The squad we have will keep us up, the ambition at crystal palace under our owners as things stand is to stay up.


Until the next billionaire owner wants to buy a stable London based premier league club and decides to pick palace we’re not going to be spending money like everyone around us. If we was in the bottom 3 I think we would possibly spend the minimal but judging on our last few windows it’s probably a good thing there’s no cheque book coming out this January.

IMO it’s important to Look at the financial trouble at the clubs that have been relegated from the prem and not achieved back to back promotions before questioning the lack of big money transfers. Parish might be ‘tight’ but he is a business man and has the clubs best interests at heart. Money doesn’t go far in football these days.

We will be safe as houses come end of the season always are.

Emiliano Sala

Sala's tally of 12 league goals puts him in third place in the French scoring charts

So not really a Sorloth

So after all these years in the top flight, all that TV money, a cup final, our ambition remains to 'stay up,' so to finish 17th?

Time to want a little more than below average I think.

Steve Parish even told us to have more ambition. But now expects us to forget that.

Be careful what you wish for, you don't want to be the next Charlton

We spent between £26m to £30m on a striker (never quite sure what the true amount was), so "yah boo sucks" to Cardiff

 

Palace since 19 August 1972. Palace 1 (Tony Taylor) Liverpool 1 (Emlyn Hughes)
