It just wouldn't happen. You might well be right . Playing well in under 21 is one thing, but the PL totally different. But being a perpetual optimist, he might make it as a back up squad CB?

It would also explain why the club has stood by him , it was all just a matter of time .
And we still need a striker |

IF we had the money and IF we had a normal squad he may be worth a gamble. But we don’t have money to speculate and we have a squad which is getting on towards 50 per cent made of sick notes unable to play 2 games in a row or 20 games a season. Unless we have a major cull and ditch 10 to 12 players in the summer he is not worth retaining.

We could sign him to play in the Pete the Eagle costume. I doubt he'd last the season though.

Earlier in the thread someone mentioned that we are only paying him £5000 a week (of course thats still a nice wage for most people but in the realms of moneybags football at least its not outrageous) I would hope that we have reached an agreement that our commitment to him has been strong but until he is in a position to be considered for senior football (if ever) we have to be prudent on salary - Originally posted by BelfastEagle

I see the U21 are up against Everton on Monday night - the game will probably be shown on Palace TV so it will be interesting to see if Nathan is included & how he gets on.

I think Palace have been admirable by sticking with him. But even if fully fit now, I think having got him to that point it's time to wish him well and let him go in the summer. I seriously doubt he can cope with the intense requirements of the EPL.

Enjoying getting up later and not having someone who knows better than me (apart from the missus of course). |
