    Apparently a deal has been agreed and McCormack will sign for Palace as soon as takeover is completed. The fee is believed to be £1M. Wigan were also interested but Ross is good friends with Dougie Freedman and believes in what he's trying to achieve at Selhurst Park.
    No link to this, it's just info I've been given by a mate of mine who's a Palace fan, so can't confirm the accuracy, but apparently there's about 40 pages about it on one of the Palace forums, which is called something like Holmesdale End. Can't be bothered to search for it, just thought i'd mention it.

    Well Palace are 23rd favourites to win the Championship/promotion so not sure what McCormack is hoping to achieve.

    1 million? You find me a 1 mil striker that will bang you 20 odd goals and can play on the wing & behind the striker.

    Ross had a great season and I cant see him being replaced with 1 million.

    **** or bust now regarding the take over.

    that would give us something to work with & I would even consider that if Warnocks rebuilding.

    Anything less & they can get stuffed.

    But 1 mil? I would rather keep Rosco & let him go for free the next year if a contract cant be agreed through the season.

    Can Palace afford £1m? No. They will probably be able to afford £500k max if that. They are skint, so maybe they will try a season loan with clause to buy. Then again, if they sell Nathaniel Clyne, their very good young right-back they could raise the cash for McCormack. Budget has been blown on Ward, so lets see if Dougie does sonething. Then again, maybe Ross goes to Newco in the Scottish Third.

    £1m for Ross? I'll believe it when I see it. Two possibilities; If this is true, Warnock must have someone else lined up. If he hasn't, then £1m for Ross would seem a good deal for Palace & a lousy one for us, as it would leave us with Becchio, a returning Somma (one day), & my mate Paynter. Not likel to scare the natives too much.

    Me thinks this is a wind up.

    148 pages!! I think there might be some truth in it after all. Crippled Alice fans can't believe their luck. Apparently Burnley have offered more but Ross prefers Palace.

    Just had a read of the huddersfield forum about Clayton, looking at their midfield hes gonna be chasing shadows again next season, he needs a strong partner to help carry him through games.

    I am worried as things stand if this sale does go through... McCormack and Clayton out for 1.5M max - In Norris and Varney as replacements? - If this takeover does go tits up we are bolloxed, I am also getting ever increasingly worried why we are not keeping these players and why we are looking at replacements like Varney and Norris if financial support/takeover is just around the corner.

    Set up your mobile phone as a Wifi Hotspot (pretty easy to do) then the IP becomes untraceable :)
