I do generally back SP but the board has to shoulder some of the blame for the results. I know financial restraints make it difficult for us - but there is such an obvious distinct lack of leadership and experience in this squad.
Results business though - Sage has to go. #cpfc
Absolutely kills me when fans of clubs that havenโt won anything say they have ambition and Palace donโt. ๐๐๐

Look at the football. Look at the ambition. Look a the drive from the owner.. look at the fans..look at the stadium.
We are everything Palace arenโt. Even your gaffers aura..pub fella.
Humiliating today. Iโm not particularly interested in the board out/Sage out stuff tonight. The big question to ask tonight (or this morning after a few too many gins) is
Why the FUCK are we suddenly so easy to play against? There is a clear problem. (1)
The reaction to going behind was appalling. No control, no trying to slow the game down, no getting back into shape - no fucker shouting at players to stick to the system. I love Adam but IMO heโs not a captain.
Something has to change.
We donโt keep the ball well enough to take the sting out of games but weโre also not winning it high up the pitch. JSL is a finisher but has the hold up play of Pablo Counago.
So our defence is just exposed again and again and again.
3-0 down in 10 mins today is unacceptable.
When we lose the ball there are massive spaces either side of the CBs and the midfield isnโt getting across quickly enough.
The press doesnโt always stop the counter so suddenly we have teams running at our back 3.
Last season we could hurt teams with/without the ball.
The relationships between the back three CBs and the wing backs has gone. Riad being injured and Disasi being a goon hasnโt helped either.
Weโre still playing with aggressive wing backs but we donโt have the players behind them to do it safely anymore.
Today - first is a complete defensive collapse, second one tbf was probs goal of the season but the third is because we lost all control and had no experience in the back 5 to sort it out.
Guehi, Lacroix and Munoz gone. Three players who knew the fucking system inside out.
17 goals conceded in 7 games.
How we are conceding these goals is a joke btw.
Teams are getting into our box far too easily, attacking massive gaps in transition and getting players running at our defence (3/5 of which today were essentially children)
โForest are maaagicโ ๐
We may have lost the match but we won the singing ๐. #nffc #TrickyTalks #oliverglasner #marinakis
How this guy hasnโt had a sniff at an England squad I will never know. Mr Reliable.
Brentford/Bournemouth have never reached an FA Cup semi. Brightonโs last final was 1983. Palace have reached 3 finals (won it) + 2 semis since. But congrats on the revenue for finishing a bit higher up a league.
What is with this glazing of clubs who have achieved nothing?
Massive point, clean sheet, come back from int break with a fully fit Mateta and Sarr. Bring on Glasner! #cpfc
How do we go from absolute elation - the greatest period in the clubs history to utter deflation? HF gone, grumbles about the squad, transfers, manager, results. Itโs depressing man
๐จ @reluctantnicko reports that Pierre Sage is under huge pressure at Crystal Palace.
Parishโs dilemma is who to replace Sage with if he axes him before the international break.
