1. I didn't say that. 2. Hasn't Forlan just signed for another club and Suarez is a Liverpool's number 1 striker. 3. We have 6 strikers. 4. No we are not.

I'm just saying that knowing the manager and getting along with him, does not mean it's a done deal....oh and by the way, yes you are. The only way you could fund the signing of someone like McCormack is to sell. If he ends up at Palace (which I seriously doubt he will) it shows a real lack of ambition on the players part.

Yea fair enough. Most clubs sell players. Newcastle will sell one of their top players this summer and they came in the top 6 of the prem. We have sold Scannell, Clyne is going (tribunal) and we are due £1.5million+ when Moses moves (which he will do). So thats about £3.5million in players sales etc. Why would it show lack of ambition? Warnock doesn't want him at Leeds.

But they won't be after Winifred leaves to join the Russian Royals or Stains.

Because your stadium is falling to pieces and well outdated. You have about 8000 season ticket holders, you are a selling club and unless there is some serious cash injections into your club, mid table is the best you can hope for, for a long time to come.

Stadium is falling to pieces. Correct. Thats why want to build a new stadium. Correct we are a selling club. Spending money doesn't always get you places. Look at Leicester. Yes are season tickets sales will be around 10k.

Will Moses figure be as high as £1.5 million.....?

I certainly don't know for sure, but I thought his sell-on was 10% of the difference....? So if Chelsea pay £10 million , less the £4 million you have already received would be about £600k. A nice sum, but sadly due to huge outgoings these days in the Championship, it wouldn't have much impact.

Well you have just answered all your own questions....Stadiums take years to build, provided you can find a suitable site, get the permission and then have got someone to pay for it....As we know all to well.

Most Palace fans know that Williams will have to be sold the season after next to balance the books. That will be the season that Murray will show he can actually play some decent football as he will be looking for another 3 year deal.

The rumour is 20% of any profit.

The £10M is theoretical as Wigan might be induced to taking a cash plus player deal so it would all depend on the "valuation" of the player being swapped.

That's about right, people are very quick to forget Murray's first couple of season's with us. Still think he is a quality div 1 striker at best, average at this level and if he doesn't fancy it on the day, a waste of space.

£3.5 million? that's nexts seasons losses just about covered then. With your dwindling attendances, income dropping and a general overall malaise infecting your hopeless little club I really can't imagine why anyone would sign up for a relegation battle with you lot.
