These people wanting #Pulis. Take your heads for a wobble, would render our midfield signings useless if we go long ball every game #NUFC

 

 

[Ndegwa]

The idea that Pulis plays 'horrible football' or 'constant long ball' is a bit of a lazy & ill-informed summary imo. I went to Selhurst a lot last season with my Palace-supporting mate and I have to admit it wasn't the aerial wankfest you would come to expect for a Pulis side; yes they whacked it forward from time to time but a lot of the time they tried to play between the lines, take care of possession until the final third, use their wingers to create some width and get runners in and around Chamakh, Jerome & even Wilbraham when he played. Some of their interchanging and movement (especially when Puncheon, Ince & Gayle played with Jedinak as the anchor) was on a different stratosphere to anything we've done in the last couple of years. Palace didn't see a lot of the ball when the big boys came to town but unlike Pardew & his teams, they weren't afraid to be bold when they had the ball by either breaking quickly (and more importantly on the deck) or being patient and moving the ball. I thought tactically Pulis was great last season, had a good mix of passing and sending early balls into the big strikers. To be honest it was a pleasure to watch and Selhurst has a fantastic atmosphere.

 

Pulis would genuinely be an upgrade, but like others I'd love to have a more continental, expansive manager in. Plus if Pulis walked 'cause Parish wouldn't buy Gylfi Sigurdsson...I wonder how he'd react to working with Ashley 

[Yorkie]

What a prick jumping ship at this point.

[The College Dropout]

Agree with Degs. I live near Selhurst Park and saw a good number of games under Pulis. There's two massive differences betwen Pulis & Pardew.

 

Palace where genuinely well organised. I their biggest defeat under him came against us. Otherwise it looked like every player had been drilled and drilled to defensive perfection. Can't say the same for our lot.

 

And secondly - while the wide lads and 10 worked hard - they where genuinely expected to create something. When they got the ball all 4 of Palace's attacking players (wide men, 10, striker) played some great stuff and they had some CM's in the box too.

 

Think Pulis was actually lucky to already have Puncheon, Bolasie, Gayle, Thomas and sometimes Bannan has wide and #10 options. Ince too when he arrived. All pacey, skilful or ball-playing players who mostly want to carry the ball and play good stuff. He let them do it and they where in the side for that purpose. Not the let's play Jonas shit Pardew does.

 

I don't think Sherwood is a terrible move. People laughed when they appointed Pulis.

[Collage]

It'll be Malky Mackay I reckon. He's worked with their sporting director before.

[TRon]

Sherwood is better than Pardew. I'd take him here.

 

I wouldn't take him here, but I agree he's better than Pardew. Cheaper as well from Palace's point of view.

[Robster]

I've been at Dortmund. I watched them go from 1-0 down, almost like Klopp giving them a head start, to 5-1 up, each goal a devastating counter-attack. I then watched 80,000 people chant Klopp's name until, finally, he smiled and waved at the crowd. At no point did Klopp think they would lose and, in turn, at no point did the crowd think they would lose.

 

Just imagine having a manager like that. A manager that not only wants to win, but gets mad and says "OK, we're going to absolutely batter you now". A manager that makes the crowd 100% sure they will come away with the win and will be shocked at anything less. It was heart-breaking, man

I don't have to imagine. His name was Kevin Keegan.

SSN reporting that Mackay won't be the new Palace boss. Currently in talks with other candidates.

[KaKa]

Mackay and Sherwood talk seemed very hasty. Not surprised it is neither one tbh.

 

The chairman really should go for someone that knows him and is from the area after having to change manager so often so far, this has to be the next course of action.

 

Pardew is the one. Come on Parrish. Do it.

You never know. The guy keeps getting rid of managers. He's close to Pardew. He might go for it.

Ashley would want too much to buy out Pardews contract.

Pulis is a very good manager defensively. I live in Plymouth and go to games here on and off, there was a spell where he took Argyle on for a season after his first stint with Stoke. Argyle had just done their first season back in the 2nd tier but had a weak squad and finished 17th. He managed to get Argyle extremely tough to beat with some pretty poor players on the fly, they finished 14th mostly down to not having enough attacking prowess. A lot of supporters think it could have been the drop without him coming in that year. That defensive spine went on to give Ian Holloway a great platform to turn Argyle more attacking as they had back to back seasons mid-table where a bit more investment and luck could have seen a play-off position finish.

 

Pulis's football isn't easy on the eye but he is really good at making a solid defensive foundation at a club. He definitely can make a team defend better than the sum of their parts.

[Sima]

Ashley would want too much to buy out Pardews contract.

 

For example a pack of Refreshers and a Dan Bar.

[r0cafella]

Ashley would want too much to buy out Pardews contract.

Ashley also doesn't want Pardew to go anywhere.

 

Perfect manager for him.

[hakka]

Ashley would want too much to buy out Pardews contract.

 

Ashley seems to like his managers tied down to a contract is in his favour, but also with the manager working in tandem with his money spinning mid-table finishing 'buy cheap and sell big' style approach. Most managers won't actually settle for that, they would want the support that this club should offer and to use that to challenge way above the 48 point mark. Most managers wouldn't come here unless it's a massive step up for them to agree to work with Ashley's terms.

Cardiff City owner Vincent Tan has taken the ultimate revenge on Malky Mackay.

 

Crystal Palace yesterday did a dramatic U-turn and withdrew their job offer to former Cardiff boss Mackay.

 

It came after Cardiff submitted a dossier to the Football Association questioning Mackay’s conduct during his reign at the Welsh club.

 

Mirror Sport understands the dossier also names Palace director of football Iain Moody who worked with Mackay at Cardiff.

 

Several top agents and lawyers are also named in the document while it is understood that Tan has refused to pay commission to agents on almost all of the deals done under Mackay’s reign.

 

Cardiff have questioned the level of fees, commission and role of agents in several deals during Mackay’s two years at the club, which the team won promotion to the top flight for the first time since 1962.

 

Cardiff are also set to pursue legal action against Palace and Moody in the “Spygate” case.

 

Palace were fined £10,000 by the Premier League last week after it was alleged that Moody got the Cardiff line-up before they played his former club last season in a vital relegation match.

 

The dossier and allegations appear to have persuaded Palace co-chairman Steve Parish to put on hold the appointment of a new boss.

 

Mackay, who has strenuously denied any wrongdoing, had been offered a three year contract and a way back into football following his sacking by Cardiff last December.

 

In the bitter fall-out from his sacking Mackay launched a £7.5million legal claim against the club.

 

But he dropped his claim and reached a settlement with Malaysian tycoon Tan, with the Scots boss making a statement apologising “without reservation” for any offence he may have caused.

 

Parish was expecting to appoint Mackay as Tony Pulis’s successor after last season’s manager of the year left the club just 48 hours before the big kick off in a row over the direction of the club.

 

Palace are now looking at other targets and may turn back to Tim Sherwood. The former Tottenham boss is the bookies’ favourite to land the vacancy.

 

Mirror Sport contacted the Football Association, lawyers for Cardiff and Tan’s representatives for comment and understand the Football Association have received the dossier.

 

The FA said last night: “We have no comment to make.”

 

It is understood that the FA are now likely to have to investigate the claims put forward in the documents presented by Cardiff.

Vincent Tan could teach Ashley a few tricks.
