Same day as Forest sign another player from a Textor club Botafogo at a price under market value. But FIFA have no issue with this.

Igor Jesus could be an incredible signing for them, if they're losing players now I'd prefer it to be one of their CB's.

 

Doubt Marinakis will run out of money soon either, they're clearly proficient at scattergun recruitment. I mean it could go all tits up if their recruitment starts consistently pulling duds and their main big contract players develop terrible recurring injuries, but they're likely to just keep pouring money on it and playing PSR duck duck goose with their international syndicate network buddy mate clubs.

 

Fully willing to let them sit up there for abit being dodgy aggro bastards if it means the inevitable collapse and fallout is dialled up to 11.

 

Could of course all just be some PR for the fans - "we put up a fight to try to keep your favourite players here, honest" - right after selling Elanga aswell.

At just £10m as well - way under the market value. These clubs are a joke 

[Dan]

Looks like their luck hasn't ended then.

[Corky]

This Gibbs-White thing smacks of trying to gain some PR narrative. He clearly wants to go, they wanted a lot more but the release clause became public. Can't see him being back in their squad now.

Just took a dump, currently sat waiting to hear back from Marinakis's lawyer to see if he has a problem with me wiping or not

Bit shit for Palace but not the end of the world, will still have some interesting European trips and maybe a chance of winning it. 

 

Hopefully means forest get humiliated in the league format too. 

[ALC Fox]

Multi-club ownerships are sh!t - including ours.

 

They're disrespectful to all clubs involved imo.

I've said before in this thread, Palace's 2nd home game of the season is against Forest.

 

Current forecast:  Bad blood.

I despise Forest and modern football as a whole. For the first time since relegation happened I'm glad to not be involved in the murky world of the Premier League.

Do Forest  have to qualify or go straight in ?

[Guest Bilo]

[Fear Of The Fox]

Football is currently a sport which is run by global criminal organisations. Owners and agents are the modern Camorra. 

I'm sick of it and I'm not even a Palace fan. 

[AjcW]

Salty salty salty. Should rename them “Dead Sea FC”

They should be made to qualify

if they get straight in then UEFA is a laughing stock (well it is anyway but even more so if they let the forest frauds walk straight in)

Forests owner is under criminal inestigation by the Greek authorities for rackateering, money luandering, etc etc

I would just fvcking love it if he goes down

he deserves it

[urban.spaceman]

Yet another failure of the authorities to establish competent rules that actually work within the realities of the modern football they've created.

 

Not a fan of multi club ownership but Palace's ownership had no reasonable need to dissolve their ownership to prepare for European competition by March 1st as by that point, they were 12th in the Premier League and nowhere near the European places, were out of the League Cup and were about to play in the 5th round of the FA Cup. They'd never won a trophy or qualified for Europe before. 

 

Meanwhile Forest spent most of the season in the Champions League places, so their own DID meet the deadline, only to falter and qualify for the Europa Conference League. 

 

Instead they've now been given a European promotion and stand to attain millions more in prize money, sponsorships, gate receipts and merchandising that they have explicitly not earned.

 

This is the same Forest who, had they been given their 4 point deduction in the season they actually broke PSR rules, would have been relegated on goal difference.

 

Palace should take this to CAS, not that I have much faith in their ability to come to the right conclusion.

 

The authorities have turned this sport into a joke.

Nothing will happen. He's part of the criminal organisation that is the current government there. Nobody can touch him. Proper mafia all of them. Check this out:
