wouldn't want to be tainted with that kind of money - no thanks.

nope and nope.

being what

Zaha has some green grass in front of him here. Finds Ambrose
not a bad effort ooooooooooh! what a goal by Darren Ambrose absolutely stunning strike!!! And, Crystal Palace lead @ Old Trafford.

Being what?

If Palace went the way of Chelsea or Mank city, what would be so different when going down to watch Palace? well nothing would have been earned by the efforts and good intentions of the club we know. If we could just buy it in, where would be the satisfaction? Now if those plastics at QPR, Watford etc are happy with this, great. Not for me though, nor , I suspect, the many Palace fans who have followed the club too long, to allow it to be taken over by a bunch of business men who only see a plum cherry to pluck for profit for a short time. In a few years time when Palace are still that rather poor, but football based company in a scruffy London suburb, what will have become of those empty shells, now bereft of a sustainable income because nobody sees it as their club?
Those who misguidedly believe Palace can have the money on offer and do it their way....no, it's never going to happen. Whoever heard of an investor handing over the money but having no further interest.
