Having watched BFC for over 50 years, it's a nailed-on certainty that when a club or a striker is struggling, against which opponent do they turn their fortunes around?
De Boer met chairman after losing three and scoring none. Players don't like his tactics it seems so he is on a shaky nail. Probably our game will decide his future if he lasts that long
Talk of Fat Sam coming back has been hit on the head by Sam himself thank goodness.
Sam Allardyce has told talkSPORT he is not interested in a return to management with Crystal Palace – or any other Premier League club - right now.

A bid for Sakho may have succeeded. They may sell a few for FFP
Martin Kelly is attracting interest from Burnley

Yes I fear that too. I think deBoer won't win the players back and only worry they dump him before the game.
But We have a good record against them winning 17 drawing 17 and losing 9 in all games or
winning 2 drawing 1 and losing one in the PL.
My big worry about this game is that it's at home. While the pundits, in their usual misinformed way, continue to bang on about our away form, in the real world that's not a problem any more, we've only lost two of our last eight away. At home Fortress Turf Moor has crumbled to dust, and we've only won one of our last eight home games. Palace might have a few problems, but playing at Turf Moor shouldn't be one of them.
I have always viewed Palace as a little fish in a big pond, a bit like Burnley with the Liverpool and Manchester sides very close.
Steve Parish part owner and Chairman of Palace may have a lot of money and earned it well with his business ventures, but being in control of Crystal Palace Football Club he's doing very badly IMO.
Dyche doesnt believe in so called bogey teams/grounds. We had not won at Ipswich for how many years then we won under Dyche, hadnt won at Chelsea in the top flight since........if Burnley are on top of their game, we will win but I think Palace will score at the Turf.
De Boer is safe for now after crisis talks with chairman Steve Parish, and the club are preparing a later transfer spree.
Palace are confident Liverpool will accept a £25m plus add-ons bid for Mamadou Sakho, who excelled on loan at Selhurst Park last season. They are also pursuing Tottenhams Michel Vorm and Vincent Janssen.
Seems like deBoer has to win at the Turf or go. No pressure then!!

They only managed to sign Sakho
Sakho has not played since April and won't be fit for a while.

Interesting piece on de Boer and Palace in the Guardian, blames Palace for the problems.

Some papers suggest deBoer may be replaced by Dougie Freedman temporarily then Woy permanently.
