Interested to know what Ed002 thinks of our New Manager and backroom staff. Did the club seek the right person to give the most professional advice? Or was it just a desperation move? Moshiri couldn't get either of his Portugese guys, so did we opt for the Steve Walsh choice? Thanks in advance.

{Ed002's Note - The club did not take advice although there was someone who shared some views with Moshiri. SA and CS was routed in what Steve Walsh suggested and it is a positive move in that SA will work from a maangement perspective first of all and will look to get the players on side or they will be moved on - and SW can deal with the logistics of moving them on whilst also working with SA with a view to bringing in players to help the cause. Craig Shakespeare knows both SA and SW well and will work on coaching the players with Sammy Lee assisting. Obviously Lee spent much of his career at Liverpool but since Dalglish sacked him (before getting himself sacked over the Suarez affair) I don't know what his thoughts are about Liverpool. I know that a few folks have kicked up a fuss about Lee because he wears Super Stevie G brand pajamas to bed each night, but the fans should give him a break and let him get on with his job. This is not the person Moshiri wanted but I suspect Kenwright gave his support. The initial task is clear as you know, and I see no reason why SA cannot achieve that. After that it is a different matter.}

Well said ed, SA is a good choice for where we are and what was available.

no one seen how made up Sammy lee was when palace beat Liverpool, he is a dedicated coach and if he is as good as everyone says then we got a good catch.

How funny will it be if we beat Liverpool in the fa cup final with SL jumping round in celebration hahaha.

Marvellous insight ed. Thanks. I am firmly sitting on the fence regards Sam. I'll support him and hope he does well because the club will be doing well. I worry that a lot of the fans will not have a lot of patience if we continue to struggle.

{Ed002's Note - man, I hope it works out. But through the holidays it would be neat to see the fans stant true behind him.}
