This whole transfer business can be hugely challenging,protracted,and fraught with difficulty and disappointment as bids are not accepted or one is in competition with other clubs.When one thinks one has 'Hooked' one's target, the 'Fish' gets off the hook much to the frustration of clubs and supporters alike.

In the meantime, the 'rumour mill' runs amok with outlandish and fanciful suggestions which bear no resemblance to the actualite.

If one comes on such sites and provides information in good faith from trusted sources and the transfer is not completed due to a plethora of reasons one is subjected to ordure and opprobrium with all the "In the know" brickbats hurled in one's direction.I have faced shot and shell on HOL on this matter resulting in some dastardly Willo threads and we have ALL had enough of them.


You’re right, Willo. The problem that I have with this is that it’s the same every window. Dazza is normally the only one who is pretty accurate on this but, if I were him, I wouldn’t post on the basis of info I get from the club, as it is the club, and not Dazza, that is starting to lack credibility, in my opinion.

For example, the club can make all the right noises yet I could predict we would have been linked with and looked at Eze, Watkins, the kid from Norwich, Fraser etc from the comfort of my sofa. Why? Because it’s scouting from Sky Sports. I sometimes find myself wondering how long a new pair of shoes lasts DF and our scouting team?

Evening all, no real update I am afraid I can only say just be patient their are things happening.

From what I am told & my personal opinion is that Eze will be a Palace player I won’t put a timeframe on as I can see if your wrong you get slated but it will be this window.

If I am wrong I will happily delete my profile in shame that’s how confident I am of the deal happening.

I have said all along there will be 3-4 new signings just have faith they will happen.

Dazza do you have any information on this bizarre situation involving Sorloth?

I have every sympathy for you Willo. You have been a long term supporter of the club for over 50 years, and you deserve RESPECT. You should not be subjected to cheap shots from people who should know better.

Transfers never used to be this painful at Palace. Pretty sure previous administrations got them through relatively quickly but this is just a drag./quote


Ian and Bob Dowie?

What, with Fawlty Towers and now this, you are in good form, Willo. Keep that tongue well in cheek (rather than in check).

I see it’s reported today that Parish is supposedly worth £45 million.
Surely this should be enough to fund the purchases of Eze and Watkins and perhaps some extra cladding for the stand?

If the £45M is true (and someone really comes in with an offer), then surely it would not be 45M upfront, but you would get them in 2-3 seasons.
Of those 45M a part goes to Man Utd, meaning we get £33M.

£33M would only buy one out of the two players.

Compare that with Tony Bloom's supposed worth - he's 10 times wealthier than Parish.

I'd love to be worth £45m, but in Premiership terms, he's a relative pauper !
