Not really a big fan of any of them, but I went for E, A and C.

Tbh I'd be really disappointed if we ended up with any of the other 3!

Bolton are the first club to make a move for Zaha.

Link

Some sources say the offer is in the region of £5million.

Steve Parish has confirmed that discussions were a verbal offer which he uses an analogy of trying to buy a £30milllion house for £1million.

Well, Bolton have returned with a £7million offer.

To which Steve Parish has said... "The only reason we would accept is if we were desperate for money. They can't - in their wildest dreams - think it constitutes a reasonable or fair offer. I can categorically tell you that there are no bids from Bolton that will be in any way of interest to us; it is a complete non story. They are nowhere near the value of the player. Hope that clears things up....

Good stuff, I think to sell our one creative player in January would be crazy. It's not like Clyne where his transfer value will disappear in the summer.

Still not over last week, but ready for the big one tonight now!

What a chance to bring the positivity back. Either that or take us down to new levels of despondency.

i'm a bit surprised that we aren't listening to offers for Clyne considering what can happen in the Summer.

Huddersfield made a £750k bid for Sean Scannell. i had to laugh, we turn down £7million for Zaha and yet they think they can get Scannell for a tenth of that!

looking forward to tonight. a good way to forget about last week by doing the double over our big rivals. the ground should be buzzing and if that doesn't lift the lads after last week's disappointment, nothing will!

If they had thrown in Jordan Rhodes then they may have had a chance!

We have signed striker Kwesi Appiah. Link.

EDIT: And we've signed 17 year-old defender, Michael Chambers, on a two-and-a-half-year deal from Dulwich Hamlet.

final score - palace 1 brighton 1


another draw at home, we are drawing far too many of them... same old story really, not enough of a cutting edge in the final third... sometimes it feels like we don't even want to shoot...

Should have held on to that. One stupid, bloody mistake.

Annoyed that we couldn't see the game out at 1-0, but can't complain too much. At least we've taken 4 points off of them this season. Hopefully, we'll get all 6 next season!

Today is the last day of voting for our new club crest. I wonder which one will win it?!

in all honesty you couldn't argue with the result against Brighton, a draw was probably fair. i would like us to be a bit more positive at home from a tactical point of view but i can understand why Dougie & Lennie set things up more not to lose. after the past 2 seasons we've had, finishing this season with mid-table stability would be a big success and something to build on for next.

Can't see us getting anything at Boro Saturday , seen to have hit a real slump in form , have not scored more that one goal in a league game since the middle of October, & the goals we actually score at the moment seem to come from the penalty spot . On the plus side defence has looked solid , just the problem of scoring goals needs to be sorted out .

I'm sure I read on the BBS that the vote was really just to gauge opinions and the final decision will be made by Steve Parish.

Isn't he supposed to be a big fan of option B? Not that I mind B too much, but would prefer E.


Not holding out too much hope of getting anything in tomorrow's game. I'd take a point right now if I'm honest.

A very good point on Saturday - we are still proving to be difficult to beat. And at least this time we created plenty of chances, just the same old story in front of goal, though. What I'd give to have an Ian Wright, Chris Armstrong or Andy Johnson in their prime playing up front for us right now! We'd be flying!

Snow overnight but it wasn't very frosty. Although they are predicting a heavy overnight frost tonight. I wouldn't be surprised if it does get called off. Fingers crossed it doesn't, though.

so disappointed the game is off. another good reason to get ourselves in to a new stadium - at least then we might have a pitch with under-soil heating. very frustrating.

It's a shame, more so because we finally have a run of home games played at 3 o'clock on a Saturday.

On the bright side, Norwood Junction trains would have been disrupted anyway due to engineering.
