Would have to ask Palace fans about this ironically enough, but did Pulis really play shit Football after leaving Stoke? Seemed at the time like he was able to adapt to the different players at a new club and change his style of play. Though that could just be a popular view from the outside.

He's here till the end of the season anyway, not that he'll get the job, that whole thing was made up.

So 10x better than Pardew then.

Don't like the last bit!! I don't see how Ashley could ask for compensation on top of the contract being paid. Surely if the contract is paid in full the club then has no power to keep him? Sounds like it might be made up, hopefully is like because no way are Palace paying that much.

If compensation really is a problem then we need to give them a hand, dig deep people its for the best cause ever! Sackpardew.com need to start a collection immediately!

You reckon a lot of other clubs outside of Man City, Chelsea, Man Utd and Arsenal have quality in depth in most area's though? I think it says quite a lot that its often when Pardews options are limited by injury that we win matches, in other words its his incompetence limiting us rather than the squad. We certainly have some obvious weak points, but a decent manager would do his best to negate those weaknesses. What Pardew does is make them infinitely worse. Weak in defence?, loan out Yanga-Mbiwa. Weak up front?, loan out Ben Arfa and give us 10 men by playing players Gouffran. No matter what you think of the squad you surely can't deny he makes it worse.

again, technically that is really the same as mid-table like Perhaps, but in that case the argument doesn't work as Pardew's had us finish 8th or above only once out of 4 tries. I realise you agree he's shit anyway, just saying.

We are absolute mugs when selling man, we only did 1 good sale deal in recent memory and that was 35M. The rest have all been sold well below value. Our recent record isn't great like, especially with the cunt ruining players and forcing them out on the cheap. Got a great deal with Carroll and good money for Debuchy, but we should have got at least £25m for Cabaye. We've also basically chucked away three of our best players in Ben Arfa, Yanga-Mbiwa and Marveaux for a combined £4m due to kingcunt being utterly clueless.

Played quite well against Man Utd IMO. Couple of loose touches at first as he was getting into the game. But after that showed some good bits of skill and kept/passed the ball well. Won us a free kick in a good position, took it himself and created a very good chance for Taylor. Worked hard as well, nothing particularly outstanding but a good cameo, needs to be getting 90 minutes consistently to judge him properly. Won't get it under kingcunt though. You've got to be on a wind up like

He does put Cisse to shame in many ways though, doesn't mean Cisse isn't a good goal scorer.

So did Shola say no or what?

I bet that even in those crazy shoes his ball control would still be better than most of the rest of our squad.

Man City player playing him onside standing right in front of the cunt who raised the flag, calling it a bad decision is kind, wonder how thick his manila envelope was?

Can't believe someone compared Ryan Babel to Hatem Ben Arfa

Nah not at all, just feel like being outraged Also their inexperienced keeper was actually a fucking international, all be it the Faroe Islands, but still first choice for his national team FFS!

Man City had two keepers injured and one out on loan and so would have had to play a inexperienced keeper in their place, pretty much identical to our situation. Yet they get the blessing of the Premier League and we're told to fuck off.

Did the Premier League actually explain why we can't have an emergency loan? Didn't Man City get one a few years ago just because Shay Given got a serious injury and their second keeper wasn't fit yet?

Think they've already been hit with the fine (though not paid yet). Currently trying to get out of paying but they've been told that if they don't pay they won't be allowed back in the Football League again. So if they don't pay and get relegated they'd have to play in the conference

Jesus why didn't he hit it when he got about 5 yards of space around De Gea?

Aye, a player in a onside position can't make someone else offside without touching the ball. Interfering with play is only used to decide if a player in a offside position who doesn't touch the ball has caused a goal and therefore become actively offside.

Interfering with play only affects a player who is in a offside position when the ball is played though.

Pardew in!!!

Krasnodar are taking the piss here like, should be 3 up at least.

That post is cringe like, especially "did nothing for us" and the Beardsley comment. Ben Arfa won plenty of points for us and entertained plenty to (lets not forget why we watch Football). On Beardsley, I've said before that he seems like a bit of a prick, but as a Footballer he was one of the greatest I've ever seen and I'd defend him on that score to anybody. Also how many times do people have to say that they see Ben Arfa's flaws but want him despite that before it sinks in? Isn't that balance?..

What? Aye, 27 points out of 34 games in 2014 and sitting third bottom of the league = great apparently
