I used to believe this. However after the 2.5 Champion League add on I now think he's pinching

That is true - I was going by the supposed champions league add on but I guess you can't believe everything you hear in the press. It's almost impossible to tell these days.

Re SP Just remember guys this is the guy who loves our club and saved us in 2010. He is a true Palace fan and all you read are just rumours he knows what he's doing. He would be a genius to get it right all the time but thankfully for us he ain't done bad so far has he!!!!

No, it isn't, but there is a member of the ownership who thinks he has balls the size of cantaloupes and can't ever close a deal unless his massive ego is satisfied that he's done one over the other party. That inability to know when the dealing is done and it's time to pay or walk away will be fatal for us if we're not careful.

Because he is a fan isn't always a good thing Jordan is prime example of this.

Not everything is rumours a lot of the stuff like the contract will be from agents leaking details this is how a lot of the stories come out at times some are to get clients a move but when its detailed things like this it tends to be true.

I can see Parish being like a lot of high level business sales people they have ego and always trying to screw the other person this really doesn't work well in the football world if he wants to play games like this maybe he should just become an agent.

Networking is very important and by playing silly games and being to hard really isn't going to help you in the future this is why we clearly don't do well in transfer market.

To a certain extent yet we all see what happend to Goldberg if your Mr nice and a walkover. Plus all these guys will have massive ego's and will butt heads at some point, but will always work together if the deal suits both clubs.
The fact is Liverpool hold all the cards but you can't blame parish for the way his dealt with this. It's all easy saying Liverpool have gave us a figure either give them what they want or go elsewhere. If we wait it out and do end up paying what Liverpool want on transfer deadline day or thereabouts atleast it shows other clubs that we're no walkover and will only play by just their rules if we deem it an absolute necessity for the best for our club.

there is another possibility. ..

we were put off by Liverpool negotiation tactics so much so that we honestly gave up on Bent eke last month. Made Liverpool think we were coming back and still interested. wasted half a mill months bentekes wages just to piss them off and now be stuck only to loan the player out.

putting that clause in with full understanding it'll be rejected. all simply to say f*** you Liverpool...

So is starting the season with one fit forward.

As a fan, I won't feel disrespected or unfairly treated if the situation has been remedied when the window closes. I will always be grateful to SP & the consortium for saving and redeveloping our club. The turnaround in such a short space of time has been miraculous. I seriously worry that if this negativity persists he might decide to walk and I can't think of another pair of hands anywhere near as safe as his.
Look - he's trying to get some major deals done. For obvious reasons he can't share the details with us. The media are devious & mischievous, the agents are stirring things up, Your frustrated, I'm frustrated, we're all frustrated. But let's not kick the guy who helped to save our club in the teeth just to vent our wrath. There is still time, so please cut him some slack.

He's told you to grow up. The guy that thinks Steve Parish and Alan Pardew are currently scrolling through the threads looking for suggestions on who to buy. Hang your head.

No I didn't. I said earlier management use social media. That most certainly true.
Scroll down the Hol's Twitter feed and there is a certain Mr Browett tweet on our current situation.

I'm he never thought they'd accept the offer, more of negotiation tactic. Well I hope so. Like when Everton started by offering £18M before upping it.

Anyway personally hope that's the case and we're gonna go back with an improved offer.
