Hobbs out

[Aray]

How many windows has he had now? It’s littered with poor quality purchases. We were left scrambling for defensive players when we should have targets lined up.

Definitely! The man was at wolves as sporting director for (I believe ) 3 years now look at where wolves are now!! He doesn’t have a clue. Where did Larsen come from!

 

[Spiderman]

I agree but who employed him and why? Parish is not blameless, was Hobbs a cheap easy option! I suspect so. Sangatte should have been our #1 signing in the summer, beaten to him by f***ing Brentford, probably all for a couple of million

Let the Holmesdale democracy do the scouting. We could set up a poll to run in November of who to buy and send the club the Top 5 list on 1st December (info@cpfc.com). Easy

There is no player called Sangatte at Brentford are you Hobbs assistant, as your knowledge of players is similar?

He is referring to Mamadou Sangare signed by Brentford for £41 Mill from Sage's previous club Lens.

Too many cooks...?

I doubt it. Recruitment team could be twice that at big clubs

I'm not sure where player recruitment sits with this group of data gatherers.

The canteen staff always seem to lie low after a few bad results. Isn't it time they were called out for not supplying enough energy food ?

I remember in the January window people commenting on here that Spurs supporters were really keen to sell Johnson. On Sky Sports the presenter Mike Wedderburn playing devils advocate against the presenters who provide transfer updates....'Strand Larsen' Mike said 'he's only scored 3 goals all season...how can he be worth £47m' ? These are the views of the ordinary man so to speak. History tells us again and again that if players do not perform at a high level at another PL Club, they are extremely unlikely to do so when they join Palace. Yet the so called experts believe they know differently.
