erm

we are in serious s*it, today ive finally bed wetted .....

we sold the best rated defender in all top 5 leagues in europe for BIG MONEY, and not replaced.......

we have signed NO BODY....... ayew was already here hardly a new signing plus that goalie????

zaha, our secret weapon who hands down keeps us up year upon year hasn't kicked a ball for us since Bournemouth the final day of last season, bearing in mind our season starts in less than 6 days. Not only that, but he seems he wants out to a bigger club which he deserves. If by miracle he does stay, how will we know hes committed?

our pre-season has been an embarrassment.... couldn't beat Luzern in 90 mins, Wolloped by young boys, Wolloped by Barnet, beat by forest, beat by Bromley, TOO RIGHT we deserve a result with Bristol, couldn't beat Wimbledon..... HAMMERED by Berlin who our rivals west ham put FIVE past only a couple of days ago........

We have bought sweet F.A regarding transfers to improve and progress the squad, even if we do in the next couple of days, they have zero time to gel as a team... we are still 3 to 4 (£100 million at the very least) VERY good signings away from being better than last season

we were promised development would start as we speak to the main stand to bigger the stadium to 340000...... well that was a lie and parish new it!!!!! instead we have a new roof which has been leaking for donkeys in the hol (tight ar$e took his time) and a new dug out area......... woopeeeeee .....

Our strikers are Benteke, Sorloth and Ayew...... i would have more faith in our 1st season back in the Prem keeping us up in Glenn Murray, Dwight Gayle, Cam jerome and chamakh scoring more goals between them than what we have now.....

i know we are in our record 7th prem season but i cant see ANY good factor or positives going into it......season starts next week and if today was the best team we could put out and will probably be the team that starts everton... thats a bloody worry

i fear for our safety ....... BIG TIME i would be more optimistic being a sheffield united fan staying up right now


SORT IT OUT STEVE PARISH!!!!!


RANT OVER

p.s please feel free to abuse me for being depressing if we beat everton and sheffield united... i would LOVE IT

Benteke, Wickham and Ayew. Sorloth has gone to a team in Turkey.

Nothing unreasonable about any of that.

Are there 3 worse teams then us?

I'm not sure there will be.

so we finished midtable last season, and have lost one player from that squad, we have a more than able experienced PL full back to replace him should we not sign a replacement.

we have had a bid accepted for a 25 y/o midfielder who looked decent last season at cardiff

we are bidding for a 21 y/o russian striker
we are bidding for a 17 y/o scottish winger
we are bidding for a 19 y/o chelsea full back

we are trying to purchase younger players to supplement an ageing squad...this shows a transfer strategy.

we have trimmed approx 150k a week from the wage bill

im sure you weren't a fan when we got promoted but we are embarking on our 7th seasons in the PL.

we arguably have the best squad in the history of our beloved football club

we hands down have the best player ever to play for our club in the squad

we arguably have the best ever CB ever in our squad

our old s*** stadium is sold out almost every single game

we have a chaiman who actually supports the club & gives a s***, and wont bankrupt the club just to appease dickhead fans who just want to see we signed somebody on the skysports ticker

we have a manager, who is fantastic, experienced, humble who i can not fathom anybody disliking.

i hope that is enough positives for you, i could go on, however it would be wasted.

i have said this every year since promotion & i stand by the fact i would rather no signings at all rather than signings just for the sake of signings to appease dickhead fans without a clue...feel i am in the minority tho.

Sorry, but were you in a coma for the summer of 2016?

Good old Brauny all good then. I've probably supported Palace well before you, so know Johnny New Bollocks here. You've obviously stated a few things I actually agree with, but there is a fair amount of sentimental old bollocks in your post as well. You simply cannot go into a season (after season) hoping to roll a six on the dice every year.
Now obviously I'm not privvy to what goes on behind closed doors (nor are you come to that) but purely from an outsider looking in it feels & looks like things are being poorly handled.
One thing you try & do is when you sell you're biggest Asset AWB is to have a replacement in you're sights.
And in my humble opinion you get you're signings in early so they have time to acclimatise..

Yep here's hoping B.E. but I'm not sure why we do this every year. It would be nice for some of our new signings to have one or two pre season games under their belt. Rather than be expected to hit the ground running in the Carabao Cup !!

Sorry but not signing a RB is unacceptable and that very thing at left back etc is partly how we’ve got into the messes we have, which snowball into more messes, causing the problem to prolong.

Ward is not an able full back to play a full season at this level. He and we’ll get torn to shreds, and we’re relying on PVA to regain form in the other full back position as it is. I agree Ward is good as a stand in and can certainly manage the situation until a new right back settles in, just as Ward did fine for a month at the end of last season, but once teams know how to work him they’ll be licking their lips in all of the 19 pre-match Prem team video meeting rooms.

I would say we should be okay to start the season with the players we have before the new signings I’ve always believed will be coming this week or next week it looks to be now. But we don’t have Batshuayi who was part of our good finish last season, there’s not much sign of confidence on the pitch at the moment and oh, Wilf is likely to miss 1-3 matches as well.

Even though the transfer window closes before the season starts, we’ll do our best to throw away the first 3-5 games again I expect.

so your building your views on roy not on the brilliant job he has done as palace manager but from his time as england manager.

maybe you could kick him in the head to show your displeasure, im sure thats not beyond you.

totally agree with this slow starters would be nice to start well for a change and get enough points before Christmas to than not have to make up enough ground in the 2nd part of the season
and finish in the top half of the table

but is it sentimental bollocks, or is it reality?

i remember not to long ago 13k attendances at selhurst, or 2010 offering out £10 groupon tickets (i brought a fair few, haha)

i remember our “star player” being ben watson or shefki kuqi.

thats not sentimental bollocks its progression.
