t had great success recently in replacing them is there are not that many standout youngsters that would be available. We took a gamble on Esse, but he hasn’t been given much chance under OG.
The main reason for the lack of talent is the likes of Chelsea and City take all these players so young and fill their academies and then end up selling them at fees we can’t afford. (Palmer, McAtee, Bobb)
With regard to players getting too big for their boots we do see it at other teams (Isak for one) but it just seems that as soon as we have had some success the likes of JP and Munoz think they can demand champions league football and £150k a week, and the reason Brighton and Brentford maybe don’t have this is because they haven’t won anything! 🤣

There is no doubt OG and his team improved players like JPM, Sarr and Lerma to the point where they were like new signings

The powers at play in world football were put on notice as soon we lifted the FA cup. Corrupt chairmen and officials circled the wagons to ensure a small South London club didn’t disrupt the football ecosystem or money flow.

Parish didn’t have the experience, status or money to be able to navigate the headwinds!

One way or another it would have ended very badly for us. It’s almost a blessing the speed of decline as we haven’t threatened the long term financial stability of the club.

The same can be said about Leicester. The upper echelons don’t like it when upstarts come along and give them a bloody nose. They close ranks, change rules and then kick sand in our face.
But this time they will never take away that run at the end of 23/24 when we were the best team in Europe, with Olise, Eze and JP on fire, or our fa cup win and Charity shield triumph.
They can go fcuk themselves and we can go back to enjoying Saturday football.

To be honest, I don't give a sh!t anymore, not about the club tho. I've kind of come to accept it after the initial rage.
Never a dull day.

No, No, No, Yes, and No.

 

[Linford]

No, No, No, Yes, and No.

Wolves had a fire sale of their best and now the league table reflects it.

We are in the middle of one and we can see at Wolves where our future lays by continuing this path.

 

[Houston Eagle]

We can’t force players or managers to stay and we can’t pay over the top money to keep them happy.

The dice are loaded against teams like Palace by people more powerful than Parish.

This current group have made our dreams come true. Some will flourish elsewhere and win titles and others will crash and burn.

We have a great club and many more memories to cherish!
