Time to start doing Business Steve..!!

[Teddy Eagle]

Surely there is room for Dani Olmo and Rodri in there? Surprised you’ve over looked Mo Salah as well

Would need Will Hughes' approval since he'd still be the first name on the team sheet.

 

[Hrolf The Ganger]

Ok, what would YOU do, who would YOU sign & how much would YOU spend, seeing as it's not your money?

I'd put in a cheekly loan bid for Isak if Newcastle can't sort it out.

We should have an extensive scouting network who provide a list of options. Signing players is always a gamble and I would suggest that we had better get it right this time because we now no longer have any flair in the team at all with Olise, Zaha and now Eze departing. It has not been that way for a long time.

Our survival in the Premier League has depended on it.

Not worth buying at 33 years old, one season away from horse meat.

Reuniting with Klopp, eh?

Fair. Explains why we’ve not moved for him. Ready made Eze replacement otherwise

 

[pssguy]

Pulis was a snake. He lost court case and had to pay club over £2m in compensation. He should never be our reference point as a manager

He may have had his faults, but it's undeniable that he did an amazing job keeping us up after Holloway quit. If we had gone down, we might never have come back as I very much doubt Zaha would have rejoined us in the Championship

Ummm sign some players thanks for asking 👍

According to Ed Aarons we’ve spent the least amount of any club in Europe’s top five leagues. I know money is quite tight but considering the dire financial position of some clubs in Ligue 1 for example, I think it tells the story. I didn’t expect us to spend lots this summer but given we had very clear needs (CB cover, attacking cover) nobody can tell me that is anything other than either dreadful planning or incompetence in the transfer market.

For that to be true of a team that have just won their first ever trophy and just qualified for their first ever European campaign is utterly farcical.

That is pretty staggering if true.
With Parish’s excellent track record with the club I think fans would cut him some slack if he provided a broad overview of why this is the case.

I’m not talking financial chapter and verse, just an overview.

What has happened between Glasner being promised early deals and where we are now with a very frustrated manager?
I don’t think the Europa league demotion in itself is the sole reason.

Our policy when it works is young ,gifted and amenable to playing for us.

This. I can’t believe that in the whole transfer market there are no players at affordable prices who can play in the Conference League, early rounds of the Cups be used as backups in the PL or even step further up. With the reported transfer funds of Eze some European clubs buy a whole starting 11.

I agree he did great job keeping us up. My point being is he had his own agenda and not a great example given what happened afterwards

 

[Jim_Cannon]

Have you noticed a pattern here with managers that do good job excluding Roy they all have walked.

All of them it appears to be lack of ambition.

I have said it for years SP is holding us back he is a nation level businessman not a global and his whole rants about multi club to me shows he's out of touch.




Who cares how about all the clubs which have been successful.

What do you class as new that role has been around for decades because Palace are slow at putting things like this in place doesn't mean it's meaningless.

A chairman does not do that role or skilled enough to do it just take a look at the clubs which did allow chair persons etc to do it West Ham for example.

While SP stays in his role we will continue to be like this he's not a good businessman and wont gamble.

CLubs that pump money in have gains many are doing this in stadium upgrade/ new builds and spend 100m+ every season sooner or later we will suffer I believe it was Stoke who was the same solid for long time but kept playing it safe.

Stoke gambled with how they wanted to play and failed

 

[dreamwaverider]

Big problem now is we appear to be chasing players who everyone has had a good look at. When Dougie was DoF he kept unearthing the unexpected.
As a result, the likes of Dibling and Kanhosous are on the market at top dollar.

 

[dreamwaverider]

Sadly, we seem to have hit a big disconnect internally.

 

[Jim_Cannon]

Rubbish that guy saved us and I believe had he been backed would have stayed on.

People like to point out things like this yet they forget SP underhanded tactics to take over the club to begin with (If SJ stories was lies SP would have taken legal action to have it removed from his book plus silence him about it)

Pulis lied and lost and had to pay a large sum of money. Thanks to him for keeping us up as I agree looked like a lost cause but he was all about money. West brom fans I know don’t think highly of him

SJ had his own agenda and always doomed to fail because he never bought the ground. SP may have his faults but his record as chairman far exceeds any other in our history

Tony Pulis v Crystal Palace (CPFC Limited)

On 10 March 2016, a Premier League Managers’ Arbitration Tribunal gave an award in favour of Crystal Palace Football Club, in a claim brought by the Club against its former manager, Mr Tony Pulis, relating to his sudden departure from the Club in August 2014, and the events leading up to that...

No they didn't they did like Palace wouldn't put proper investment into the squad the owner kept coming out with like SP using the past for reference to not need to improve.

Pullis court stuff is meaningless the guy stopped us from going down and had we gone down SP own words we would have been in trouble fiance wise again which is why he had to allow 2 of the current share holdings onboard he was desperate.

Every manager and player has an agenda.

SJ has more wealth then SP (SP has gained his wealth from Palace before hand this is why he required the other 3 with him) did you know that and the ground stuff he got 3rd party to purchase with intent on when he had funds to take it back but remember the banking crisis.

 

[waterfordpal]

I’d rather they spent that 45m on Harvey Elliott than Dibling. I can’t see us spending that kind of money but I predict a flurry of activity this time next week if we progress in Europe.

Unbelievable- we were 24hrs from liquidation.
