For avoidance of doubt, I was not suggesting any such fabrication, I was merely offering the possibility that he was trying to be informative using information from media outlets. Edited by Willo (03 Sep 2022 9.34am) Noted, but it would have been rather less disingenuous if he had said, “I read today”, or I saw in the…” , or even “my mate who makes the tea at the training ground spoke to the kit manager who’s sister is dating one of the players” you get my drift. You either have a source within the club or you do not. As he has already said he is not in the know, I fail to see the relevance of any of his posts other than as an agglomeration of media posts. If that is what he is doing then fine, but the tone of the posts gives the impression that the information is first hand and not from twitter or news now, which we can all read and make our minds up as to it’s voracity.

Regarding Dazza I believe he follows Carl on Twitter, who has over 14,000 followers, he posted this on August the 29th. For those who are wondering, we’d be willing to buy Gallagher, AWB & Sarr for the right price. Some ambition at our club. According to the BBS Carl is as about reliable as Gazprom.

Really? My understanding was the exact opposite and that he was one of the few trusties I guess it depends on you POV. He seems to be as diverse as Dazza is on here. As I am not on social media I have to rely on others to repost.

Nixon seems to think we may go for Gallagher in January depending on his situation at Chelsea, also more scouting to be done with Semenyo. Apparently Dougie watched him yesterday. It is claimed we didn’t bid due to him recovering from injury. Maybe we have learned a lesson but you watch Forest or West Ham get him

You won't buy Galagher for £20m. Everton and Newcastle will both pay more - even if he has a poor run at Chelsea. Could have made a bid for Semenyo this window, but he is injured. Our scouting network needs to do better. We have not unearthed a decent striker of our own since Swindlehurst and Wrighty :-) Clinton Morrison wasn't too bad.

Kind of reinforces the point. Clinton went to Birmingham as a make weight for Andy Johnson in 2002. Nothing turned up in the 20 years since.

Not a striker as such, but our best ever academy player, if not best player, this is the reason why we now have an academy that, if you are the parent of a kid who has talent, then Palace with the assurance that you are likely to get to the first team quicker than Chelsea, is the place you will send your child. Let's see in 5 years time wheather this is working, I think it will, our academy is amazing now. Edited by sotac464 (04 Sep 2022 6.31pm)

yes they will both pay more, but isnt it the players choice where he goes? Originally posted by Gribbo
