bluebruce Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I think what I saw was that it would be far less than that. Ie, literally just what it cost to train the player. And I recall something about the prem threatening to withdraw payments to the lower leagues if it wasn't agreed. But my memory on this is vague, maybe someone else can put it straight?

And I recall something about the prem threatening to withdraw payments to the lower leagues if it wasn't agreed. But my memory on this is vague, maybe someone else can put it straight? I think this was fairly recently. Wasn't there a palace fan on here posting about signing a petition against it? Get the feeling it's something they're trying to introduce as opposed to something they have already introduced. I could be wrong though....

braddock Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I was under the impression it had passed. Burnley were complaining. Don't know why, as far as youngsters go they are hardly Crewe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Backroom Tom Posted January 18, 2012 Backroom Share Posted January 18, 2012 Correct me if I'm wrong, but a few months ago weren't the rules on compo changed to allow far less? I definitely saw something on the mirror site about it, but not sure if it went through or if it applies to prem clubs. I thought it only applied to football league clubs which makes the whole thing even worse and the rich get richer as the poor get screwed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
67splitscreen Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 How fast will he be out of the blocks in the summer, 26.26 mph according to some stat man, that was against Wolves/Wigan?, officially the fastest milk cart in the Prem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeChuck Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 If Hoilett does leave we should go all out to get Wilfried Zaha from Palace. Similar sort of player, perhaps a bit more unpredictable but isn't afraid of tracking back. I know he gets linked to big clubs a lot, but so did Victor Moses and he ended up at Wigan for a relatively small fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we need to cut wages not add to them. It won't happen. Good player though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jones_rover Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Was just going to post Zaha would be a good alternative! Alan Nixon reckons he would be available for £8m..... Not unrealistic if we got £6m for hoilett, however Venky's are unlikely to have the same thoughts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not unrealistic if we got £6m for hoilett, however Venky's are unlikely to have the same thoughts! I think there are few things less realistic than Venkys sanctioning an £8m spend on any player, ever. If we were to get £6m for Hoilett the majority of it would go towards paying running costs. Bleak, eh?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not unrealistic if we got £6m for hoilett, however Venky's are unlikely to have the same thoughts! I'd take that figure with a huge pinch of salt. The same hype and figures surrounded Victor Moses for a while...apparently both Man City and Arsenal were chasing him for big money moves, then he goes to Wigan for £2.5 million. I can't imagine Zaha would go for any more than £4 million if Palace remain a Championship club. He's very rough around the edges still, I can't see any top half PL team going in for him yet. There seem to be come crafty agents around who build players up by circulating rumours of big money moves to big clubs. We saw the same with Scott Dann in the summer (and his partner Roger Johnson). Both went for less money and to 'smaller' clubs than any of the initial media reports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughesy Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Agree le chuck, £4m is the absolute tops a player like him is worth yet surely. He's not done anything yet to justify an £8m fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
