Crystal Palace administrator Brendan Guilfoyle has laughed off suggestions P Diddy is ready to buy the cash-strapped club even though he would be delighted to listen to the rap superstar’s offer.

Reports on Thursday claimed P Diddy, aka Puff Daddy and real name Sean Combs, was ready to rescue Palace while his publicity machine did little to dampen speculation the music and fashion mogul is keen to invest in English ‘soccer’.

But Guilfoyle insisted he has heard nothing from the Bad Boys Inc president although he left the the door open to an approach.

‘There is no truth in it whatsoever, I wish,’ said Guilfoyle. ‘I am a big hip-hop fan and I would be delighted if P Diddy wanted to buy Crystal Palace. I would welcome an approach and would willingly fly to New York to discuss purchase.’

I think BG smells the opportunity for an all expenses paid trip for him and Mrs BG to New York - perhaps just to make it a bit special they will come back on the Queen Mary II - he'll have to extend the deadline again though.

The desperately grasping at straws stage has arrived- what will happen is Diddly Squat.

I disagree, most big cities in europe in 2010 are multi cultural. Hip hop culture itself is more of a youth thing, irrespective of race now. You're just as likely to see a white, indian, black or whoever kid with their jeans down past their arse giving it the biggun. So when the term 'homey' is used it's more with a reference to hip hop culture than racial culture. It may well be different in the US, but when I think of 'homeys' they could well be any colour of the rainbow.

At least he could sort out our attack.

i reckon this could be payback from clowntown mugs for the email prank on the football league show....
