I'm happy he came on, can't wait to see my beloved Palace in the premier league. Everybody knows we're coming back down but we got to try our best to stay up.

prob only bought him on to give him a farewell to the fans.

i liked him when we had him but then again think he was past his best when we signed him, we should have signed him the season he scored the equaliser for leeds on last day of season to relegate us. since then he's not been as good.

padrew should have left it as it was, they just had two goals disalowed and were on top of them so what do you do, i know and think it went like this:

padrew: hey dowie i bet you a tenner i can throw this game
dowie : your on
padrew : ref sub im taking my strike force off
dowie : god damn you to hell padrew here have your f**kin tenner, ill tell you what ill make it £20 if you take that twat connelly off he's playing well
padrew : ref sub, david your off, don go on and dont touch the ball ok
hutchinson : ok gaffer
dowie : heres your other tenner

*dowie leaves smilng to him self as may have lost £20 but realises will get a good bous for making his boses £30 million*

*padrew looks like this , o yeh bye dowie ill see you next season*

*dowie - *

well i think it went something like that anyway

Just so I know, as I didn't watch the whole game, this is the Leigertwood tackle right? Because you can clearly see he gets the ball first.

Dunno who made the challenge but Carrick went down on the inner edge of the box. No ball taken. Clearly chopped his ankle.

Good for Palace, Alan Pardew is an arrogant little cunt who thinks he's hot stuff for taking good teams other people have built and getting them into the playoffs (not just West Ham but Reading also). Yes he's bought a few players but the basis of West Ham's team was there before he got there, with that squad they should've won Div 1 by a country mile. Now they're going to have to sell at least Carrick and they'll struggle to make the playoffs next year by my reckoning.

I agree 100% with that. With Defoe, Carrick, James, Repka, Conolly, Reo Coker and Harewood (okay, some of them arent premiership quality, but they're more than good enough for Div 1) they should've been challenging West Brom and Norwich.

Had Pardew stayed with Reading he would probably have done better than he did with West Ham, by leaving Reading he unsettled them and pretty much fucked up their season.

Oh well *blows premiership bubbles with Harry Redknapp, Hayden Foxe, Shaka Hislop and Svetoslav Todorov*

Just seen that penalty incident again,the defender did sort of brushed the ball but it wasn't clear contact with it,so it probably was a penalty.Palace defended well enough to have earnt the win though.

Well whether the ball was played against him or not it certainly brushed against him but like i say he seemed more intent on playing the man,so still a penalty.

Just checking from Sid's stance.

He brushed the ball first, I'm fairly certain of that

Nah it was before,but he was going for the player anyway,he may claim to have been going for the ball but he slid in a different direction so still a penalty.

Doesn't really matter though.

I'd rather have this Heinze fella. He looks strong enough plus we don't need centre backs who try 80 year runs more than once every game.

Kluivert has rejected Middlesbrough, surprisingly.

He wants to play in London, and not for a small club before Spurs get too excited.

In other words, he wants to play for Arsenal or Chelsea.

He always has. I don't know why he keeps harping on about it, Arsenal would've shown some interest in the past 5 or so seasons since we tried to sign him and he said he'd rather play for them.

That was comedy though, he turns us down, we win the treble

From what Ferguson was supposed to have said Heinze signing will put the emphasis on O'Shea to really step up and prove himself in one position as opposed to being more of a utility defender.

On a different note, Claudio (who I can see going back to Valencia now). Since they've already done it, here half-inched from football365, some of Ranieri's finest quotes

"If it is the case that you need just a first 11 and three or four more players, then why did Christopher Columbus sail to India to discover America?"

"Football managers are like a parachutist. At times it doesn't open. Here, it is an umbrella. You understand, Mary Poppins?"

"Damien is Damien. When I don't put him in the squad my mother, who's 84, asks 'why isn't Damien playing?' She kills me about it and that's true"

"My only technical adviser is my mother. When I told her that Damien had injured his shoulder again, she said 'oh no!' Who should replace him? I will call her before the game to ask."

"He's a crazy man" - Ranieri on Ranieri.

"They showed good stamina and good vitamins" - The Arsenal win explained.

"Before you kill me, you call me the 'dead man walking'. I must buy you an espresso. But only a little one - I am Scottish!"

"Two years ago I watched Carlton play for the reserves and I saw two animals in him - one was a rabbit and the other a lion. I want to see that lion come out in him more often" - Ranieri on Carlton Cole.

"He is my new little lion. And I like lions" - Ranieri on Hernan Crespo.

"He is like a shark, like Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink" - Ranieri on Mutu. But then...

"I once said Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink is like a shark and Carlton Cole like a lion. Well, Adrian Mutu is another born predator. In fact, Mutu is like a snake" - Ranieri changes his mind and completes his zoo.

"I am happy when our fans are happy, when our players are happy and our chairman is on the moon"

"One coach was training a player's hair, and another was training another part of his body"

"One beautiful day, a radiant day, Mr Abramovich introduced himself to me and said I should put a shopping list together"

"When I talk to the players I speak first of all in English, then I say 'sorry, now I will speak in Spanish, or Italian. Then on the touchline I speak another language so the other manager doesn't understand what I am saying!"

"When are you coming, Sven?" - Ranieri's words of greeting to Sven when the two met at Highbury last season.

"I can't change now. I'm like Frank Sinatra - I always do it my way. I told the players everything I did in the Monaco game was wrong. I changed things to win the match - but we lost and I was thinking "Oh f*** Claudio, why, why? Bad Tinkerman!"

"I think Veron is the best midfielder in the world"

I wonder who Crystal Palace are going to try and sign? I would like Palace to sign the sort of players Bolton have got but wages will always be a problem? It's always fun been a Palace supporter

I always thought Biscan was a good player, he would never join Palace after been at Liverpool and he probably wouldn't take a pay cut.

I think the main thing you'll need is a good solid defence and a decent keeper. IMO it was letting in sloppy/late goals that cost Wolves and Leicester this season.

Also someone who'll get you a decent number of goals. And a fair bit of luck.

Yeah another central defender would be good. Has anyone seen how crap Neil Shipperly is? I know he scored the goal that took us up but he's shit and the way he plays really pisses me off, anyone know a good striker Palace could sign? Cause the only player that comes to mind is Clinton Morrison.

Claudio Ranieri will finally be put out of his misery today when he is sacked by Chelsea.

Football365 can reveal that Ranieri has been summoned to Stamford Bridge, where he will finally be told his fate.

This follows two meetings last week with first Peter Kenyon in London and then Roman Abramovich in Milan when he expected to be sacked, only to be find himself talking about tactics.

But after Chelsea got assurances from Porto boss Jose Mourinho at the weekend, they are now free to dispense with Ranieri's services.

Mourinho will be officially unveiled as new Chelsea boss within the next 48 hours.

Ranieri is expected to walk away with an £8m pay-off - £6m for the remaining three years of his contract and an extra £2m to allegedly prevent him publicising details of his treatment at the club.

---------------------------

Well it's finally happened hope he gets another job soon.

Unlucky and very lucky Claudio Ranieri, I wish I had all that money.

Ok question for everyone:- Where do you think Claudio Ranieri's next job will be?

Spurs or a Serie A side, I don't think he will go to Spain. I would hate it if he went to Spurs and they beat us next season anyway, what with all the money we have spent and they are shit, but it would annoy me more if Ranieri was in charge, but I wouldn't blame him for going there.

I really hate Spurs and I don't know why, Ranieri could be the next Roma manager.
