No I think you have to pay him to reply ?
Sweet though to think that he will read my comments and if it spurs him on, then I could make it as football manager, thanks a new challenge for me.

Good result last night, glad as it now makes you think that you have a chance of staying up and getting all deluded again. See who is top at the moment. Think that Charlton, you and Weds will be the bottom 3. Watched a bit on Sky plus last night, looked a poor game with 2 poor sides, we were bloody awesome last night and should have scored 10, although I agree Weds were poor, we know now how you beat them. Our bench last night would all get in your team, that is how strong we are now.

To the guy who said all I do is abuse, abuse abuse, please show me where I have abused anyone. Also I did not report him for calling me a NancyBoy, another lie from a Palace fan, think you ask your mods why the threat was deleted.

Funny still no bets on who will finish higher this year, weird as you have the best team, player, fans etc etc, I will wait with baited breathe, or maybe not as at least it show you have some reality and know you are not in our class.

CMS has spent moreorless the entirety of his career outside of the Championship, there's a reason for that - he's not that good.

He is ok in our eyes thank you and premership bids back that. A £3m bid from Norwich. Wow.

Zaha is 19, spent the entirety of his career thus far, in the Championship, and in a year or so will be signed by a Premiership club and see out the remainder of his career as a Premiership and International player.

I agree he will be brought by someone like Wigan, Bolton or someone. In my view and a lot others and the stats back that up, he is not as good as you all think. Like Moses was bought by Wigan, have you seen where Victor is now? Nothing wrong with using a lower end premiership club as a 'stepping stone' whilst you adapt to the Premiership.

Ask any, and I mean any, Championship manager, player, fan or coach outside of Brighton who they'd rather have in their team, and 90% would give you the same answer.

Yeap agree, CMS, he is rated, Zaha has potential and if he stops all that silly diving he will get better and people will take him more serious. Did you see him last night ?. verdict was he was a bit out of his depth at that level, trys to be clever all the time and that is the opinion of a lot of your fans, not just me.

Funny thing is CMS can't even get in the Scotland team. He has 6 caps aged 28. For Scotland. That's embarrassing.

Four Four Two magazine had a poll for the '50 best football league players' which was voted for by Football League fans; Mackail-Smith was not voted in the top 50, Wilfried Zaha was voted 5th.

Yeah, opinions, like I have one as well and think I would rather have CMS that Zaha, sorry but it is true. CMS also does a load for the communuity and the kids. He even turned up at my mates boys birthday party and stayed and chatted to the kids for ages. All he was asked for was a 'Retweet' and he said he could do better and come round and guess what ?, he did not charge for that and stayed on his feet all the time.

Yes that's your opinion, but like I said, pretty much every football fan outside of Brighton disagrees. If he went to your mates' kids birthday he must be world class though.

On top of that, the ONLY Brighton player to feature was Liam Bridcutt, in 41st place.

Class Player, who you thought was not good enough, now looks at him, better than anyone you have in that postion, strange decision by your mananger, but you are used to that, maybe he gets the ball forward a bit too quick for his liking ?

So now the voters opinions count?

Palace had Nathaniel Clyne in 32nd (the highest voted right back in the FL)

Has he got any boots that he does not fall over in, after watching Saints the other week and and Buckley skinned him time and time again at Selhurst. But agree he looked a good player the other times I saw him

Speroni at 15th (the highest voted Goalkeeper in the FL)

Wow, wonderful, he looks crap this year though boys.

All about opinions, that is all. I really think and so does most of football think that Zaha is good, but not worth the amount of money you think, so why did not anyone match his Palace valuation ?, ask that one ?

I would take any bet that CMS will score more goals than Zaha this year and double that with we will have a player with more assists if you dont count penalties, although it looks like the Refs are wiseing up to him at last, see his foul and bookings this year are not that impressive.

Yes because CMS is a striker. He probably will score more goals because that his primary function, it is not Zaha's. There's a lot more to football than goal and assist counts.

