A tweet from Zaha to Clyne....


signed for southampton ...goodluck lad

Think the OS need to get their act together if they want to be the "first" to announce when we have signed someone. Hope they dont just work 9 - 5, twitter is 24/7 (worse luck!)

Neither Saints nor Palace OS has said anything yet. Maybe this is accurate......

So bang goes any future friendly working relationship with Palace

Well their chairman does have a bit of a reputation, fact is the kid was out of contract, compensation figure is not about what a club might pay if he was still under contract but still dont know why we didnt link to Martin going the other way. I suspect we offerred around 1.5m with some add ons

If he thinks we are taking the mick then lets bring Martin back as part of our premiership squad

Our postman is a big life long Palace fan and he reckons we have got a real bargain for a outstanding young player..fast , good at going forward and an excellent allround defender..
Our terrace used to be called championship row..many supprters of championship clubs, except me of course now , at least for a season anyway !!

Welcome Tango man, yeah I think Clyne looks a decent buy, you can tell your postie they have a decent young centre half on loan there this season in Martin.

have some faith think Adkins will put together a decent squad that will surprise a few this season, just need a quality centre half.

Cheers..as a 57 yearr old life long saints fan faith is my middle name..reckon we still need a leader , and a decent old fashioned centre half type midfield general who can lead and defend !!!
John McGrath would be my mould ..kicked anything that moved !!!..And what a player as well !!

John McGrath, now you're talking!!
