This is the most joyful aspect for me. It was stomach churning we gave them Glenn in the first place to see him fire them to promotion and now the complete mirror has occurred and we have had the last laugh. Bloody delicious.

Even more delicious was Murray's winner against them in the FA cup.

I just can’t belive they made the same mistake. It was always CLEAR to me he wasn’t given the chance at CP2010FC in the prem. most of their fans knew it - they resorted to Adebayor etc over him - amazing!
From the last post...
If we get relegated I might totally lose interest as I did in the mid eighties when we were total s***e but I won't know until it happens. I do know that time becomes more precious as you get older and I don't want to waste it on a club with no ambition. I have given them plenty of time already.
See that? Admitting a lack of commitment and a lot of plasticity. Bloody lightweight. We took our lumps at the arse end of the league for years and still came back for more. It’s called support.

From the "Find a goalscorer...." thread, it seems that more and more Palace are actually starting to come to terms with the fact that they are skint, their finances are in a disastrous situation re FFP and they have a squad stuffed with overpaid, overvalued shite that nobody else would touch with a free transfer because of their wage demands.

I thought Hodgson had got Palace looking organised and if they had scored the penalty (which I think WAS a pen, albeit soft) then I fancy they would have come away with at least a draw.
I was surprised that Hodgson didn't put on any subs until after he was 2-0 down on 89 minutes.
I see Palace got the most Prem penalties last season (10 - scoring 8) but yesterday's was their first in 9 matches. Worrying times for the Eagles.

Noticeable though, that there are tonnes of Palace fans bemoaning the lack of subs, but not a single one (that I saw) mentioned who should be brought on - i.e. they had **** all on the bench, hence why Roy didn't make a change until too late.
Not sure if this is a pisstake or not. An amazing list of no hopers and no chance they'd go there'ers.

This guy thinks that Pardew would keep them up and that Harry Redknapp's "last few jobs have been successful".

Remember Roy only got the job because he's a local lad done good(ish).
So this replacement will need to fulfill the same criteria, making Sue Perkins an early favourite.

Eddie Izzard would liven the place up, although he fails the “locally born” test having been born in Aden
Or, with similar knowledge of football, perhaps Disney could let his mate Not So Bright have a crack?*

Amazing isn't it. They've got the best German footballer of ALL TIME being left on the bench in place of Jeffrey Schlupp and neither Roy or the Palace fans seem to think it was a good idea to bring him on
'Much better squad in every position but still dreadful in arguably the most important position of all - striker. Is there any team in this division, perhaps except Cardiff, with a worse strike force than us? Unacceptable and could cause a very, very expensive squad to get relegated and all of our progress to be undone.
If we get relegated we'll take massive losses on the likes of Benteke and Sakho just to get them off our wage bill. PVA, Wilf, Meyer, Tomkins, maybe Luka and Townsend will all go too, and when you consider we're paying 50+ grand per week for the likes of Schlupp and Riedewald, you wonder if we'd really have the money to renovate the squad. Our transfer business has been so appalling that relegation would be pretty ruinous.

Palace and ‘arry is a match made in administration heaven, it gets my vote.
You can almost hear the cogs whirring...... "Everything those Brighton fans have been saying for years......Oh my ****ing God.....They were right!!".

Given Palaces penchant for managerial blood letting, hows’s this for a scenario.
Uncle Roy is gracefully retired ( or sacked, as it’s also known) and allowed to shuffle off to the Failed Palace Managers Retirement Home, to take his place with Pardew, and Wurzel. Given Parrishs preference for British managers, and seeing as Palace have more or less employed all the firefighters amongst them, except one, David Moyes is given the poisoned chalice. He saved West Ham last season, so, not such an unlikely outcome.
The best bit though, would be Mr Tumble re-United with Moyes daughter.
True love will always find a way, I love a romantic ending.

Yep. Either would be perfect tbf. How about a dream team double act. Dancing Al to relegate them while 'Onest 'Arry bankrupts them (not that that would take much doing they way they're going).
It's almost as if the 'build it and they will come" adage is true.
In fairness so is:-
"Don't build anything and have to pay through the nose to make people come"
What DOES Mark Bright actually DO, at Palace?
Does he have any official role?
Is he an 'advisor' to Parrish?
