Why didn't they just say he's simply not for sale at any price? 4 bids is a crazy waste of time for everyone involved.
It is bonkers. And almost stupid. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a club officially been turned down 4 times. Mitchell must be pissed.
Crystal Palace will be if they fail to get him to sign a new contract after this. He'll go to Liverpool or a similar club next summer for about half of what we're rumoured to have offered.
Rumours are that Liverpool are after Wharton - Parish will 100% do business with them just like he Vitesse for whatever they tell him to vote for.
Move on, he isn't worth +£65 million. There are definitely better defenders on the market and won't cost us £60 million. Wasn't Parish the one who was whining about our takeover IIRC?
Yeah you remember right and I suspect he along with his southern chums have found this entire thing rather good fun.
I would be actually angry if we went up to 70m. That’s ludicrous money for a player not worth anywhere near that.
Lesson to be learned here. If NUFC aren't leaking this stuff to the press then Crystal Palace side are. Big red flags here and yet we persist. For past 2 weeks we have had running commentary about bids etc. Pretty clear Palace are acting in bad faith. In future if running commentary on bids appears, pull out and move on
****ing hell transfers with us take the utter piss man. Someone in our recruiting network is obsessed with PL players. It’s like a world outside the UK doesn’t exist; we all know it’s Howe.
By players or the club. We are led to believe that the player wants the move. But the club are holding out for 75m. That’s crazy money.
