Because of Boxing Day
Last gasp from Liverpool's glory days, they have never recovered from losing the FA cup semi-final 4-3 later that season!
Apart from one solitary Champion's League win, but we beat them straight after that anyway.

i dont make a big thing of them either, but relevant here as it has a bearing on revenue. your attendance compared to the rest of the league is in the bottom half, which means income is probably in the lower half too. many clubs are straped for cash (or rather leaking it alot), i dont know why COYP should argue you aren't. any club in this division could do with £6-7m.

I'm pretty sure it was me that was saying we're making losses, just like I said you were making losses beorhthelm. All I said was we are not so desperate that we need to sell before the end of the season. You make it sound like we're about to pop out of business next week unless we sell Zaha this minute.

So he was one of your plastics then, he had a second team and that happened to be you. Bless.
Yes he was a neutral. Was in the Family Stand. Thoroughly unpleasant bloke. Just like the racist plastic who was sitting in your hosp area a few weeks back.

Rubbish.
Do you have any evidence at all to back that post up?
How on earth do YOU know what "the true picture" is?

Based on that kind of logic should I be assuming you're looking to sell the ground to someone else for development and spend the next 20 years in obscurity or are you just trying to be 'banterous'?

as i have said so many times before, its not rocket science if you know where to look, are you really that stupid you cant see from your gates that A = Income and B = Outgoings are so far apart that you are losing money dramatically. Your crowds might be increasing slightly but with the group on deals you do which is a high percentage of your gate, you dont actually bring in much cash. The club is only going one way into the red and quick, why was the new ground shelved, why has no improvement work been carried out to smellhurst? why no players signed..................

lighting does not strike twice...well in your case it does, but with us we fianlly have a fan as a chairman who is also a very good businessman.
Palace will be losing a considerable sum of money, but that is not unique in the Championship, nor in English football.
They are fortunate in that they have a highly salable asset in Zaha who can be readily turned into cash any time (subject to transfer windows).
I believe they both want and need to sell him in order to help offset aforementioned losses because, to their credit, the CPFC board want to try and avoid the mistakes that have blighted CPFC in the past.
Sensible stuff aside, I wish someone would just buy the diving little shit so we can put these threads to bed.

Haven't you heard about their world class academy? Producing a constant stream of world class players? This is a never-ending story

Yes and we have four fans as owners, all of whom have built up substantial business empires through their own hard work. Steve Parish through an advertising company, Martin Long through an insurance company, Steve Browett through a wine merchants and Jeremy Hoskin through hedge fund management. The new ground was shelved for the same reason previous attempts to move to Crystal Palace Park have been shelved - NIMBY residents. You may wish to look up their desire to see the place turn into a wasteland here: CPCA // Crystal Palace Community Association
The board has said that redevelopment work will begin in the close season.

To my knowledge, the ground will be redeveloped in partnership with Sainsburies, including sale of the executive carpark etc, and with corporate sponsorship and naming rights. Though I do have a horrible feeling we'll end up playing at Sainsburies Park
Crystal Palace will stay at Selhurst Park, co-chairman hints | This is Croydon
From 3 months back...

If that really is the only lifeline for your club, you'd better learn to spell their name properly.

To be fair, it would fit with goal music, call and response with the announcer, and a half time bird show.
