Next Palace Manager

The Palace Chairman has stated that he would not be approaching any club that has a manager in place.
It seems to me that he is waiting for the first Premiership manager to get the sack. Hence, could well be Jol, Hughton or even McKay.

    Can we at least make Palace threads 'Members Only' so no Palace fans can see how obsessed some of our fans are?

    Funnily enough a friend recently pointed me in the direction of a Palace run thread about the Charlton fans recently jailed.

    20 pages long.

    I can assure you I am not obsessed with Palace, it was just a bit of idle football chatter thats all.

    Why are you so obsessed with what Palace fans think?

    This. Sick of these threads.
  • Why do people open them if they don't like them?

    I can guarantee that if we got promoted to the prem, was losing week in week out and had parted company with our manager like they have, there'd be a fair few threads about us on their, tbh knowing them lot they'd even make a banner about it.

    Nah! We're not their rivals and they have no interest in us. Or at least that's what my Palace mates said when we spent all those years in the EPL whilst they dicked around in the Championship. Funnily, they seem to be saying quite a lot now though...

    This one's not very good as nobody has put up the picture of Appleton...always makes me chuckle that does.

    I genuinely think they'll go for a cheap/short term option for the rest of this season and then bring someone in over the summer on longer term basis to build.

    I reckon Powell would have to listen to them. He's got no financial support from TJ, if they offered him silly money to keep them up and/or a 4 year deal at prem manager wages he will be away, he would be mad not to!
    But I just hope they don't want him.....!

    Chris Powell would not move to Crystal Palace, to manage them in the Championship (which he will inevitably end up doing if he were to go there).

    All the stuff about lack of money, resources etc doesn't enter the argument IMO.

    He loves Charlton too much to do that to the fans. Other clubs maybe, not Palace.

    Don't want to know and don't care but chances are his name will not be too different from Stripey Nigel B'Stard!!

    I admire your optimism.
  • This is why I don't understand why Curbs wants the job. He's waited years to get a premier league job, which he rightly or wrongly deserves, and will only be in that job (before relegation) a few months. Don't get it.

    Why the hell would such a big club like the london eagles want Powell? Had one season where he got lucky with promotion, all because (despite promises) Sheff Utd didn't come good. Ever since then he's struggled to get us out of the relegation spots.

    Nah, nothing to see here..................
  • Powell's not going anywhere.
  • It'll be Coleman, he's hesitating over a contract with Wales and Wales allegedly want Pullis so it will all work out well. I just hope Coleman carries on his really good work at Palace.

    Apart from any other considerations - Powell knows he is building a reputation here and going there would be very risky at this stage of his career - so definitely won't happen.

    I don't think AC is short of a few bob with all the TV work he does but I don't see him turning down the Palace job if it was available, simply because it's an opportunity to get back in the game. Loyalty to CAFC will not be an issue, and, to be honest, why should it be?
