Gone to Plymouth permanently. Always thought he looked good when he played, good luck to him.

The clear out continues, Must be about 6-7 players in the last week. How many more.
Thought Parsons had a future at the club, So much for bringing the youngsters through, All goes out the window in the Premier League as the stakes are to high to take a gamble.

Bit of a shame.

I guess the only positive thing about being in dire straits is that you have to put your faith in young players. Parsons needs 100 league games over the next few years, which we can't give him.

 


It was my dream to play for Palace and to make my debut. I've always played for the club so if I'm playing here, I wouldn't want to be anywhere else.

I agree to a point, the reality is that the majority of our youngsters past and present, whilst good, are not great and a long way from Premier League standard.

Good luck to him

 


the dignified don't even enter in the game

we don't want to become one of those premier league sides that holds onto a bunch of youngsters, stalling their progress and ruining their careers.

i'd take much more enjoyment seeing academy prospects building a career in the lower leagues than wasting away with us

If he had been good enough he would have been played. Didnt really get a sniff in the Championship either. Think it speaks volumes that he has gone to a League 2 club. I do wish him luck though, and hopefully we'll get a bit of wedge if he progresses and gets sold on.

He is 22 now, so can't play in the Premiership unless included in our 25 man squad, which I don't think anyone on here would advocate. Good move for him to a good club, hopefully he will have a successful career.

22 and never had a run of games in the first team, He'll return at league 1 or championship standard in a few seasons.

Not going to have a chance here, Parr or Moxey won't be prized away and Jerome Williams looks a promising player coming through.

All the best. Rated him, but he never really managed to break through, even when we were struggling for a left back.

To a certain extent it does go a little out of the window when in The Premiership - there is just no chance to bring the players through unless the players were exceptional. Had we gone up 5 years ago, our Premiership team probably would've been filled with a Clyne, a Zaha, a Moses and a Williams. We still have those kind of players like KaiKai who will breakthrough though. Parsons is good but not good enough to break through into a Premiership team. Jerome Williams is also in the mix at the moment with Parr & Moxey.

Good signing for Plymouth.

We can't give hime games and he is technically not a youth player anymore being 21/22. I would of thought we would have had a high % on both him and Banton, and to of let them go cheaply.

You have to be of Joniesta or Zaha standard at that age to get near our squad.
