Twice in a season. Going for the hattrick?

Absolute shocker of a manager, some of our fans wanted him as an option for Spurs....

Rotated too much apparantly.

Palace gets rid of Vieira. Perfect time for a new/temporary manager bounce. Fingers crossed.

Were they getting worried he'd have the team bend over to help Arsenal?

Yeah plus they are mid table with no realistic prospect of going down. Strange one. This could work out well for Arsenal.
He was absolute trash in MLS, never understood how he got a PL job (even if he got decent result for a while with them)

Not a fan of Viera but that sacking is bad, you look at the squad he had to work with, Ward and Tomkins still in 2023, people say Conte punches above the squad, thats one man doing it this year.....misguided IMO
They have spent over £120m net since viera came in though. Now 3 points off relegation. Haven't had a single shot on goal in their last 2 games. Other teams at the bottom have been getting points recently. So it is a roll of the dice, right or wrong.

Its certainly a roll of the dice, I live in Palace territory and the fans were really behind him as far as I could see, bottom 4 on spend in the last 5 years which probably tells story for where they are now with the players they have. Their recent run has been horendous too, looking at who they played, you would arguably have them losing all those post W/C and they have points versus United, Saudi Sportswashing Machine and Liverpool

I assume @Grays_1890 was in the post you replied to actually speaking about Scott Parker.
Still...the sacking of Vieira does seem harsh given who they've been losing to in 2023....maybe he's fallen out with one or two behind the scenes?
@Grays_1890 which Palace territory do you live in? I assume Croydon/Sutton-ish?

I was in Croydon for 3 years and now living in Wallington mate, I drink in the Cherry Tree in Norwood Junction which is a Palace pub. You this neck of woods?
On the earlier post, both the MLS and Parker are poor managers so could be applied to either haha

Actually further north near Forest Hill. So in Palace territory myself. I have in previous years had the opportunity to share season tickets with some Palace fans who were fellow dads at my children's school. Turned it down, but i'd love to have gone to one of their games vs a big club: atmosphere sounds legendary (plus an easy journey home haha).
I hope Palace don't regret sacking him and that their players get their shooting boots on for Sunday..

An nice, popular area FH
We had season tickets at work when I was in Palace and did a stint as their coordinator when I did my job with the PL so spent loads of time in Beckenham at their training ground
