Given the hype I imagine it is Toy Story. (Wilf is just not as rock'n'roll as I imagined)
So I manage a Workshop which provides a safe learning environment for blokes struggling with PTSD and other mental health issues. Being a Palace fan isn't listed yet. |

To be honest I don't trust DJ to give a fair assessment of Parish (which would be understandable). Regarding this hell bent hunger to be famous, if that was the case he wouldn't have rejected the Dragons Den gig offered to him. I agree though with Zaha, it's his career - he doesn't need to think about anyone but himself (nor should he). You only get one career. Too true, and when you want to move on so badly, you don't sign a lucrative five year contract. Play two more seasons and Wilf will be sold if his ambitions remain the same. He still has 3 or 4 years in him at the top level.

From the Ex-press:
Given the hype I imagine it is Toy Story. (Wilf is just not as rock'n'roll as I imagined) I don’t know why you only now find him uninteresting. He talks gibberish (in that ‘accent’), posts gibberish, posts his materials all the time, appears to not have many interests in the world and craves attention. If he wasn’t a Palace player or footballer and you knew him you probably wouldn’t be at all interested or impressed for that matter. On the pitch and at the club is a different matter. Top drawer apart from all the paddies on the pitch and on the floor.

Every man for himself, both Wilf and certainly Parish included. I think Wilf has a bit of CPFC in him but knowing the brother (DJ) of our former chairman I can assure you Parish is hell bent on a celebrity lifestyle now, he loves the camera and so do his kids on their social media pages. ! I can’t imagine anyone would take much notice of what the bitter brother of a former chairman thinks.

This post has been merged from a topic called 'The Wilfried Zaha Thread' by Midlands Eagle If Chelsea really want Zaha they can loan him from us as apparently they can still loan players. A loan fee of £79,999,999 with an option to purchase at the end of the season for £1

I agree though with Zaha, it's his career - he doesn't need to think about anyone but himself (nor should he). You only get one career. I can understand and respect your apprehension on DJ but please don’t shoot the messenger. One thing I can tell you is that both SJ and DJ blood isnt just red, it’s blue too. Whilst There’s no need to desecrate the final resting place of his tenure, we all know the story behind it and if it wasn’t for his unconditional love of the club and him being commercial rammed up the backside by SP, we would now be called AFC Crystal Palace plying our trade around tier 5-7 of the football pyramid. And whilst SJ had a Z lister or a girlfriend once, let’s not forget he was barely 40 years of age compared to our chairman who is less than a decade away from free public transport

I can’t imagine anyone would take much notice of what the bitter brother of a former chairman thinks. As I’ve just mentioned sometimes us fickle fans have very long ambitious but very short memories. Please, out of respect, Do not disrespect what Simon or Dom did for Palace. Without wanting to appear patronising, you may or may not remember it was the latter who holidayed with AJ (at his own expense) and convinced him to stay and sign a new deal following our relegation to the championship in May 05. The deal, similar to Wilf’s, was a five year contract to ensure that if we didn’t go up, Palace got the best possible price which we did. Again I appreciate a lot of the business side of matters were under the hood, and thus didn’t get aired But please believe me when I say those boys would’ve given a testicle each for Palace not to not go into administration in January 2010.

Arsenal tried to use that boyhood arsenal support to their advantage but it didn’t work with their bids not being high enough. Now it’s obvious Wilf has some w@nky people by his side, apart from salthouse, but Wilf won’t do anything against his ‘bro’s’ because he likes the boot licking going on. Hopefully we’ll have a sale lined up next summer or his pals who have about 5 mins experience shut up.

This post has been merged from a topic called 'The Wilfried Zaha Thread' by Midlands Eagle What is the use of accepting a useless striker and a sick note midfielder for our best player? Everton want rid because they the playrs are no good. 50 years of no ambition is enough for me.
