    25/26 January Transfer Window

    I don't disagree. But my point of Stoke using the scattergun approach and wasting hundreds of millions just to finish in the bottom half of the table most of the time is similar to the Birmingham approach. Buy good players at an inflated prices but never a team. Spending up to 10m per player in...

    Yes they can afford to do a 'Stoke' and waste a few hundred million trying to get promotion. But until they come up with a proper plan they will always be up against Prem money and sides like ours that keep improving slowly. Signing a new team every season stops continuity which is very important.

    An important milestone !

    Not only that but what was also quoted was just 2 seasons after winning the FA cup. Palace are the FA cup holders 😂

    Our Weakest Position

    I wouldn't consider people raging at the results as being happy. As you say some were moaning when we were winning nearly every game. And yes the gap is smaller. I would be worried if there was no visible reason for it. Nearly everyone said they would be very happy if we were near the top...

    Our Weakest Position

    I think our weakest position is 1st in the Championship table. It sends more people into meltdown than when struggling in League 2.

    Not a bad day altogether. It was obvious what Esse can do but Minny also had a decent 1st game. Neither looked out.of place with the way we play. Esse looks like he will slot straight in and be an asset from the start. A totally makeshift side against a strong Stoke side was still a close...

    Esse has already said he is playing so it wouldn't surprise me if both play. Not only would it give a couple of players a rest but we would get an idea how up to speed they are. Esse is going to run them ragged. It's going to be fun to watch.

    Do we want to win? 🤔 If we do we put Esse in the side. If we want to lose we give him an extra week of settling in.

    It will change as soon as he is on the pitch. We have got ourselves a right cheat code. He is going to love our style of play. 20 games to go. Wouldn't surprise me if he finishes close to being our top scorer. He didn't come across as boastful or bigheaded. He will fit in well. A few days with...

    Premiership football

    Watching games like these should get people excited about Esse. Good enough to play at Prem level. He needs the minutes at his age but is used to games that are fast. His replacement is their 35m record signing Brennan Johnson. If he can pull a Prem defence apart he should enjoy himself against...

    Transfer Rumour Callum Wilson

    Jefferson Airplane were a band that broke up I would guess late 60's. Jefferson Starship was a group made up with members from Jefferson Airplane. Can't remember exact details.

    Transfer Rumour Romain Esse

    Esse would have been on the bench for last seasons FA cup win. He would have got a winners medal. Does that count? 🤔

    When will we see our first January signing?

    Lati missed pre season because of his injury. After being out all season he came straight into the side and played well. He is a very capable player at this level. We don't need a player who was Sunderland's weak link at the back. He wouldn't bring us anything we need.

    A playoff winning side that were lucky to win the playoffs. Fair play if you think he's good enough for us. Who has mentioned spending big? I said I'm happy with loans as long as they improve us. O'Nien doesn't improve us in any way other than taking up a place in our squad.

    In your opinion. Lati is more of a reliable player. Lati is a reserve. We want players comparable to our 1st team and not comparable with one of our reserves.

    Esse is easily good enough. He brings speed and trickery. Spoke to a Palace mate. Says he loves to dribble with the ball and is a good player. My mate is comparing him to Prem players. Just what we need. YMK is highly regarded by his parent club, again a Prem side. Will play an important part...
