I'm pretty sure this is the problem with most of their 'big name' signings.

I felt so sorry for poor Adebayor. Such a distinguished career and then he is wrongly advised by his agent to sign for Palace; no wonder he put no effort in. What a come down.

Then there is Cabeye, you can't help but feel total anguish for the fellow as he thought he was signing for a Premier League team but ends up in a decrepit stadium that would struggle to grace a Sunday league. Then, to add insult to injury, he sees the ball sailing over him time and time again as Pardew plays dull, old fashioned, percentage hoof ball in search of set pieces and goals on the break. How they survived last season is still a huge shock.

Certainly not good enough for Brighton's first team, but I feel he would be good enough for Palace.
I do worry about his state of mind though if he does come, what a horrible time he will have playing in our slum. I mean apart from the premier league football and tens of thousands of pounds wages a week I'm not sure what we have to offer.
I'm sure he would much rather play in a nice stadium. One that is peaceful and tranquil, especially on match days. Not to mention the lure of championship football, seaon after season. Not sure how you would afford his wages though, but that's to be expected when you lose 1.5 million every month. Maybe Barber could charge for memembersp of dicks bar next, that could raise a few quid.

Tbh I'm still coming to terms that you didn't come up , the football world is in shock with that .

Still against modern football?

The Spurs move was almost a done-deal not so long ago...why have they cooled on him?

Always, unfortunately I have absolutely no control over it. I'm glad Brighton are sticking to their morals though and refusing to play in the premier league.

Not really, its what normally happens when a team is relegated. Footballers look after number 1 and to be honest should. No need to be precious about it

He's basically Defoe

This is true, Berahino and Defoe should both be playing for Big Clubs like Sheffield Wed or Leeds.

Most give it at least a week.

His attitude stopped him becoming a top player.

Or how about the time he was injured till Jan then handed in a transfer request because he wasn't playing?

He cannot be too far off a top player - 55 England caps and 19 goals and 15 goals in the premier league last year

Well at least one of the two clubs has to have morals.

Surely this is nearing completion as it was announced in 2010 and with all the money you now have the 40k capacity must has risen to house your huge imaginary fan base. With such a state of the art stadium top class players will be fighting to join your club.

I have no idea about when we will get a new/revamped stadium.

On another note I thought you would have offered to help Tonyout with his 1.5 million per month losses, as you are nsc's richest poster :tosser:

What does that have to do with this thread, apart from the fact you clearly have no clue so are resorting to deflecting questions and being abusive?

Think you are confusing him with Steve Foster, self proclaimed richest poster on NSC.

Quite a bit, the stadium does not really bother me all that much. Losing 1.5 million per month or charging to go into a bar and you ask us if we are still against modern football

Yeah? I don't think you'll find anyone here that's exactly signing and dancing about us losing money, especially considering our history. So yeah, I do ask you that question.

Which got me thinking. Haven't seen him post on here for a while - hope he's ok.
