You would imagine Glasner’s body of work would also have been a point of consideration for Parish in recent weeks.
The Austrian is widely recognised as the team’s greatest ever manager having led Palace to last season’s historic FA Cup victory – their first ever major trophy – the Community Shield triumph over Liverpool in August and the club’s first ever foray in European football.
Things behind the scenes are not perfect and while Glasner’s public outbursts are not ideal, there is a recognition that in the 49-year-old they still have an accomplished coach that has led the club to arguably the greatest period in its history.
That counts for something.
There is also an understanding that Glasner can be emotional and, on occasion, those emotions can spill over.
With that all said, relations between the club and Glasner are described as positive and certainly not as unfavourable as some would assume given the public comments made by the manager.
More recently, Palace have sensed a greater zeal in Glasner amid a sense that the manager is focused on bringing the curtain down on his reign with further glory.
So, for now, Palace will continue with Glasner at the helm. Unless there is a significant change in the course of events in the coming weeks, the expectation is that Glasner will see out his contract before riding off into the sunset.
