Freedman - what experience does DF have in bringing in players to take us to the next level?
Is Dougie just a puppet brought in so Parish can play fantasy football? You have £25m plus money from player sales, what do you do with 10 days to go? Had Heno bought himself 6 months as our first choice keeper after Liverpool away?

Have you ever just thought you just can't be bothered with Palace and football any more

If Palace only sign one player before the transfer window closes in which position would you like it to be ?

Agree with much of what Kevin says about Dougie.

I agree with Kevin. I can sort of the the sense in bringing in a director of football/sporting director but why Dougie Freedman? He has no experience at this level, or in that role. A truly odd signing which will not work out. Not forgetting what he did to us when he left for Bolton. As Kevin said, amongst palace fans he is a devise person.
Does DF have the eye to spot/bring in players to take us to the next level? If we were in the Championship yes. In the PL? I'm not so sure.

I feel he is Palace. Just need some more ITK to prove it.

So Kevin has no clue what a sporting director does, yet knows what sort of person should do the job (and it's not dougie)? Righto

Good discussion as always.
I can see the frustration with appointing Freedman - he let us down badly and is very lucky to have a second chance at the club. I do think we need a football director-type role at the club so I think it's a good move to appoint one, although I am less certain about Freedman's credentials. I just hope it isn't a sly move in terms of having Freedman as a back up option if it goes tits up with FDB. I am also unsure about the relationship between this new role and Tim Coe's position. Anyway, it was a good pod - I agree with the panel that there were positives to take away from Liverpool, although I think everyone is under-estimating how limited our forward line is. Unless we sign two forwards I can't see us scoring many goals this season. |

Though just listened to the rest of the pod and Kevin said Sakho, if he signed, wouldn't necessarily be first choice. I find this incredible. Sakho is so clearly head and shoulders above any defender we have that it will be a case of building our defence round him. No other defender we have gets near Sakho in terms of his class.
Also, I don't think we should assume that FDB doesn't want him - this may just all be down to the money and a game of brinkmanship with Liverpool. |

Not quite pod related but we are doing the Palace For Life Foundation marathon walk as a pod.

I presume you're talking about the national front link.
To be fair I don't suppose admitting when you're wrong is something you identify with, is it? |

Just listening now and the opening rant from Kev was a tad over the top but as it settles down TBH there are a lot of good points/questions. At the end of the day SP can employ whoever he wants. As a fan we just get to puzzle over the logic. This one will take a long time to make sense. If it had been a temporary appointment to do some consultancy I think it would make more sense.
Even if this is a long term objective/decision I think SP would have been better off announcing it as that temp role first rather than a straight appointment out of the blue.

I agree. Comparing Dougie to Venables and Mullery was wildly over dramatic.
