Now it seems that the fee when he eventually goes will be a lot closer to £20m
To be closer to £20m than £2m, the fee would need to be greater than £11m? If we sold Zaha tomorrow we could get £11m with ease. Arsenal and Liverpool are reported to be starting the bidding in January with a £12m offer.

And we & i speak for the others here are pleased to have a strong leader too
if not a couple of minutes late 
I've been taking a far harder line recently but this generally relies on me actually seeing the trolling with my own eyes, and many days I spend very little time on the board itself. So, please use the report post feature - don't leave it to others - as I get an immediate email with a direct link to the bad post.

No, they didn't. They said they hoped that we would.
That was the original plan, but as you found out when trying to build your stadium, planning permission and NIMBYs make things a lot more complicated than they should be.
CPFC2010 will get a new stadium for Crystal Palace. It might take a while (although hopefully not as long as yours did) but it will happen, and we might be in the Premiership by the time it does
So he did say it then?
You might find where he said it here.
PICTURE the scene. It's 2015, Crystal Palace are taking on Manchester United in the Premier League and 40,000 fans are packed inside the Eagles new state of the art stadium, only recently reopened on the site of the club's original home. | This is Croydon

Are you actually able to read?
He didn't promise that we would have a new stadium by 2015. They said that they hoped to, but it was never said to be a certainty. They emphasized at the time that things could get a lot more complicated and take a lot more time.
We are being assured that Zaha won't be sold in January. Why on earth would we sell him? If someone wants to give us £20m then that's fine, but that's not going to happen until the summer at the earliest. Selling him could scupper our chances of automatic promotion. We'd be silly to risk that.

"I think if everything went to plan, it will take two, three years absolute minimum, but I think five years would be good, to be in there by 2015 is a realistic aim."Parish has been planning the move ever since he and his partners saved the club from administration in the summer. He knows the Eagles need a new home for the modern era and returning to the site where the club first played back in the early 1900s was always the logical choice
Well I read this bit.

Yes, we are. Not sure whether it's a redeveloped Selhurst or in Crystal Palace park though. I would prefer the first option. I love Selhurst and think it's a great home for our club, but it needs a revamp. We get to keep the history and the memories, but it gets to come into the 21st century.
So 2ish years since your owners took charge and no planning permission granted for either option?
It's not happening anytime in the next 10 years. Not like you need the capacity you've got now so you'll be just fine.

So was your planning application turned down or what happened to stop the plan?
