Is there a history of Malaria being used as a racist insult? I'm not saying it isn't, I simply don't understand it. Malaria is a problem around the world, and it doesn't discriminate. Weird.

And obviously I condemn all racism.

I admire you more for saying that you are weird.

Having thought about this.

I wonder if, in fact ,those young men are Medical doctors or microbiologists who have just looked at Wilfs bloods and discovered the Malaria bug.

Perhaps they are then looking at ways to deliver the bad news in a lighthearted way to help Zaha get over the devastating news?

If that’s the case then they aren’t dickheads, they’re compassionate professionals.

At least we can all agree on here that "it's time Wilfried Zaha went to a big club...he's not going to win anything at Palace."

Ah! There’s the rub, he went to a big club and couldn’t make the grade. He knows he’s better being a big fish in a small turgid pond then getting found out again when playing with the big boys...

This line is trotted out all the time, he failed at United, so he’ll fail at any big club.
Wilf is one of the most exciting players in the PL, and he’s proved this season with his assists and goals , that his all round game is improving, whilst having a severe case of maleria.
If he keeps improving, he could be better than Will Buckley .

Totally this. Yes it's wrong and details must be forwarded to the authorities however the thought that rival fans are trawling the web to point score is just cheap.

Wouldn't it be lovely to discuss football on a football forum, hey now that's an idea I've just stumbled on!


Hang on.....I think you might have just had a Eureka moment.
I think this forum should be renamed ' Palace/Brexit Chat ' These two topics seem to dominate every waking moment of a number of posters on here, who clearly, haven't got enough going on in their lives.
For those of us in the minority and with a modicum of intelligence and experience, ' the Palace thing ' lingers like a bad smell. Artificially created and perpetuated by those over the years, who craved a rivalry to focus their angst and now imbedded in the mindset of many as the be all and end all of our existence. This forum is now the vehicle for petty, trivial and banal point scoring. No class, no dignity. Just pure, unadulterated ugliness, which sadly, is what many on here are looking for.
It is the one element that stains my undying support of BHA. It brings out the worst in people. The matches are dreaded. There is no proper banter. Its just downright ugly and malicious. An atmosphere of dislike and fear and too many are more than happy to keep that going.

It’s a pity his stats are not as good as Pascal Gross and Buckley stats were also better, thus Poyet’s comment. He is a good player but not as good as you guys think.

He didn't fail to get caught by Moyes smokin' the bone with his 17 year old daughter...I have to say allegedly, although it hurts.

Career threatening move whilst being a house guest of your boss.

He certainly an exciting player. I think I heard a pundit say the best asset of Zaha was he was capable of moving the ball up the pitch quickly which helps the team. He can still improve on some aspects like his finishing. Make no mistake though there are players out there as good as Zaha on what they do.

Oh behave. It's Stoke. They still point at aeroplanes there fella.

Their slogan should be "moving boldly into the 1970s"]

I think the main point here is the word allegedly.
Moyes didn’t sign him, and I think he didn’t rate him.
I’m sure they now regret not persevering with him .

Corrected for you :)
