Better Newcastle than palace. I think I've read uncle say he'd never go to palace in a million years because of his affiliation to cafc but that was a year or two ago. Was getting worried
He wouldn't give 2 shits about charlton if palace came a calling, why would he? Get real. He's suited to palace style of play and if he liked pardew then he's re-united with him...living back in London area close to family and probably on a nice increased contract and at a more secure club with more sexy ambition and general threat.
No brainer from his perspective IMO.
Realistically I very much doubt any emotion from being an ex addick at a young age would make any difference here. I might be wrong.

Agreed, I can understand players not directly moving to a rival (though Glen Murray did that when he moved from Brighton to Palace), but several years later I can't it being a consideration
Apart from anything else, two our best left backs of recent years, Chris Powell and Rhoys Wiggins are both products of the Palace academy/youth scheme...
We have enough problems without worrying whether a former player moves to palace. Jo jo has a young family now and it would make a lot sense being closer to his immediate family.
Increasingly clear he isn't going to fulfil his potential - only 23 years old and already moved on by two Prem clubs.
Where has it been confirmed that Swansea want to 'move him on' ?
I would have thought not being picked for matches, getting a bollocking from the chairman and now rowing with his own fans was some at least soft evidence that he might not have much of a future at the club. If you had a relegation battle on your hands, would you want Shelvey in the trenches?

Yes thank you, ahead of Ba, Sarr, Reza, Vaz Te, Watt, and quite possibly the other imports we have not seen enough of to discern character either way. If Shelvey has a n 'attitude" problem as you imply, it is that he tries too hard sometimes. I could see that much from his time here when he was getting stick from our muppet supporters who couldn't tell a talented player from a Subbuteto figure.

Actually just seen the widespread coverage of him apparently offering to meet a Swansea fan in the car park... That above video is doing the rounds a lot... Dear oh dear. Not good.

Not unusual to get a % of any money recouped by Liverpool as part of a sell on deal but it won't be much.
(obviously depends on if we waived this upfront for a small upfront payment when we were really skint)
All people are saying is they wouldn't want him in a PL scrap for survival.
I'd have him here alongside Poyet anyday while we're in the C/L1.
