Bolton chasing Freedman

[Bwian]

If Bolton want him, he is as good as gone. Freedman is Palace through and through. He must have played there for a dozen years. But Palace are skint, so Parrish wants the compensation money. Very similar to our situation with Coppell. Coppell wanted to stay, Knight wanted the money...Which manager worth his salt, would stay at a club where he knows the chairman is more interested in the compensation, he can get for you that the job you could do for his club

Could be that the CPFC2010 Gazillionaires are happy to let Doogie go knowing that he'll be sacked within 6 months. They get compensation for somebody whose contract runs out in 7 months anyway and after he gets fired they get him back for nothing.

I think he won't go but you never know what happens at football clubs behind the scenes it just seems like if he does go that some of the stuff he has been spouting about our younger players staying and not chasing the dollar would make him look like a prick in most Palace fans eyes.
Typical of Palace to get something good going then balls it up I've seen it all over the years.
If he goes it could destabilise us for a while ,and answers will be sought from the owners but all this is just speculation and could be a good way of DF negotiating at better deal at Selhurst.
Too many overreacting on our boards .

 

[Dougie]

I think dougie will go sadly , nothing surprises me about palace but i must admit this has . Oh well in someone else we trust .

.

Most likely outcome IMO.

When does his contract run out?

Can't you ask Seaside ? - I thought he knew everything that goes on inside Palace.

Don't worry he'll stay and lead you on one of the worse runs of defeats in Palace's history and then you can all start slagging him off again.

Ps - less than 200 at Barnsley tomorrow IMO

Lennie Lawrence is defintely the brains in the managerial outfit. DF takes the credit when it all falls into place.

 

[Max Paper]

Apparently freedman is on the radio right now? London something or another, any ideas as to what's being said?

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

Freedman joins Bolton, signs Zaha in Janurary, Palace drop into a relegation battle.

The best ever scenario could well come true

 

[greyseagull]

I know the likes of Coyle and Kean will be mentioned if he does leave, but I seriously think Karl Robinson would be a wise choice for CP - particularly given the impact his No.2 Ian Wright will have on the club

No ! I'd like to see Alan Mullery in there.

"Isn't it ironic, don't you think?".....that our Palace friends went on and on about Gus supposedly verbally prostituting himself for other managerial jobs a while back and yet it's Dishy Douglas Freedman (@8Ace) who's now talking to another club.

June I think.
Bizarre thing to say on Thursday if he does decide to leave. We could all understand if it was any Premiership club but Bolton I live in the past Wanderers FFS.
At the moment at Palace it's his team really he signed most of the players in the squad or worked with the youngsters so if he does go it must be about the cash or maybe he and the owners have some issues.
What will be will be ..,..managers (legends) and players come and go but the fans remain ,spending their hard earned.

That's banter mate I honestly think the premiership will come calling for Poyet.When is anyone's guess......
You just know what's going to happen in football and it would be f-cking boring if we did.

Very true.

If it really is June, then CPFC2010 seem to have dropped one in not extending his contract earlier......

Imagine, just imagine...

Bolton maybe £100M in debt but they do have the parachute payments in place to mount a return to the Premier League. The overall playing budget at Bolton must be 3 or 4 times larger than it is at Palace and Dougie could be doing Palace a favour financially when he swoops for Zaha and Williams in January.

 

[Bigbelly]

Wonder how much Palace would want in compo, £2 million at least as he is the next best up and coming young manager by all accounts.

Yeah Bolton have more money than us with the parachute payments etc.Zaha will not end up there neither will Williams

£2m in compo for a manager who's contract is up in seven months ?
