They have a good catchment area, if they weren't in London, they'd be lower to mid table Championship level. 

 

When Conor Gallagher was there with Zaha, they at least were somewhat interesting, they've been getting worse since Viera left.

Yeah it's a really decent area for footballing talent.

 

The Surrey area also has some really nice places to live, and the transport connections to London are really good.

 

The club is just badly managed I think.

The problem is that Parish is a fucking moron, just like Simon Jordan was. A footballing dinosaur.

 

Every time he tries to move on from Hodgson he ends up with Viera or De Boer.

 

How about hire someone genuinely transformative? Brighton manage it, Brentford manage it. Fulham managed it to a degree.

 

The fact he keeps relying on Roy tells you everything an absolute failure of imagination and ambition.

 

If Parish was here, he tell us that he doesn't have the finance to compete but he doesn't have the morals to seek new investors or indeed new owners to make sure of the clubs future. Wheres the vision?

Not picking on you but I do hate posts like these. Palace had 5 or 6 seasons in the highest division of English football in the 30 odd years before Parish took over. Since Parish has taken over about 11 or 12 years ago, they’ve had a decade in the top division.  Hardly a ‘fucking moron’.  
 

Granted they’ve not kicked on like Brighton and that’s a limitation of his leadership. But on the whole he’s done a brilliant job.

If they weren’t in London, they wouldn’t be Crystal Palace.

Postecoglu making Conte look an absolute dunce. Having lost Kane too.

 

The whole Bissouma thing is particularly shocking.

Conte was doing well until he got the hump. They were on pace for 70+ points until he started really moaning.  And even then they did ok.  
 

 

Football was dire though.

Palace have a huge catchment area - the largest of the biggest 50 clubs in England. 

Save for one or two individual years, this is the most successful time in their history. Palace could have never been described as a big club, but the fact that they're in London and have a huge local population with no competition in their backyard means they surely have the potential to be among the biggest clubs in the country.
