James Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Did Hodgson leaving England have any bearing on Townsend reportedly leaving? Ithink Townsend felt more secure about his England prospects with Hodgson as boss. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ithink Townsend felt more secure about his England prospects with Hodgson as boss. You would have to think so, he needs to impress a new manager who might not even bother to watch the Championship.

cubaricho Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 He wants to play in the prem. The club had only itself to blame. Thought he really bought into it up here. Then I remembered all footballers are greedy self centred arseholes. Yup. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEEJ Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 It's a massive shame he's not staying with us. He'd have developed far more under Rafa than under the charlatan at Palace but hey ho. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LV Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 This fella has bought Pardew's snake oil and magic beans. I would love to have been a fly on the wall when Pardew was peddling his lies to him about glorious, front-foot football and team identity. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ste Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Hard to say at this stage if Benetiz decided on a different path with Ritchie or if it's Townsend who wanted out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
U2 Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 I can understand him leaving but Palace seems an awful choice. Ah well. May well have been happy to get the cash plus Andros's wages off the books and invest that money on other players. We will probably end up stronger for this. I guess we've got Ritchie and Gayle for Townsend. We're stronger for that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Applied himself while he was here. No hard feelings personally. Hope (and expect) he fails professionally under Pardew, obviously, though I suspect Palace will have a bit of "new signings" bounce before the new recruits have been Pardewed properly.

TRon Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 At least we found out he was a mercenary cunt early on and got our money back. No harm done, now we can focus on bringing players here who understand what this football club is about and want to be part of something great.

I guess we've got Ritchie and Gayle for Townsend. We're stronger for that. As its stands, yeah. But I'm sure Sissoko will be off soon. So it will be tit for tat with a lot of signings, I think. It's nice that we are actually strengthening, before anyone leaves, though. Plus, it's nice to sign players that actually want to be here. Yes they'll be getting a pay rise. But they're still dropping down a division to sign. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
John P Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Sad to see him leave, he was the one player who I really wanted to stay and I thought he would. But, we're getting Ritchie who has proved he can be prolific in the championship in terms of goals and assists, so it shouldn't weaken us too much. Swapping Rafa for Pardew man, he's going to get into training and realise he's made a terrible mistake. Unless he enjoys Woody's banter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
