Taylor is new Palace boss

[brighton rock]

PETER Taylor is set to be unveiled as the new Crystal Palace manager at a press conference tomorrow (Tuesday).

The Hull City boss is due to take over the Selhurst Park hotseat following weeks of speculation about who would succeed Iain Dowie.

The former Leicester, Brighton and Gillingham manager is sure to be a popular choice with the Palace fans having played for the club for three years during the mid-70s.

He already has a good insight into the club having worked with the likes of Eagles youngsters Ben Watson, Tom Soares and Gary Borrowdale as the England Under-21 boss.

 

[Man of Harveys]

SHIT He's quite good.

SOUNESS would have been better. Jordan out!

 

[Silent Bob]

I would have preferred a Souness-McGhee duo, or Managerial Dream Team if you will.

Peter Taylor will do alright I suspect.

 

[Gazwag]

[Deleted member 2719]

So they get there ex player to manage them can we now have ours please Deano.......................

 

[Icy Gull]

Always been a big fan of Taylor's since he was here but if he gets the scum promoted I'm gonna join the "got someone else's team promoted NSC clique" as it will obviously be Dowie who gets the credit, just like Adams and Pullis and the stadium at Hull got the credit for the last 4 promotions

 

[Wozza]

Let's hope he does a Leicester-style job again.

 

[the wanderbus]

I suppose this means a glut of u21 caps for palace players then,hopefully he'll repeat his acheivements at leicester rather than here , Hull & Gillingham

 

[Albion Rob]

Very good at clubs where the expectation level is high for a good reason.

Not so good with clubs who are punching above their weigth, and let's face it, that's what Palace are doing if they come anywhere above 10th then they're punchiong above their weight.

 

[C1 BHA]

Interesting.......he won't be able to just 'steady the ship' there. Might have to make a few decisions, we'll see.........

 

[Croydonbloke]

WELCOME HOME PETER.

Peter Tyalors Red and Blue Army.

 

[Commander]

Hate to say it but I'll reckon he'll take them up next year.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

So much for wanting to stay at Hull, where his heart is. Same old Taylor.

Good manager they have there.

 

[the wanderbus]

Hate to say it but I'll reckon he'll take them up next year.

you've had too much sun, go to a shady corner & repeat "palace are shit" 200 times

 

[zefarelly]

So much for wanting to stay at Hull, where his heart is. Same old Taylor.

Good manager they have there.

agreed on your first point but not sure he's quite that good to be honest, lets hope he gets shafted by Jordan and takes them to a relagation spot

 

[sir danny cullip]

I wonder if Jordan has got off his morale high horse seeing as he has now employed a manager who a month ago pledged his future to a club.

 

[WATFORD O]

No. Peter Taylor is a wanker and will screw palace. You should be partying! Ask Leicester!

 

[Parson Henry]

WELCOME HOME PETER.

Peter Tyalors Red and Blue Army.

Hope Jordan can spell his name right when he serves him a writ in 12 months time!!

 

[paulie]

Excellent appointment and will please the fans.

One of my first Palace heros - a great player for us.

 

[Albion Rob]

Good of Jordan to strike a blow for the code of ethics he is so keen on - by poaching another club's manager.
