    Another good trick might be to recruit players with more between their ears in the first place?

    That would be good as well. Niang being the obvious brainless footballer

    'His main form of attack is counter attack – the Greeks even used to joke that his side were so eager to counter, they would often consider giving the ball to their opponents just to break on them.'

    Sounds like we are going to do just fine with Silva's tactics.

    Any fan base who sing this don't deserve to be listened to.



    They didn't even have their top tier opened up at the beginning of the season

    While I agree generally, it's probably true to say some of the world's greatest-ever footballers have had IQs lower than the average Luton fan

    We got lost on the way. I said to me mate "we took the wrong path miles ago". Mind you, at least under Silva the players will be permanently In Search Of Space...

    I was hoping the Quique song died a rapid death, however if there are some who still love it, Silvas middle name is Alexandre (Alex), with which Marco Alex Silva would fit the QSF song perfectly.

    Thank/Murder me later, after today's drinking if the latter.

    You are entitled to your opinion. It's wrong, but you are entitled to it.

    I do think Lemmy is responsible for about 50% of the tinnitus found in middle-aged men worldwide though. Including mine.

    Yes, the pace and running of Deeney is a perfect fit for such a game plan!

    It was supposed to be a tongue in cheek comment referring to our continual gifting of ball to the opposition.

    I got that - I was adding another tongue in cheek comment to further the ridiculousness...

    Sense of humour bypasses all around in this thread.

    Nah. For example, Messi will have a very high IQ, but it's all loaded into the parts of the brain that govern sporting ability. There are different ways of measuring intelligence.

    It's funny..,

    Reading all the posts from the pi**ed of Crystal Palace fans, any would think we stole mojo or something. TBH, I would rather be part of the Vicarage Revolution than being a so-called yo-yo club tag from the late 1990's who cannot decide if they want to be premiership club or a division one side.

    Yes last season we only just stayed up in the end, but we did stay up. I had worries about the coming season after the last one ended but with Silva on board now and the mood around the club is more positive which can only transfer across to the players and management.

    Silver Machine, Hawkwind? But goodness knows how you'd turn it into something useable.

    What about that rock classic from the early 70s with vocals by Lemmy before he formed motorhead?

    Don't remember the word something featuring in the song at all.

    How about Silva star by the 4 seasons from circa 1976? Or Silva lady by David soul from circa the same timeframe ?

    I put this in the next manager thread but seems like I should have put it here.

    I see the DM and other media outlets are now claiming that Silva was Palace's number 1 target and Palace only lost out on Silva because Parish was on holiday. Got to laugh at the media when we make them so mad they make up anything to try and put us down.

    Now with Parish's response I actually think the DM story might be true and Parish is just trying to save face. Let's be honest it's been 3 weeks since Allardyce left, if they had a number 1 target other than Silva, surely they would have gotten him by now. Considering every manager they are linked with isn't even at another club.

    I was quite pleased with my first interview.

    I let myself down a little bit on the second though. Having said that Ratty from Toad of Toad Hall,Valerie Singleton and Sunil Gavaskar all said the same thing.
