On a seperate note but linked to my original post I notice that Crystal Palace have announched a big investment in their academy, a positive thing. All this brought about by the EPPP introduction.

I think that if its in place you have to go along with it. The point is its caused a big injection of cash in to your academy and others which can only be a good thing for all involved. Academies in many clubs have been neglected now that cant happen. Surely thats positive?

Palace is as big,if not bigger as many Premiership clubs and think that if done rightly your academy will only benefit from the EPPP. Clubs can go one or two ways. Embrace it and invest or dont and risk being swallowed up. You are doing the right thing!

Hello Chelski.We had John Bostock "nicked" from us by Spuds(there are links to this on here,we've prob had more players nicked under administration). We've had a decent academy now for approx 10 or so years thanks to Simon Jordan and the £5M investment from a Palace fan should keep us going for another 5 years. Some points of The EEEP need ironing-out.EG: any clubs representatives/scouts can gate-crash any training session without prior notice; That we now have to give promising youngsters contracts at earlier ages than previously;in the best interest for future England internationals(yeah right!) There always has been a natural "pecking order" that filtered through the leagues,Chelsea buy Palace player,Palace buy Coventry player,Cov buy Gillingham(my real team LOL)Gills buy Br1ght0n .....So if the bigger clubs poach a Palace youngster for next to nothing then the "food chain" is virtually stopped. Please feel free to correct me if all blolokcs.Also blackmailing clubs into accepting The EEEP by giving "cash" and threatening to withdraw it to those who don't. Ollie's Dad,Ash.

chelski, I think you're turning into a closet Palace fan. Your first gloating posts made you look a bit of a billy big bollocks but now you've come over all reasonable I'm beginning to dislike you less. Stay for a bit longer and I might end up actually liking you

Personally if palace do go up I hope it's just for a season, nick the75 mill and get back in the championship, build for the future ala wba. After 45 Yeats watching palace I know where my best times have been.

Edited by OllieMaidstoneEagle (08 Mar 2013 6.31pm) You'll be pleased to know i read the EPPP document (yes i am that sad LOL) I can see how the clubs in the lower pecking order would feel although to be honest there has been a lot of big club buy small club players for years. My points were that I am not sure how many youth players have actually left Palace for say Chelsea or Arsenal etc in the last decade? Additionally, the main point I have in favour of the EPPP is that its forcing clubs to invest in their youth to achieve a cat 1 or 2 status. This can only benefit all clubs. I know you said Jordan invested money but when Palace went up to the prem where did all the money go?? It seems it went on buying players and paying their wages to try stay up? Or am i wrong?
