wish I could have your optimism, the current team, without investment will be the same position as last season! hope I'm wrong? Well, we had some great defensive additions in the January trqnsfer window: Millivosevic as defensive midfielder and two good leftsided defenders in Schlupp and Van aanholt. Howver we do need considerable strengthening in the CB area with the situationovef buying or replacing Sakho. On the positive side, Dann should be well recovered by the start of the season. And we do need RB cover for Ward. But defensively we are already a lot less frail than this time last year.

Just give Sammy Lee the job. Its beginning to look clear that the Yanks have reined in the purse strings because they want the first return on their investment. Sammy seems popular with the players and should be able to keep most happy. Signing Mamadou is now out of the question unless we can get the

When a new manager is announced soon, speculation will be replaced and this thread can return to the subject matter and NOT be de-railed by invective aimed at the likes of 'Yours truly'.This is to be welcomed.

As Alan Pardew famously said, the Americans don't know much about football and all Steve Parish has to do is to tell them the sorry saga of Birmingham's new owners and how they very nearly wrecked the club and therefore their investment by thinking that they knew more than they did

Well documented or well rumoured? There was a bit of a horror story in The Mirror this morning that the Americans want Dyche as he's used to managing on a shoe string. If it's true it's very worrying but there again is it true as I didn't think that The Mirror had a direct line to Harris and Blitzer Parish suggested it in the American radio interview. With the ceiling being 8th place. Palace only being 5 pts off Southampton in 8th. The extra/extreme investment is hardly worth. The potential 3 or 5 places in the table. Worth extra 6 to 8m if 8th placed is achieved. If your an investor. We may have to go with the likes of Hennessy, ward and puncheon for one more season.

With 8th place being the ceiling for our club. Even if we bought in 1 player and stay injury free. We'd stay up. Therefore our biggest money to us is the tv deal. Staying in the league achieves this. I love us to go on a spending spree. Take stoke for example after establishing yourself in the league. Little investment is needed to mantain it.
