after Warnocks comments yesterday that he expects him to leave, i reckon he is coming our way. The main reason for this is that he is ginger.

3 reasons why he won't be signed under our current transfer policy...

1 - he'll cost a reasonable amount of wonga
2 - he's capable of playing in the first team now
3 - he'll want some competitive financial remuneration for playing for us

Agree.

also

4 - He is not a tough tackling ball winning midfielder and possibly to similar to Marek
5 - C Palace area bigger club than us...why would he want to join us
6 - BIgger clubs with more competitive wage structures and bigger ambtions will be in for him.

Ah the naivety of the Royals fan.

Do you seriously believe that the manager has the final say at Palace, any more than he does here? If Simon Jordan wants to sell he will. Warnock will live with it.

Simon Jordon dislikes Coppell if that helps.

Unfortunately, I do not see us signing Ben. There is no way that we will pay the transfer fee, or wages for this player.

The fee will be as large as we paid for players when we were in the premiership, why would we pay that now, when we have Harps ? :roll:

No, agree with Platypuss. They've been keen since last January and have the money available.
