Can Pulis Save Palace?

Canny appointment by Palace. If anyone can he can.

I know he ultimately saw us as a stop gap but I think he would have been able to get into the Premiership with a fair wind.

Awful but necessary football. I have a feeling that Stoke might live to regret releasing him.

Competing against the big money clubs in the Prem calls for basic methods. If you try to 'play' against them, with inferior players, they murder you.

He could have got us up and got the crowds pouring in to watch blood and guts football. Holloway could have done it with a bit more style.
Sadly, it needs a moderately wealthy owner, interested in the football side of club ownership.

With our soon to be boxed in stadium, it is unlikely we'll ever be fortunate enough to acquire one.

Having watched last night, I'd say no. West Ham were so unlucky not to go in 2 or 3-0 up. Palace played ok football - nothing like Stoke once did under Pulis. They'll need to spend a lot in January. They're my favourites to go down - I think they'll go down as the bottom team.

No, he can't, but Deano will.

He hasn't exactly had a chance to implement his methods on the side yet though!

Palace are shite but there are several other shite teams in the mix so although I initially thought Palace would definitely go down the change of manager so early on might be exactly what they needed. Having a month or so before the transfer window gives Pullis a bit of time to evaluate and stick in his January shopping list to the board.

Palace only have to be 4th worst come the season's end so he might.

I can't see Norwich, Cardiff or Manchester United getting many more points than Palace do.

So, yes, Pulis can save them.

Triffic Tone will do it. His players will certainly be made to work 'aaaaaaaaaaard. Next season he'll make Palace a mid-table side.

Yes he can. Pulis has never been relegated and is proud of that. He wouldn't have taken the job unless he had assurances money would be available and he if he's confident then Palace fans should be too. Palace have now conceded 1goal in their last three games. In true Pu style the defence will be sorted first.

Norwich, Fulham, Cardiff, Palace, Sunderland, Stoke and West Ham all look terrible this season.

Manure?

The Muncher has it, there are some poor sides around at the mo, I think it is perm 3 from 8 and tbf it could be any three.

Sorry. I meant City. Obviously.

The boy done good today!

It will go down to the last day i reckon but if he buys well in January i dont see any reason why he wont do. It would be a massive achievement worthy of manager of the year if he pulls it off.

When palace hired pulis, safety was assured, a top top manager in my book.

Actually I meant United not City all along.

LOL!
