Holloway to Palace

[Big Mack]

He's accepted their offer.

Odd one as he'd previously put pressure on players to stay at Blackpool.

I can't work out the logic behind this.

I can't work out the logic behind this.

Family all live and work in London and Blackpool is a $$$$hole - makes perfect sense to me!

And London isn't?

 

[Big Mack]

The family ties line doesn't wash with me. I'd hazard a guess at something going on behind the scenes at Pool such as funds not being made available. Having said that, aren't Palace meant to be skint?

 

[Adrian_Monk]

And London isn't?

Depends whether you're living in Hackney or not.

Moving from Blackpool to London is like ditching Kerry Katona for Delta Goodrem.

 

[freezin]

Karl Oysten is supposed to be tighter than a gnats chuff.

 

[freezin]

Blackpool is a $$$$hole but Londons full of vacuous ********s.
As long as ive got a hole in my $$$$ ill be for the North over London any day of the week.

 

[Sedgley Gold N Black]

Strange one, perhaps Ince and Phillips are off in Jan?

Saying that you'd expect Zaha would be leaving palace.

 

[kidder_wolf_II]

He will have some explaining to do as he will come across as a liar if he does walk away from his contract with Blackpool.

 

[OoohRobbieRobbie]

$$$$ing hate Holloway. So glad we didn't get him.

We are talking Croydon here, not really London as such. Still better than Blackpool mind.

It is irrelevant. I doubt he lives in the town itself anyway

 

[Oh When the Wolves]

so he has to live exactly where the club is?

 

[mister-t]

i thought he had just moved home?living just outside blackpool?

really? Croydon is an utter scum pit

 

[JOSWolf]

I'd hate to live in London. Give me the South Staffs countryside any day of the week!

 

[MonkeySpanner]

WOW......did not see this one coming.

I haven't been to Blackpool for many a year but Croydon is no oasis.

 

[The Professional]

He performed a miracle in getting Blackpool up and nearly performed another keeping them up. There is no money or growth potential there- always going to be a battle to sign or keep any decent players. He obviously feels that the grass is greener at Selhurst- we shall see. I think he will do well there.

 

[Bahama Wolf]

Palace have a very good team in the making and will definitely make the play offs if they can keep Zaha beyond January.

 

[PumpKing]

It was really more a comment about how bad Blackpool was.

I know a few great Palace fans who live in Croydon mind.
Top blokes.

Croydon & Blackpool. Bad...but not as bad as Rhyl.
