The official "Dobbie to Palace" thread [merged]

[Simster]

Let's hope his last minute goal against Peterborough ends up being the difference between a play off place and seventh. At Palace's expense.

I dont feel bitter at all. Highest paid bloke aledgedly off the books.

Are we forgetting we just signed Ulloa?

 

[SIMMO SAYS]

I agree,same with Hoskins.Look how Spanish Dave started,very ordinary but has got better with a run in the team.Can't help thinking Dobbie is a good player and will probably come good for them.

If we had given Dobbie a 'run' in the team we would be fighting relegation now. For a football player to look so disinterested when he has played is a sign he never wanted to be here---just my opinion tho

 

[nwgull]

Dobbie is costing us in the region of 1m a year. Letting him go to anyone is better business than having such a highly paid player as 5th choice striker.

Alloa, Barnes, CMS and Hoskins aren't going to let him near the starting 11.

 

[Sheebo]

From what I've seen of Mr.Dobbie in a Brighton shirt, I'd FAR rather Palace spent their £15k a week on him, than on someone GOOD.

I agree. Good player I'm sure but not for us. The fact he's top earner says panic buy to me and glad to get rid. Even if he's gd for them (u know they'll tell us he's class regardless) he's been shite for us and hasn't worked out..

 

[Se20]

f*** me, you still here?

I have been known to visit here once in a while !

 

[TheMajor]

Everyone was expecting a striker to go - and it had to be either Dobbie or Hoskins IMO. If it is a loan then you would expect us to put in a clause concerning the March game - if not then so be it. I expect us to be above them by then.

I remember u predicting this!!!! Would be soooo funny..

 

[brightonrock]

Edit: Never mind.

 

[Sheebo]

What? You don't want to ignorantly slate CMS to suit your agenda? How odd. Dobbie didn't work hard enough, can ANYONE disagree? CMS will be a real player if played with Ulloa.

Spot on. Workrate is endearing to fans. The difference in effort between CMS and Dobbie is laughable...

 

[Surrey Phil]

Dobbie has undoubted class but Gus only wants team players not lazy bugger's who like to showboat. Should suit Palace perfectly

Dobbie to Palace and CMS stays. Oh.
This is like Kuszczak leaving and keeping Brez

Do behave

 

[brighton rock]

He's going to get shit loads of goals with Murray

 

[elbowpatches]

If it means we keep Hoskins, good. A far better player with a better attitude.

If Palace signed him from Swansea we wouldn't really be bothered and that has effectively what happened. Dobbie just had a 5 month break on the South Coast.

 

[Sheebo]

I can believe this, question is would we be willing to shoot ourselves in the foot twice by selling a striker with potential to Palace?

Really hope not, if we sell Dobbie I'd rather he went ANYWHERE else

Just remember we didn't sell the cheating **** to palace.. he was a free agent. Don't let the palace fans bullshit which isn't technically true win through

No mate he is

 

[nwgull]

He's going to get shit loads of goals with Murray

How many games since Murray last scored a goal that wasn't a penalty?

 

[PHCgull]

He's going to get loads of shit with Murray
