It'd be disappointing not to sign him, but if we have a price point that we're not willing to budge from, and they have a price point they're not willing to budge from, than its fair enough really.

 

I don't really see how it's embarrassing for either side really, both clubs are just trying to protect their assets, which is again, fair enough.

Yes we have definitely had the piss taken out of us.

 

Honestly it's been laughable we're like a kid jumping for something being held just out of reach by a teasing adult

We tried .......

[Big River]

hopefully that's the end of this ridiculous saga now. he's shite anyway.

[Hanshithispantz]

I wouldn't take it as gospel that Palace have moved the goalposts like, unless they've just decided he's no longer for sale.

 

The fact we haven't gotten either a CB or a RW in is absolutely mesmerising like, it doesn't even seem possible 

[Theregulars]

You'd really hate to think that we were never planning to spend much all along, but something somewhere doesn't add up. Monumental risk taking by the club to proceed standing pat.

Piss taking small time bastards.

Whilst I agree, that would only be on the basis that what we've been told by the media has been true.

 

One way or another, the media have been absolutely wrong.... including the bald cunt above who said it was happening twice.

Because we’ve wasted weeks on it.

Aye, Mitchell and Eales 

[CheikBoom]

Palace have hardly done anything wrong and I'd fully expect us to behave the same way when someone comes in for the likes of Bruno, Isak and Gordon.

 

Move on, go get Simikan or someone of that ilk

Yeah that's the only other thing that it suggests tbh. Because otherwise it really has Ashley era levels of incompetence about it.

 

The worry is the club really doesn't want to invest further into Howe's image of the squad.

It’s more the fact it’s been dragged out until the day before the window closes than we disagree on price like.

Yeah.  Unless they suddenly pull something out the bag (doubtful).  The ratings for this transfer window are going to make for grim reading

Howe

Will wait and see where we are tomorrow night but aye if we've really managed not to sign a CB or a RW this has been a fucking disaster  Wouldn't read too much into a Graeme Bailey article like, will wait to see who else reports it.

We should have come to this conclusion a month ago man

Don’t want to do business with us due the their active human rights fanbase.

They’re grim when we’ve had decent windows. Minus figures ahoy

It’s embarrassing because we should’ve moved on ages ago to another target. Hopefully they still have someone in mind and there’s still time.

[TheHoob]

And aye also Palace owe us fuck all, if we've fucked it then it is 100% on us. 

[Andy84]

Two summer windows in a row that are looking like a failure

This is possibly the first time ever that a transfer saga has made me not want a player who I think would be great for us.
