Crystal Palace set to battle Premier League rivals for Brighton star

If he goes in January.its because the club want to sell him,and they have a replacement (better ? ) lined up . TB said at the forum ,they would only sell those they wanted to.We are all thinking players like Manu......maybe just maybe DS......as well.

I have no idea how long you have been a fan BG or how old you are, and I know you get berated quite often. However I am on your ride and I think we will go up this season.

Thank you I am 73 years old and been a supporter since my grandad sat me in the South Stand of The Goldstone for either my 2nd or 3rd birthday. mum wasn't exactly sure which one. As regards getting promoted I am very optimistic for this season but think that if we miss out again CH/TB may decide the squad isn't good enough to make the step up required and go again with major changes for next season.

Have you checked to see if there was a game on either your 2nd or 3rd birthday?

That was apparently my treat so probably wouldn't have been on the 5th October either 1945 or 1946 but the nearest Saturday with a home game. Isnt that how it works for birthday treats?

palace are at home to Man City, this Saturday.
While Hull play Blunderland and West Ham travel to Spurs.

They ought to be teetering on the brink of a relegation place this time next week.

"I enjoy playing for this football club , i enjoy playing for the manager, and i'll be fully committed through to the end of the season. There's no question about that".

His eye's look LEFT (recollection) with the playing for the club bit and the manager bit-

His eye's look RIGHT (creation) when talking about the future bit....

Body language.......that said the future is unknown so i would on this occasion not say he is lying,however he had to make that bit up...naturally of course.

It's paper talk , not at the level we'd require .

Well played sir, beautifully done.

Would he have done you in your first season up,can he play higher is what i am asking.

 

[Dougie]

Probably , but I'm comparing him to our existing midfielders and I don't think he would improve it . IMO , I think he will stay if you come up .

Which will now probably lead us onto that other thread-top 20 wages.....£37k/week average ouch.

That's the problem . Tony needs the extra income to start paying back something but most , if not all of it , will go in acquiring players and their higher wages . It's ok saying you get £100 m per season but that gets swallowed up , it's frightening really .

It is and very so,besides £100M is in old "Palace" money,were we to go up,the new "Albion" currency is £160M

 

[Biscuit]

Now we know Palace are paying £37,800 a week on mercenaries I can't help think this will be a done deal, regardless on whether we're promoted or not,
