We have been badly organised since Pulis and that Arsenal game, this league is probably a little bit above us to survive in especially when we compare ourselves with Brighton who have a wonderful stadium and just players to worry about, when Murray comes to our ground and wins it for them I will fully understand how annoyed he must of been with the way we wasted money and time on attacking play while he sat on the bench, we waste far too much money for a club in our situation. We have a lot of trolls on this forum, and some of them are quite subtle. You are not one of the subtle ones.

So by trying to stay within FFP rules we are being run badly?

Agree with OP. We are in this position due to bad panic signings when previous managers and Parish spend loads on average championship players giving them large contracts to get them in .

Everyone wants us to sign players. Some will not work out and then we are stuck with them, because there are no guarantees in football. Then people blame SP because he signed them. Tell me, how is he able to win here? Players with prem experience fail as often as championship players succeed. You gamble to save money.

Our youth team is the best way of raising funds, like Southampton do. FDB will help us with that, we can either winge and moan about the immediate pain or take a punt with optimisum. I'd rather sell Macca Sako Chungy Mutch Damo than Andros though. Parrot

If we can only up our wage bill by £7m according to the rules, that means we can afford three players on £50k a week. What price range does that get us?

Parish is saying we need to sell to buy and hoping for 3 more players (very unlikely). Why have we not got any money from American investors, Chinese sponsors and £100+ million TV dosh? We have a thin squad with no PL quality goalie & one striker, and let alone needing PL quality in other positions, we have a manager whose footballing philosophy has produced one shot on target and no goals in 2 games and us plating up goals for opposing teams! As many of you will know supporting Palace is not and has never been a choice for me, my season ticket is a given. So can someone offer me something in my despair that Parish may have just murdered our season and PL status other than blind and delusional optimism? Parish is a past master at managing expectations,he constantly does the old cupboard is bare stuff and then up pops the cash for a Benteke or a PVA.Pay negotiations with him must be a very painful affair indeed. Believe all that you see and treat his comments with a healthy scepticism.
