Pardew's not a CP legend like. Cult hero- yes. Legend? GTFO.

But touchy aren't we? For a club who've won f*** all in their history,the bloke who scored the goal that took them to their solitary Wembley final isn't a legend?

 

 

No, he's not. His playing career is similar to his managerial career. A couple massive highlights clouded by incessant mediocrity. He was a bit of a joke before the goal. Considering he CP have spent most of their recent history in the Championship, if Pardew was such a legend there he would've been there manager a long time ago.

Rare mention of Pardew here.

 

Palace are my local team. I don't let their fans talk nonsense about NUFC. Or NUFC fans talk nonsense about CP.

A couple of massive highlights in his playing career? What was the other one? And yes, he was the epitome of mediocrity at best, but surely that only aids his legendary status. It is cultish yes but you're just splitting hairs really. As for him not being a legend because he has only just become their manager, and didn't manage them in the Championship, well that's just insane.

Here's some Palace legends that I remember

 

Jim Cannon, captain of Allison's side which made the semis of the Cup in 76

 

Malcolm Allison, manager of said side

 

Terry Venables, manager of the so called Team of the 80s.

 

Paul Hinshelwood, played right back for them for years.

 

Geoff Thomas, longstanding captain though shite, managed to play for England.

 

John Jackson, keeper for years, think he replaced Bill Glazier, who is a Coventry City legend.

 

Ian Wright, probably their best striker, working superbly in tandem with Mark Bright.

 

Kenny Sansom, one of Englands finest left backs ever.

 

Alan Pardew, only Crystal Palace player ever to score a goal to take them to a Wembley stadium final. Though he was shite.

It's like telling a child that they're right just to get them to shut up, this.

Had a terrible end of the season. I think before the last match he was only ahead of us and Hull.

 

Honestly can see him and Carver both going down next season.
