A club has to want to buy them and pay their high wages of course.

I have some sympathy with the poster who mentioned it may not do any harm to go back to the Championship for a while.
We all seem to have been caught up in the Sky//Best league in the world/Moneybags hype that is the Premier League.
The fun of watching Palace (at least at home) has largely gone under Hodgson.
It was great fun watching the old third division team under Allison, the emergence of the play off winning team under Coppell and the play off winning team under Jedinak.
None of these were in the Premier League.
Last night I went to Charlton v Forest largely to check on the progress of old Palace boys Williams and Bostock.
They both played very well in substitute roles and it was a joy to go a reasonably priced game without the hype, VAR, and to see young players whom I had never heard of impress with talent and energy.
No Carragher, Neville or Shearer telling me what I should think.
Of course I will continue to go to Palace but it will be much harder for any young player to break into the first team in the Premier League and if one does emerge(like AWB) they will probably sold pretty quickly because of the high profile nature of the Premier League.
When we went up this time in the first couple of years we were very happy just to survive but 6 or 7 years on that does not seem much of an aspiration .
That is human nature with an increase in expectations year on year.
Last season I was terrified about going down and worried that we’d have to sell AWB and Zaha if that happened.
Well we’ve sold AWB anyway and Zaha still wants out.
We have become a stale club under a stale manager and that certainly isn’t ‘the Palace way.’

If Benteke is our striker next season then I’m not going.

there's nothing wrong with taking a break from being a season ticket holder, or SP regular. Rather than keeping on attending to the point of misery, resentment and bitterness, which happens to some fans.

Have a break, do something else at the weekend, come back in a few years if you fancy it. Your support of Palace will be much healthier for it.

May I respectfully suggest that he is quite entitled to give vent to his feelings on this forum just as many others have done and it's actually your whining without saying anything constructive that we could do without

No not missing the card . and to be honest with you i did deserve it! Should never post while under the influence . yea i know what you mean if i was nearer i would but a season ticket but im in the asshole of nowhere in Tipperary im not gonna move now . you know what they say , " happy wife happy life " but by the time i take diesel , flights , car hire food, a few pints membership and tickets it up to 4 ton . my iptv only costs 30 per 3 months so i can watch every palace match from the comfort of my recliner ! and kick the dog when we lose !( poor f***er is getting used to it now and going for a walk when the footie comes on) I enjoyed going to the Brighton matches up to last season because of the hatred i have for them . Didnt enjoy it the last couple of matches i went to , we lost without any fight .

oh yeah ,fcuk off brighton.
