Former FIFA president Sepp Blatter has bamboozled fans by sending a message to Roy Hodgson after he re-joined Crystal Palace as their new manager on Tuesday morning.
The Eagles announced that Hodgson would return to Selhurst Park until the end of the season following the sacking of Patrick Vieira last week. The Frenchman was dismissed after Palace had failed to win any of their last 12 matches.
In fact, Palace are the only Premier League club yet to win a game in 2023 and decided to sack Vieira on the eve of his return to former club Arsenal. Paddy McCarthy took charge of the Eagles for the trip to the Emirates Stadium as they were thrashed 4-1 to leave them three points above the relegation zone.
