But when you start paying these players 50k a week each, or more in most cases, on long contracts it adds up and if you go down it soon eats up the parachute payments if you don't go up within a season or two. Hopefully Palace will crash and burn. If I was a betting man I'd bet on relegation this season.Chris_from_Sidcup said:
No club is even close to overspending though. Teams get 100m just from tv rights now, so yes the fees are stupid, but every club can afford them.MrLargo said:Transfer fees have reached an entirely new level of ridiculousness this year. This fee, the money Palace paid for James Tomkins, Pogba to Man U, Everton's asking price for Lukaku. Can surely only be a matter of time before someone falls out of the top flight, doesn't make it back before the parachute money runs out and ends up in deep, deep trouble.

Yeah I think they'll go down this season. They'll be minted in the Championship, that league will become much less competitive than we're used to with the relatively huge parachute payments relegated clubs will receive.LargeAddick said:

Which will just be 'tacky', in keeping with the style of the Croydon lot.iainment said:
Well there's 'ticcy tacky' and then there's Pardew's version.iaitch said:Big Nose was saying a couple of days ago that he wants to change their style to be more ticcy tacky.
Now today I read that if they don't get Benteke they'll target Andy Carroll, hmmm just the players for ticcy tacky style.2 -

I get the theory, but I think you will find an increasing number of clubs coming down in disarray with huge wage bills and players that are hard to shift for anything other than a loss. It's always been a bit of problem for clubs coming down but whilst the earning in the prem sky rocket, their not increasing at anywhere near the same rate in the Championship and even with the extra parachute payments, you are going to find some clubs getting into real trouble.se9addick said:

The odds of a club getting promoted without a wealthy backer willing to dip hands in their pockets regularly, seems a fading dream though.0 -
To be fair Pardew just needs to work on half of that new tactic, he is certainly already tacky enough.iainment said:

Those Man U figures are ridiculous, turnover gone from 286m to 510m in just 6 years.0

3 of which were in one game.I_Saw_Semedo_Score said:I remember the days when £25-30m used to buy you a world-class player. Now it buys you a winger who's scored 12 goals in 130 games - and with a poor assist return too. Madness.

So Palarse are selling their skilful pacey winger who assists the team in scoring vital goals for £25m and we sell ours for £2.5m?
Yay, let's all laugh at Palarse.....1 -
Pardew wants Benteke so they can play Teke Tika Taka.0
-
Let's hope Pardew has a relegation dance that is even more cringe worthy than his cup final one.2
-
As i said on the Pardew thread, I put Bolaise in my FF team, I felt dirty doing it but did it as I knew he would be leaving in the transfer window.
I would lump on Pardew being sacked next.

A decent chance we'll be playing those stripy Nigel ***** next season.0

Hmmm...football agent Finnigan said that Bolasie nearly went to Charlton before he signed for palarse!0

I believe Powell was very close to signing him from Bristol City but Palace offered more and he went to them instead. I also believe we went after him when he left Plymouth before his move to Bristol City.T.C.E said:

We definitely did, I remember that. However, Bristol City could offer Championship football whereas we couldn't at that pointSage said:

Think we had Jason Puncheon on trial as well.0

At the time of him leaving Plymouth, he was really good mates with BWP, so I always thought that as well as being one of the favourites for promotion, would've been enough to bring him to us.Hovi's Biscuit said:

But as you said, ultimately they could offer Championship football and more money but than we could. The season after we went after Baldock who eventually signed for Bristol City, was a right kick in the teeth missing out on two players who eventually went to them instead of us.0 -
We may not go up, but I can definitely see Palace going down.2

Are you getting him confused with the young lad who died on a training exercise, he had a similar name which I can't remember at the moment?T.C.E said:

Pierre Bolangi was his name.

Or Bouazza perhaps (who is see now plays for Red Star, alongside Naby Sarr).iaitch said:

My Palace supporting mate said although brilliant on his day he has had 4 good games out of the last 20 times he has seen him.0

I'm sure your Palarse mate also reckons Benteke will be the best player ever for them, and whichever player next leaves them "wasn't all that anyway". He was their most dangerous player on the attack, they got a lot of money for him and now I can't wait to see Pardew spunk it all awayEastTerrace said:My Palace supporting mate said although brilliant on his day he has had 4 good games out of the last 20 times he has seen him.
