Crystal Palace (H) 2/11: Build-Up & Match Thread

The new contract is probably a big factor. Yes there will be break clauses but they'll want to save face. He had 2 years remaining on his existing deal anyway so the extension was pointless.

My fear is that Hobbs is so obsessed with how "right" he got this appointment, he won't want to be seen as wrong and GON will continue to keep his job.

Time people started talking about Hobbs being at risk of losing his job. Apparently, he is responsible for our football, not just GON.

Just buying it in the summer or blowing it up before matches as well? Either way, yeah, sack him.

Pointless is being kind; it was a miscarriage of logic.

Even without the shit second half of the season, you don’t go extending after one year. Stupid.
