Dougie Freedman

[MK Shrimper]

Has been made temporary "player"-manager after sacking of George Burley at Crystal Palarse.

 

[Rob Noxious]

Granty for Palace looking a stronger possibility perhaps?

Wasn't it inveitable he was off considering the morning scenario??

 

[ibwiajwa]

I think he will become a very good manager - good luck to him.

 

[West Stand Benfleet Blue]

Caretaker Managers tend not to stay when a new manager is appointed I hope I am wrong as he is dedicated to CP

Didn't he 'turn an ankle in training'? :unsure:

Pretty sure he's off, just wondered whether Palace might be more likely to be his destination now that Dougie is at the helm.

 

[Strykr]

fwiw i think any league 1/2 manager would be a fool not to put in an offer for granty, surely its a no brainer? especially as were mcskint.
sincerely hope nowone does tho!

Dougie has been named as Palace's new manager on a two and a half year deal. Well done Dougie :clap:

 

[Tampa Blue]

some people are born to manage - and I think Dougie is one of them - congratulations to him and good luck!!

 

[The Big Shrimp]

I hope Dougie does well, but not at Palarce!

 

[Drucey]

congrats to dougie, definitely manager material and maybe a job at southend one day!?

Ha!He might be interested in Grant.I can't see who else.

Ha!He might be interested in Grant.I can't see who else.

The clue was in the word "rising" - during his recuperation he spent a lot of time with the yoofies, and I have a feeling he'll know about the likes of Kane Ferdinand and Teddy Nesbitt.

Sounds like one of those 'name of first pet, mother's maiden name' porn star hybrids. :stunned:

Don't tell me Grant is now a falling star.:unsure:

 

[TravellingBlue]

Absolutely deligthed for Dougie, had the pleasure of his company on one or two occasions, and he was a very knowledgeable and engaging chap.

Congrats to Dougie, Palace turning over Man Ure on their own turf. Must have picked up some hints when he was here :smile:

If you get a chance check out Darren Ambrose's opener, an absolutely blistering strike.
