Interesting that the players think he’s going to be sacked soon according to the BBC Gossip pages.

I witnessed that too. Within seconds it was full and from that momemt we never stopped singing. Think I recalled Cockerill scoring one of the goals.

Was there not a report while back that Ralph had until the end of October to turn it around otherwise Mr Howe’s would be taking over? IMHO Ralph’s had enough time and it’s not suddenly going to come right for him. The man is broken, the teams confidence is shot and so it’s time for a change.

Looks like you have two accounts!

Looks like someone needs to get a life!

21/22 Third Round Aston Villa 5:4 on pens 20/21 Fourth Round Spurs 5:6 on pens 19/20 Fourth Round Man Utd 1:2 18/19 Final Man City 3:4 on pens 17/18 Semi-Finals Arsenal 0:0 1:2 16/17 Fourth Round West Ham 1:2 15/16 Fourth Round Stoke City 5:6 on pens

If we put out a strong team with 3,000 supporters cheering them on then I don’t see why we can’t win it. Chelsea don’t always have a strong run in this cup as it always clashes with the champions league. Going a nervy 2-1 to Saints.

Yes certainly an exciting prospect and hopefully in training this week Ralph will see how impressive he is.

There you go grumpy

Broja must start, that is all.

I personally think it will be a loan option as we should have one to use up. Its a matter of the right player becoming available if the team he’s from gets the ones they want in. So who’s buying what in the last few days? Maybe West Ham, Villa and Liverpool could have a no 6 who’s not going to feature for them?

I get the impression that Djenepo starts as Ralph prefers his left back covering. He tried KWP as left back today and probably felt it might of been a gamble in doing so. IMHO when Ralph realised that it’s better to put both Tino and KWP on the same right flank we will be flying again. He just needs to find the correct combo on the left and it might just involve S Armstrong.

I agree with you too, We played well second half vs Manchester United when he put the extra midfielder in. I just think if we had a good ball winner this would give us a better option.

So you would not kiss your Palace badge while doing a knee slide in front of the chapel?

Don’t shoot the messenger but I heard Ronaldo was offered to all teams in the EPL and we turned down the offer. I can only guess it was for financial reasons or perhaps we didn’t need a striker.

I do believe Armstrong wants a move back up north but unless we get an offer for him then it’s not happening. Must remember that Vestergaard and him were the best of buddies and this might of made things even more difficult. If Christie was an option then at least you move on a unhappy player member like Ings and Bertrand.

Shouldn’t have a problem selling him now for 10m and getting a better keeper in, Thats what I would do.

Which is it with us and 9 NILS?!?

I reckon a loan midfielder who’s captain sort. Someone who can teach the youngsters something like Henderson does at Liverpool. However it depends if we can get one or two off our wage bill.

We need a keeper that can save the ball and clear crosses when they go into the 6 yard box. Is that not what all keepers are suppose to do. Just why have we got two that can’t do that?

Good we are getting our identity back. Buy talent, play them and sell on big. This will attract the best talent in the country as they know we will give them a chance plus let them move onto bigger things. Very much the Dortmund style.

Why am I hoping for a heavy defeat so Ralph gets sacked. Thats sooooooo wrong of me, sorry!

What the fuck is that team? OMG why do I bother hoping that my manager picks a decent team plus gets his subs right. KWP right back, Tino right midfield, Tella left midfield and we might just do something as that will at least worry the opposition. 1-4 I’m afraid as Ralph has set out his stall for a small defeat.

I think the biggest problem is he’s surrounded by shit coaches which is making him doubt himself even more. A successful manager always has a great team around him that takes some of the load off his shoulders. Seriously can you see JWP or Kelvin Davis etc stand up and give a proper team talk at half time?

If Torino sold him to us for 22million would that satisfy some of you more? Perhaps he is a bargain and can shore up our leaky defence. Got to give him a chance as some players rise to a new challenge and this could be just that.