Pm me with any bets and money goes to charity, come on put your money where your mouths are.

So I guess the rest of the FL fans do agree that:

A) CMS isn't really very good.
Nope, he is rated that is why clubs want him
Stop making it plural, it was Norwich. Aaron Wilbraham started for Norwich last year and he's our 4th choice

B) Zaha is in fact, very good.
he is good, not really good, long way to go

C) Zaha is the best young player in the Football League
Joke, then are loads better and more honest than him
[Link]

D) Nathaniel Clyne was the best right back in the Football League.

A good right back, being shown up a bit at premership at the moment and I bet he is glad he does not have to play up against Buckley every week ?

PFA Championship Team of the Year 2011/12, right back: Nathaniel Clyne.

E) Julian Speroni is the best goalkeeper in the football league.

Now you are joking, we have a much better keeper, so do quite a few more, again if you had all these great players last year, why were you so bad ? and struggled, the rest must have been real bad. Please tell me my little deluded Croydonians ?

I rest my case, no need to respond as you lot are just a bunch of losers who cant face the fact that we have over taken you as a club, and actually deep down I can understand your frustration and I do feel for you as you seem to be going the wrong way on your squad being depleted, no new ground on the horizon, a boring defensive manager, a board that promise loads but do not deliver.

I see someone asked what is a 50 plus man doing on here a few times a week and yes agree, I should not, but when I see some of your comments, they do really need replying too, but understand that you dont like the truth or differemt opinions, so I will leave you alone to have a great season, well think you will struggle quite a bit and hopefully we can have a chat at the end of the year and will settle our bets, of course, that if any of you want to have that bet ??

Bye

I have read all the comments and thanks, at least you have admitted that I do not give out abuse. I do actually take a bit, but if I post on a rivals site, then I should expect, as some of you guys do on NSC, not saying it is right though.

Also I have not reported a post for calling me a nancy boy, I did once report a comment, which was in very bad taste and it got removed (you know who you are).

I think the main reason for my replies on here are to try and give you a balanced view, nothing more. You say we deluded, and I am sure some are and even I do get carried away, but sometimes what is posted on here is lets say a good debate, eg the Zaha saga, I think he is a good player, yes, would we want him, no, that is a opinion, he is not out style of player, he trys to much and does not release the ball and as i get saying his stats are very poor for a player that you rate so highly. My mate who is Palace fan, was upset that you did not sell him as he feels he is overated as well. As I alwyas say we have 3 players who had better stats than him last year.

Anyway football is about opinions and that is the fact of the matter. I do not hate Palace, I hope you will stay up as I love the rivally. As for us, keep our main players fit think we are in for a good year. We were awesome on Friday, could have been 10.

So sorry if I upset you, I dont sit at home with pipe and slippers, I am a normal bloke, with wife and kids and a good job, just support a different football team to you, who actually are doing quite well at the moment, that is all and in my opinion have better players than Zaha, who score more, create more, that is all.

Thanks for the good reply as well. To answer your question, in my view Buckley and CMS do more for the team than Zaha does for Palace, I know their stats are better, but think they contribute to the overall play better than Zaha, Ok only seen him play a few times, but I do read on here and my mate think hs could do a lot better than he does. Oh and Vicente is the best player outside the premership, when fit, no debate, again his stats are very good, think 12 games, 3 goals, 9 assists, not bad, if only he was fit each week. Back for Saturday we hear.

I also know a League 1 club Performace Analyst, who told me some interesting facts, like the big clubs really look at these stats and that is why no real big club will pay that sort of money for him, as his stats are not that impressive.

Lucky last night to be honest, ugly win, although we had most of the good chances, Watford should have got a point. Heard a comment from a Forest fan on Talksport who said he thought Palace brought them down to their level, he seemed a bit upset to only get a point.

Gabbidon is a good player at this level, bit slow, but lot of experiance, so give you credit for a good signing.
