Joyful may be able to shed some light on the following rumours.

Sudden surge in rumours linking Bowen with £50m move to Palace?

Ethan Pinnock wanted for leadership.
Victor Nailson of Galatasaray.

We want 2 defenders, then will loan Casey to Stevenage.




Want Essugo of Chelsea on loan.
Luke Chambers of Liverpool if Diouf goes.
El Hadj Mbodgi of Slavia Prague being looked at.

Most advanced move Reiss Nelson is agreed with player. Not sure if it’s loan but he is likeliest next signing.

Reiss Nelson! Someone with similar injury record as Fulkrug. Great. As if things couldn't get any worse.
I would like to hope this isn't true, and if it is, I think it will show the head of recruitment is obviously out of his depth and is basically a stooge who has been put in place to placate the fans, but doesn't have any qualifications to do the job.

I think Joyful is away this week, Mac.

Bowen is going nowhere. I doubt Pinnock is of interest, and I think you mean Victor Nelsson. You could be right, but I doubt it. He has been playing in Serie B, and the team never took up the option. But who knows what is happening? Certainly not me.

I literally don't care who we sign and who goes now. Until this fraud of a manager goes, it won't make any difference anyway. Let Bowen go; he's far too good to be hanging around an awful team playing terrible football anyway.


Reiss Nelson, perfect replacement, is terrible with a horrendous injury record. Welcome to the first team, don!

No, Mac, is right, they are unbelievably still interested in Reiss Nelson.
It's one thing that many of the players we have bought are on the old side, and Solomon has an iffy injury record, but it's not a patch on Nelsons.

As Joyful would say don't shoot the messenger. Reiss Nelson deal all but done, apparently.
