Spiderman Horsham 20 Aug 20 10.39am
Originally posted by PatrickA I see it’s reported today that Parish is supposedly worth £45 million. Surely this should be enough to fund the purchases of Eze and Watkins and perhaps some extra cladding for the stand? I wouldn’t expect an owner to spend all his money funding players, in fact I am not sure this is allowed under ffp. He is a pauper in PL terms but Harris and Blitzer most certainly are not.

Originally posted by Helmet46 Looks like the ITK’s are performing to their usual standards. Transfers never used to be this painful at Palace. Pretty sure previous administrations got them through relatively quickly but this is just a drag. Every window it’s the same. A series of ridiculously long posts from Matteo (this is NOT meant disrespectfully), listing out every player we could (and in some cases should) go after from Venezuela to Thailand, a couple of top targets listed listed from a ‘we’re definitely in for them but I can’t reveal my sources’ itk individual or two and then? Atleast he'll be cheap. Bang!!! Sweet fanny Adams until the last day of the window, when we panic buy a 47 year old plasterer from St Helens who once played for Bolton and we remember his name as he scored a screamer in a 1985 `FA Cup qualifier against Margate Town. Can someone, somewhere, tell me what positive influence DF is having? Personally, I’d never have let him back within 100 miles of our club. Edited by Helmet46 (20 Aug 2020 7.06am)

Usually I’m more than frustrated with our inability to go early, especially as Roy takes forever to bring players into the squad, and we lose ground early. This year I think it’s a good tactic, there are a lot of bloated squads that with the drop in income need to unload. As the window goes on financial reality will bite and a buying club like ours can make hay. Daniel Sturridge come on down!

I'm not sure why you are holding Hodgson to account for not getting players in - that's not his job. And I don't know why you consider us to be a '' buying '' club any more or less than anybody else. Very few deals getting done at our level and in our case that means selling as well as buying. Old, Ungifted and White

Painter Croydon 20 Aug 20 1.51pm
Dyche was on Talksport earlier talking about Burnley in the transfer market. They are often the first one to show interest in a player, then first to leave the queue, as silly bids start coming in.. He said they often did their business late in the window, when prices and availability is more clear. It all sounded very familiar, so those who knock our policy, it isn’t different from clubs like Burnley, who basically are on our financial level.
