We need a striker and a defensive midfielder. These two players would do. If necessary, MORE than 17k would be made available.
You seem confused with regards to how much players are paid. We could pick up some great players for 6/7k a week (BWP's wage)
We were paying JV £10k a week. There is 17 grand MORE available than Burley spent! JV's wages weren't included in the 17k
I thought he answered as well as he could, considering he's restricted. They're always coming on though.
You misunderstood him, he said that Lee and DB were allowed to...
An awful criticism. Burley didn't spend the money he was given (17k per week!) and now he's gone. OBVIOUSLY a new manager would spend it.
If games ended in the 85th minute, we'd be 11th in the league. Terrible refs have cost us 6 points in recent weeks, and terrible mixups have cost us more...
We were docked points for being forced into admin. Jordan didn't take the easy way out, an aggressive creditor wanted to make sure they got 100% back within months.
Davids was playing well, until his dad died. Probably a valid excuse, eh?
We are still the better team. We will prove that next...
-10 points, losing your manager and not being paid tends to have a negative effect. We were 6th when docked points.
We have been incredibly unlucky this season, more so than i can remember in any previous seasons.
Have a look at the table in May, when we have signed a few players and got a new...
This bit is true. I don't think we will go down at all.
The vast majority of our team were playing when we were a decent top-6 side. Our squad is very young on the whole, 6 people in our first XI are under 21 years old. Our Chairmen are trying to build a "Palace for the future", and I hope it...
Burley was looking at Johnson, Bhasera and BWP from Plymouth. All 3 were said to be very interested.
Jordan Rhodes was apparently going to sign after we made an agreement with Huddersfield that we could approach him if they weren't in the top 2 by New Year.
We were looking at Le Fondre too...
Sorry? Ambrose MAYBE? He's one of the best midfielders in the Championship, he scores goals for fun when fit and has the best free-kick I've ever seen at Palace
Our league position is largely down to our manager using the wrong tactics, not signing a striker and not signing a defensive...
Football rumours is the biggest pile of sh*t, anyone can write anything on there. We were apparently going to sign Wayne Rooney on loan a few years ago, because he had a row with Ferguson. Complete crap, obviously.
It's good that you recognised that our squad is decent though, most Brighton fans are blinded to it, and believe yours is better!
You have a really, really good manager, but your squad would be poor in the Championship. We had a good Championship squad, and a really, really poor manager (though...
