we have appointed Crystal palaces 3rd worst manager in the last 30 yrs?

Who is, statistically speaking, better than our last manager in the last 3 years. I think.

Doudie Freedman - Crystal Palace
36% win rate at 1.37 pt/game

Owen Coyle - Bolton only
33% Win Rate & 1.19 Pt/Game

Smegson - Bolton only
28% Win Rate & 1.09 Pt/Game

Sam Allardyce - Bolton only
41% Win Rate & 1.52 Pt/Game

Again these will include cup games so the Points per Game is not based on league matches only but 3 points for every win and 1 for a draw for their Bolton/Palace matches. This gives a better statistic than win rate.

Ipswich have now been linked with Dougie Freedman, apparently

Megson – what a tossbag! :laugh:

With our squad, facilities, and backroom; the impending return of Holden; his personal development as a manager; and some investment from Eddie, I don't see why Dougie can't be up there with Big Sam.

Marc Iles has just tweeted that the Ipswich rumour is nonsense.

Dont sign just yet Dougie, who needs a struggling promotion favourite when you could manage the team at the very bottom!

Lot's of interweb gossip saying that Freedman to Bolton is still not definite. Confusing to say the least. Someone trying to unsettle us?? I bet it's bloody Coyle!! :lol:

It's all down to the assistants from Palace. A deal needs to be struck to get them in. Compensation will need to be agreed and I suspect this is the delay.

I can understand Palace fans being upset at Freedman but not sure what we have done wrong to deserve any bad karma? It was the same with Burnley fans. In both cases we made an offer that the club accepted and the manager decided he wanted to talk to us. Whats wrong with that? :conf:
