Just an FYI, Parish was on Talksports late last night. Said our transfer window business was not over...got the impression we'd like to bring in more than just one. But he implied that FFP came into the equation and we'd likely be moving some on to make room for incomings.

Sydenham by birth. Selhurst by the Grace of God.

I've looked at the rules surrounding FFP and they seem to be very complicated but assuming that it's both wages and amortisation that need to be controlled then Dwight Gayle is the player that could cut our costs most, especially if he is sold at a profit so perhaps our transfer activity depends on being able to move him on.

Jedinak is another who is probably a cost as being club captain will mean that he's on good wages and I guess that it's either him or Ledley that will go

I really don't get this FFP business. This 'simple' BBC guide to how it works seems to indicate that the only criterion is losses (i.e. clubs that make a defined loss can't just cover it by the owners putting more money in without suffering penalties). It has a clear aim of preventing overspending.

As Palace haven't been making large losses and have, in fact, made a profit recently it's difficult to see how we could fall foul of the regs, particularly compared to other big spenders.

Need a creative player to play in behind Wickham/Adebayor. Pretty certain that would only happen if we can get rid of one or two. Gayle looks the obvious one as there is interest for him, ideally Campbell would move on, that may end up being a loan. Also one of Jedi/Ledley to go, do we really need both?

The ups and downs of Palace have left me older than my years

Hope we don't sell Jedinak. Rather see Ledley go, not really sure what he offers anymore.

Ledley, Gayle and Campbell out. Diame and Remy in.

Let's not forget we only play with one upfront anyway so would have Adebayor, Remy, Wickham and Chamakh to choose from. Mo Diame would give us that Yaya Toure style drive through the middle, challenging Puncheon for a place (who needs a kick up the backside in my opinion!)
