Napoli FC want to buy Crystal Palace.

[Footsoldier]

On the way home I heard on Talk sport that Napoli want to buy Palace.

A few things that spring to mind on this take over are that is Napoli going to be sending a whole squad of loaness over and are they trying to do an Watford. How much would it cost Napoli to purchase Palace.

Is this Loan system still allowed or has the loophole been closed?

Complete bulls**t new account creator. Your cheeky little 'story' falls down from the off due to the fact that no one in Italy would have ever heard of Crystal Palace FC.

Aren't there new rules next season to prevent this sort of thing?

Pardon? I heard it on Talksport. Tune in and it'll be repeated on the hour, only passing on what I heard on the news.

And just like no one in Italy ever heard of little old Watford?

Not entirely true.
There have been strong rumours for the last few days that Napoli's owner want to buy a championship club, to do a similar thing to the Pozzo's at Udinese/Granada and Watford.

Fair few articles about.

Oh, and they appear to want ex Lazio boss Edy Reja to take over.

I just Googled it, and in the original posters defence, I found this from 17 hours ago on Yahoo sport. I tend to check things out before insulting people myself tbh.

I though the foreign loan loophole was closed now?

Thank you.

You're welcome. And welcome to NSC. we're (generally) a friendly bunch, but some people seem to think that EVERY new poster is a troll out to get bites. Wait and see first is usually a good option.

Isn't Napoli a complete dump full of unemployed scumbags trying to mug people
How apt.

Was entirely my thoughts too (when I heard it on TalkSport at the same time as the OP.............).

Horrible place, threatening atmosphere, rife with crime... And Napoli's not much better!!

How apt, how apt indeed

Just think, the subject of this story *could've* been us... horrifying thought.

I thought the Prem already had rules in place to prevent the foreign loan feeders

 

[Joe Gatting's Dad]

Anticipating Palace back in the Championship after next season and laying down long-term plans??!!

 

[Lord Bracknell]

I'm sure this is just another dimension to the Neapolitan custom of dealing with "troublemakers". Option one - you sleep with the fishes. Option two - you get sent to Croydon.

A perfit fit for Croydon

From BBC Sport website

Napoli chairman Aurelio De Laurentiis says he wants to buy an English club and install Edoardo Reja as manager in a similar arrangement to Udinese's relationship with Championship side Watford.

Looks like Holloway is out then.
