£100m take it all day long.

Doubt the deal will be there for January, so we’d likely have to let him go now.

I’d actually still take the money.

He wants to leave and this is to a massive team who are gonna pay way over the odds.

This will put us in a pickle on the pitch until January, but for an extra £20-30m don’t think we can say no.

Could have avoided this being such an issue if we’d recruited better during the summer. Embracing !

Or embarassing

If there is substance to this then I guess Zaha will not play in the next match?

Looking at the signings we have made in the past this could be much longer than January. Surely the best time for Wilf to leave would be at the end of the season and like his move to Man Ure sorted out a lot earlier ? Happily take £80 million to the likes of Chelski, possibly tapping a player/s from their bloated squad due to their loan policy.

Who knows if and what we’re due to lose since the last accounts were filed?

is that really how it works? The blokes come in, buy shares... invest and then want it back, all in space of what, 3 years?

More fool parish then... again

This just shows, yet again, what a one man team we are, if we all fear relegation if one player is out - imagine if he broke his leg on saturday, then what, relegation?

We absolutely need to get past this mentality which is why a lot of us were so annoyed at the fact awb money wasn't reinvested properly and that the scouts had nothing to show.

I would take the 100 mil, if true. He's worth 60 on the current market and any club selling him, besides us, would and should accept 70.

All this nonsense all summer on twitter with smug accounts saying, ohh i walk into greggs want a sausage roll but only have 40p so offer 40p blah blah, fact is we over priced him... and we didn't get a decent offer because of it and we didn't realign the squad to move forward or at least prep plan b.

You are talking nonsense.

Zaha is worth a minimum of one season's Premier League income. He has four years on his contract.

Why on earth would we want to almost guarantee relegation and sell him for half that money when we have no need to?

100 million would do us no good until January and you have just seen how willing we are to spend money in an inflated market.

They’re entitled to have it back. Parish hasn’t loaned money in, has he?

I don’t know if the Americans knew a Prem football club may require you to lose money before you sell it on, but what really grates on people more is the ringfenced and promised building of the new stand hasn’t budged for ages. It’s gone mute, and hey, all transfer activity shows they want to sell and therefore that’ll be at least partly why there’s no redevelopment.

I don't necessarily buy into that either. He's done sod all so far this season hasn't he...and we've achieved 4 points.

We are a worse team without him. Of course. But don't think we're dead cert relegation fodder.

that's my point, we are all but a one man team... what if he broke his leg, got injured etc, we would be doomed apparently. We should have looked at plan b and got it ready this summer.

fact is tho, without zaha we are worse, but with awb 50 mil and zaha 52 mil, that's a good 75-80 mil to spend on an awb and zaha replacement and then another attacking option, 25 mil on 3 players with 20 mil left over for jan or next year.

I fail to understand why we couldn't have done that, after 7 years in the prem... with all the scouts, dof, experience.. it shows we still fall short and don't know what we're doing or meant to do.

But sure, keep hold of zaha, have no plan b, don't get the best out of him, flog him in january, maybe have players lined up to replace him, maybe not... but cpfc is not just zaha fc and our place in the league should not be resting on one blokes shoulders.

It's my understanding that the shareholders have loaned funds to the club on a pari passu basis.

Some of Parish's investment looks to have been made by means of awarding himself bonuses that haven't been taken
