Award winning Creative Director, try hard rugby player, Palace Fan, ex Big Breakfast producer and once Head of the BBC Quiz Unit. Views are completely my own.
He’s obliterated what we thought was possible for Crystal Palace FC. I didn’t think he’d be able to get the players back on side after January but I was categorically wrong and hold my hands up up to that. He’s given us things we never thought we’d see.
I would be very, very happy with this. He did a genuinely impressive job at Lyon and has made history with Lens in just one year.
His career doesn’t feel like a flash in the pan either, he’s gone from being an amateur player to youth development to senior jobs and success.
Trophies lifted since 2025:
Crystal Palace - 🏆🏆🏆
Man City - 🏆🏆
Chelsea - 🏆🏆
Arsenal - 🏆
Aston Villa - 🏆

❤️💙 Crystal Palace had zero trophies in their history until beginning of 2025… now they have three.
🏆 FA Cup
🏆 Community Shield
🏆 Conference League
Insane job by coach Oliver Glasner and the club.
I FUCKING LOVE MY FOOTBALL CLUB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
not the point really but the creeping use of "could of" instead of "could have" in quasi-official social media statements is a shocking decline in popular literacy
Roy Keane on Jordan Henderson 6 years ago...
“I’ve heard people say they want him around the place - for what? Does he do card tricks? Does he have a sing song? Does he do quizzes in the evenings?”
We’re all thinking the same 😂😂😂
Adam Wharton would have offered England something unique. Instead, veteran Jordan Henderson and Kobbie Mainoo got the nod.
An absurd decision by Thomas Tuchel. #CPFC
