This business model will produce the training ground and subsequent cat A listing, it will produce the new stadium and we will achieve these things from a position of solvency You just need patience and belief, surely the hallmarks of being a palace fan

Parr was out of contract and refused the new one offered him It was also pretty clear that Pulis didnt rate either of them highly, hence Ward at Left back most of the time

So many assumptions, when the fact is if TP is to be judged that can only be done on his record with us and any achievements. And if that is the case, he puts forward a very strong argument in his favour, but sadly for whatever reasons He and SP were unable to agree on policies or to compromise on views. We will never know the real reasons to his departure, as none of us are privy to the facts. What we must never forget is where we were when Pulis took over along with the group of players he inherited, and where we ended up with hardly any financial backing to strengthen the team, was nothing short of miraculous.
Fans on here have made so many assumptions of what his demands were and if granted would have left the club possibly bankrupt, the facts are prior to him leaving his spending on players was £1.9m, the lowest by a long way to any other club in the premiership, is that acceptable? there were players that he wanted so as to take us to the next level quite rightly, but that did not materialise for whatever reasons. If we were to put ourselves in his position, would we not be disappointed? having achieved and exceeded any targets set by a country mile, and then feel you are not being supported financially would disillusion anybody. As for Steve Parish, there is no questioning he is a Palace fan and also part owner, so must show responsibility in any financial planning/spending when running the club, also when supporting his manager. However, if you expect to compete in a very competitive league and reap the financial benefits by staying in the premiership, then that needs substantial financial backing, and on the face of it appears this was not so. As many on here have pointed out by our signings made to date, have the Board made a mistake? only time will tell. My own view is YES we have, we had a formula that worked well for the club but that also must come at a financial cost long term, to say this would come as a surprise to established businessmen like our owners is being very naïve, and that is one thing they are Not. When Pulis was appointed surely all of these issues and any demands I am sure would have been discussed and put on the table, so when the split came was even more baffling to most fans. All we can now hope is Warnock brings stability, Parish allows his manager to MANAGE with support when needed, and he does what he does best in his business field. We fans have seen sufficient turmoil at CPFC in the past few seasons, lets see stability and long term success for a change. |

- Pullis knew that his stock would never be higher as Palace manager. How do you better being manager of the year and assisting in the survival and midtable placing of a side that was bottom of the league. Would staying any longer improve his reputation more than it is now? Probably not - He wanted more money and thought his bargaining power would be at it's peak on the eve of the season. Surely no club owner would let a manager walk just two days before a new season kicks off - Parish called his bluff - He thought that the original business model described to him and sustainable purchases would go out the window and SP would be convinced out of it. He wasn't I'm not suggesting for one minute he didn't do an amazing job but to me he's a slippery snake

We'll probably never know but it's just a real shame that it came to this as it would have been great to have had Pulis here for 2 or 3 years to help really establish us in the PL. Even though he was only here a short time, though, he has moved us forward significantly. Let's hope Warnock can do his bit before we find someone for the long term. |

Managers will always want to spend money, they couldn't give a shit if it ****s the club up long term. CPFC2010 have to think longer than TP's 2yr contract. Do you think Pulis cares that Stoke lost £31m in their last season? Do you think TP cares that the chairman had to cover that loss? Footballers and managers (on the whole) live in a bubble, it's CPFC2010's remit to make sure these people with NO financial qualifications aren't allowed to risk CPFC long term finances, and they're doing a great job.

Maybe so but we do know they disagreed on the transfer policy so that has to have something to do with it. My assumption is that Pulis gave Moody & Parish a list of players that he wanted, and based on the players we went for i.e. Caulker & Sigurdsson it looks like this list consisted of players on very large wages for a club of our size, therefore SP was understandably hesitant about spending this sort of money.
I would love to see the list of players Pulis gave them. |

The problem with some people on this site is that they can't see there is a middle way between blowing millions of pounds and going into administration, and spending peanuts. I would have hoped Pulis and Parish could have agreed a way forward that gave us the best chance of staying in the league, while not risking the club's long-term future. I agree CPFC2010 have done - and are doing - an amazing job. But one issue for me is that they are rifling through the managers - 4 in 4 years is not ideal. They need to find an eventual successor for Warnock that will establish the club over a longer period. |
