I don't think that's correct. I think we have in general paid better wages than Palace over the last couple of seasons. The reason that we have lost (sold) our better players is simple: there is much more demand from the mega-rich clubs for players that have contributed to finishing in the top 6 than there are for players from a team that finishes 12th-14th every year.I think they still pay inflated wages to certain individuals, whereas we probably pay a more realistic rate, across the squad. I'd imagine the gap between or highest paid and lowest paid is closer than Palace's?
On that basis Olise and Eze will be at Selhurst next season - poor souls.I don't think that's correct. I think we have in general paid better wages than Palace over the last couple of seasons.

Olise has spent most of this season and a large chunk of last season injured so whoever wants to buy him it may putOn that basis Olise and Eze will be at Selhurst next season - poor souls.
Surely the release clause determines what he goes for and not your valuation?Olise has spent most of this season and a large chunk of last season injured so whoever wants to buy him it may put
off until he has a good few matches under his belt ?
Eze on his day is a lovely player unfortunately his days are every 3rd match and to use a cricket saying he is a bit of a flat track bully, I can really see him going as only a club similar would want him ?
With the spending being dialled back I can’t think who would pay the money we would want.
Of course that’s me hoping a bit
Not according to the stats in post #7820I don't think that's correct. I think we have in general paid better wages than Palace over the last couple of seasons.

what release clause is this? How much is it?Surely the release clause determines what he goes for and not your valuation?
I'm not going to hold my breathI’d like to wish the planning permission for the redevelopment of Selhurst Park a very happy birthday tomorrow.
6 years since it was granted, and not one brick laid.
Apparently though, there is funding in place now.(150million).
So, we should see the Amex tribute act in about 2-3 years.
Maybe.
So fancy new main stand - Surely they'll look at the stand opposite after?I'm not going to hold my breath
But it will not be an Amex tribute act. We're not moving to the edge of town, but staying in the heart of our community.
All good things come to those who wait

Right, because our failing was a lack of patience. If only we'd given it a further 14 years!I'm not going to hold my breath

To be fair to them, there are only so many ways one can design a football stand, but...Nothing to do with location and everything to do with it's an exact copy of the Amex West Stand. They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, or it would be if it ever got built.

I don't think THEORETICAL rain, through a hole in an IMAGINARY roof, can get you wet, tbf.To be fair to them, there are only so many ways one can design a football stand, but...
Won't that big hole in the roof make everyone MOIST when it rains...?
Very confident the stand will start in the close season, my sources are normally pretty accurate
Surely it’s there to let all the smoke out from the all the pyro the devoted ultras will be allowed/encouraged to let off pre-match to maintain the famous atmosphere ?To be fair to them, there are only so many ways one can design a football stand, but...
