Hopefully Palace don't appoint anyone before we play them, don't want them getting the dead cat bounce.

Clubs always get a bounce when a new manager comes in, and if the bounce is sustained, its yet another problem we've got.

I honestly think we're in big trouble.

I don't think you need to be worried. For very example of a manager making a difference, there are two examples of it not mattering a jot. Palace are a poor side, probably made poorer with Warnock, but when you're relying on the strike force they have and two wingers who couldn't cross he road suggests that it would take something extraordinary to help see them through. They got that last year, it may happen again, but either ways it's not our concern.

Yes we obviously are just because of the bounce! The 7 clubs below us will appoint new managers and we are heading for the championship.

We don't have to finish bottom to be relegated, sadly. Not that I think we will be, just saying like.

 Good old Alan Macinally on Sky Sports describing David Silvas goal as a good shite instead of a good shot.  ;D

I see Martinez is being found out a bit in his second season at Everton. 3-1 down now to Newcastle

I guess betting the family silver on Eto, Kukaku and Barry hasn't paid off.

The names put forward for the Palace gig is a good reason to stick with Lambert a while longer.  However I can see one of the Liverpool clubs panicking and when they do, I'd hope we would be in for either Rodgers or Martinez (probably best to keep Rodgers away from transfers though).

Can see a few news channels tonight suggesting Pardew, specifically because he didn't show up for any of the post match interviews.

Yep, they're saying exactly that on MOTD.
Probably a good move for all concerned.

Fantasy scenario. Pardew goes to Palace and the smug twat gets relegated. Newcastle collapse after he leaves and they also get relegated. QPR and Droopy join them, and somehow Albion manage to make it 4 relegated.

Why is Pardew linked with Palace
Newcastle are higher in the league, bigger spenders, a lot bigger club,

I don't understand the link
