Strike one, Rafa.

The prominence with which "day to day responsibilities for all football matters" keeps being repeated in reports etc is great. publicly marking his territory.

What's even the point of little lee then? "Charnley to stay on in a non-impact role as the fans enjoy clowning on him too much."

What's stopping you?

I hope Allardyce and Pulis use their evil footballing powers to troll Pep into an early grave.

Reckon the clear out is going to be immense as well

Tony Soprano-esque.

Lee "Disaster" Charnley at your service.

Didn't know Eddie Izzard was a Palace fan

"demand to bored" :lol: Ryder got a new job, like? Spelt 'focussed' the American way too Pretty sure he just hoys the article up then comes here to correct the laundry list of errors pointed out

Words won't even do to describe how pissed off I'd be. Blood's nearly boiling just thinking about it, prepping myself for the let down and rage.

I'm leaking.

Surely that's what is being written into the contracts now though and why it's taking a while to confirm? I'm tentatively optimistic but there are nagging doubts - not over whether he'll sign but whether what they sign means anything to the regime. Until such time as Rafa exits the club on good terms, I'll be skeptical that they won't try to fuck him over regardless of assurances/contractual obligations as they have priors. Keeping control might just be worth paying out a few million in comp via a tribunal. Unless the contract has a clause (and I doubt it does) with insane punitive damages, like £100m for breach of terms, that option will always be floating out there for them. "But that would be the second manager to be dicked over in such a fashion, surely they'd fear the hit on their reputation?" There's always another McClaren/Pardew/Kinnear ready to agree to be a puppet. They don't care if the show is shit as long as they're still the ones running it. Not trying to be a downer. But I can't shake the doubt and fear.

Coming out with this in a post match was peak van gaal. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ZC5UNxmu3E

mike gleefully scrolling through page after page of 'sad leprechaun' results in google image search, waiting to pull the trigger on a palace win

Would be mint if Cabaye had one of those days where he snaps and goes radge.

ian darke dropping 'crystal phallus' a few times. i like to imagine it's intentional

Wasn't Mata offside? Didn't interfere with the defender but would have been surely called for obstructing the view of the keeper if it had gone in
