Criticised by many as a dinosaur manager at Stoke, I remember when he was let go, fans of every team (myself included) were screaming they'd never want him near their club.... Bloody hell I was wrong, Palace were dead and buried, I expected them to finish bottom of the league and he has performed a rather large miracle.
The football at Palace hasn't exactly been stone age football either, I wonder why he seemed so limited at Stoke?
