Come on, dont you know that received truth says that SC can do no wrong and that any altercations are because SJ interferes?

Think about all the players Coppell signed when with us and the ones he has signed at Reading. Now tell me that he wanted that lump of useless lard!

Lee Sinott, Paul Mortimor, Marco No Goalso, Glynn Hodges...he did sign some great players but also some expensive dross.....

I dont know the story but at the time he had a team of youngsters just out of the administration era I could guess an old talented
professional to add a bit of experience could have been on his list .....such as a Micky Droy type..

Dont get me wrong Sir Steve will always be a Palace hero.

Is he still speaking tonight? Do let us know how ghastly he was.

He fitted in well at West Ham which is more than can be said for that Israeli bloke that got assaulted on their training ground.

It's entirely plausible that Coppell wanted someone like Ruddock. We had a young, inexperienced team at the time which I'd say was similar to the team he took over in the 80's. First time round we got Micky Droy - this time we got Ruddock.

Its been widely reported that Coppell DID want Ruddock, its just that the Coppellites don't want to believe that their Idol had feet of clay.

According to Mr Ruddock himself, it was Coppell who wanted Ruddock. Coppell apparently knew the big lad only had 15-20 games a season in him but wanted Neil to lift the dressing room and add some experience. Two days later, Coppell was sacked. Ruddock also commented on Alan Smith being a bit mad and give naked team talks with a glass of red wine. Make of that what you will....

Foul-mouthed and yobbish. Like most footballers on the speaking circuit he gave the impression of having a set of anecdotes he went through and couldn't vary the performance to suit the audience. Made frequent trips to the Gents and came back each time seeming very elated. No doubt just relief from having emptied his bladder....
There were several other BBSers there so they may have more to say.

This led to SJ realising that it wasn't going to work with Coppell.
Surely no transfer would ever take place without SJ being happy with it and the terms of the deal. Can't see how Coppell could of gone ahead with the deal without SJ's full consent.

Coppell has always been better at signing unknowns from relative football backwaters than spending the big bucks successfully. You can see the same at Reading now and it will be interesting to see who he brings in if Madjeski gives him a decent war chest over the summer.

i have had the pleasure of meeting ruddock a few times as he used to drink in my dads pub. needless to say was a piss head. also been to a few charity golf days/ dinners with the likes of shearer and le tiss, razor always hammered. does a quality after dinner speech, might not have taken life at palace too seriously but he is a top man though

Probably because this was one of the reasons SJ realised that he couldn't work with Coppell. Coppell just went ahead with it and paid no heed to SJ's requests about contract clauses etc.

Razor was having none of it and shortly after he showed his studs to Bents chest and was sent off. Pretty sure we lost that game as well. What made it worse was that Bent was former Palace player who had once asked how Palace had got on in a post match interview for another team. Razor, I'm sure will be a good laugh etc but he werent much cop for us. Took his money and ran IMO.
I think Razor also had a go at Matt Jansen just after Matt jansen reportedly gave the trust some money to help buy the club. Razor was not fit to wear the shirt metaphorically and physically.

OK, Mal Adjusted you got me and I've 'bitten' - it may be many things but nondescript? As one of London's oldest schools (150 years +)it has a helluva history (read its history 'Burning Gold' by Howard Thomas), interesting architecture (quad building) and a ghost.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing on a lot of these threads. From Coppell's point of view, we were just out of administration, with a young and rather quiet squad. As Jordan took over, we did at last have a bit of money, so Coppell was looking for some experience, a character, and someone to symbolise the fact that we were now a buying club capable of attracting "big name" players. It didn't work out (and Ruddock turned out to be a disgrace), but the consequences of administration meant that proper long-term planning was impossible.
