Quote Hambo at 21 Aug 2010 12.15am Still seriously pissed from the oval todday, so I will keep it brief. Having just watched the video on Palace player and hearing Davids talking about Wright and Bright and that the move came about from him being messaged on Twitter when we were in admin - and also George Burley's comments on the club, I could not be happier right now. Davids is a true modern day footballing icon and if he is even 50% of the player he was, he will still be the best player in this division. I am sure a fair few people will be at the game on Saturday who wouldn't have been - and that is fine. Some people need a prompt. I'm feeling very drunk indeed.

56 pages on this - bloody brilliant! All I can say is that I am still smiling. I don't actually care if he is any good or not any more - the whole Palace experience is making me smile. Nearly losing our beloved Club and now Davids and loads of other players signing is just such good fun. Yes - I want us to win but I just want to enjoy this season - as long as we stay up that is all that matters and I am sure that with Davids playing his part that we will all smile from now until next May. Thanks CPFC 2010 - this is just the icing on the cake!!!

Quote baldyegg at 20 Aug 2010 6.49pm Absolute joke,this guy is over the hill,was unwanted by everyone and we take him on,on god knows how much money?reminds me of juniuno (or whatever his name was at middlesbro) couple years back,as youngster was good but when he returned was a liability,this Davids will be the same,would rather have us looking at younger players with potential than this 37 yr old veteran,he will be easy to by pass and keeping much better players out..GUTTED !!! You really don't know what you're on about, do you? He's on very little money, on a pay as you play deal. He will doubtless make us money even if he doesn't play - you can see by the excitement that this will lead to bigger attendances and shirt sales. I think he will play though - he's about the same age as Giggs - its nowhere near unthinkable that he'll hold his own at this level. He won't have the pace he used to have, but his experience will mean he can sit in the middle, win the ball and play it simple - exactly what we need. As for keeping younger players out - who better for them to learn from and play alongside? Danns has already said he can't wait to train with him and watch everything he does to learn from him. Think again - this is a no-lose situation. The Three Twerps were one twerp short... again!
