First U21 start for Marsh:
Deloitte Football Money League 2024
jeudi 25 janvier 2024
Deloitte has published their annual report on the highest revenue generating football clubs in the world. The figures represent the year end 2023 accounts.
Real Madrid has taken top spot from Manchester City. In all here are 8 Premier League clubs in the top 20 with West Ham and Newcastle added to the usual suspects. Both Leicester and Leeds have dropped out from last year.
6 clubs fill position 21 to 30; Villa, Brighton, Fulham, Leeds (although they will presumabkly drop out next year following their relegation), Palace and Everton. We have dropped 2 places to 28th.
The only Premier League clubs not in the top 30 are Wolves, Bournemouth, Brentford, Nottingham Forest, Luton, Burnley and Sheffield United.
All the revenues are in euros but based on the exchange rates used our revenues / turnover for 2023 should be c£180m. This is an impressive £20m increase on 2022. Let's hope expenditure has not risen that much.

AFC Bournemouth v Swansea City

On this day: 24th January 1976
We beat the then Mighty Leeds United (European cup finalist the previous season) at Elland Road 1-0 in the FA cup 4th round with Dave Swindlehurst scoring.
This was for me one of the greatest performances I have ever witnessed from a Palace team. The scoreline is not a true reflection of the game, we actually murdered them. Peter Taylor and co were world class on this day. It was the day Big Mal introduced wingbacks to football; A Masterclass from a great Tactician.

Rumour: Adam Wharton Jan 2024, maybe this time around.
Nixon:
Crystal Palace are ready to make a strong £15 million move for Blackburn Rovers midfield starlet Adam Wharton.
Palace have been tracking Wharton since his debut 17 months ago and hope to agree a fee with Rovers quickly.
Eagles are going all out for Wharton who has also been chased by Newcastle United, Wolves and Brighton this season.
Wharton signed a new deal at Blackburn recently but the Palace offer will be the biggest they have had so far.

As interest grows in our academy and more people watch Palace's U21 games, I thought I'd do a thread where we can see where our ex academy players have gone to. The idea that I update the thread ongoing.
I know posters who like to keep track of our ex youth players in non league, but I thought I'd keep it to pro leagues in the OP only as it's far easier to maintain, but feel free to post in the replies if you see any of our ex academy players playing in lower leagues.
I've also included players who joined our U21/U23 teams and then left, football has probably changed a bit since 15 years ago or so, and I think clubs include their U21 teams as part of their academy now.
If I've missed anyone, please add them in the replies!

True crime podcasts/documentaries
mardi 23 janvier 2024
Along with comedy, True crime is my favourite genre.
Listening to podcasts and watching documentaries is absolutely fascinating. Trying to put yourself in the mindset of how a killer thinks or in the mindset of the authorities who are trying to catch them is compelling listening/viewing.
I first got interested in it as a child in the 80’s when a nurse Anita Cobby was brutally murdered not far from where I lived. Then I started reading books on people like Dennis Rader (the btk killer) and John Wayne Gacy but now these days I like keeping up with more current missing persons or murders like the Delphi case
Anybody else interested in true crime or have any good recommendations?

Crystal Palace have completed the signing of Craig Farquhar from Larne FC.
The 20-year-old centre-back will be a part of Darren Powell’s Under-21s, after making the move from NIFL Premiership side Larne FC.
Farquhar came through the ranks at his hometown club Ballymena United and was captain of their Under-20s side before progressing to the first-team.
He signed his first professional contract with the Sky Blues at the age of 18 and moved on loan to second-tier side Dundela FC, where he made 12 appearances and scored two goals in 2021/22.
In 2022/23, Farquhar made 14 appearances for Ballymena United and scored twice, including a header in the Irish Cup semi-final against Larne to send his side through to the final.
The defender then joined Larne in the summer of 2023 and went on to make 27 appearances in all competitions this season, including the Champions League qualifiers, before making the move to south London.*
Upon putting pen to paper on his new deal, Farquhar said: “I’m delighted to be here, it’s such a big club. I’m glad to get everything over the line and I can't wait to get started.”
Academy Director Gary Issott also added: “Craig is a player that the club’s watched over a long period of time.
“He’s a young centre-half that’s experienced both first-team and European football early in his career and he has all the attributes to play at the highest levels in the game.
“Craig joins our Under-21s and will add competition in the defensive part of the pitch.”*

Car Finance Scandal
I've just clocked this, and it's really rather interesting. And if any of you bought a car on the HP in the last few years, then it might be worth a few squid. To view the link you have to Register or Login
Millions of drivers could be in line for a payout, it has been claimed, after the UK financial watchdog opened an investigation into whether consumers had been unfairly charged inflated prices for loans on new and secondhand cars.
The Financial Conduct Authority said on Thursday that it had decided to examine whether a compensation scheme was needed to deal with alleged large-scale mis-selling in the £50bn-a-year motor finance sector.
Martin Lewis, a consumer champion, said the move could lead to “the new PPI” – a reference to the multibillion-pound payment protection insurance scandal.

Who do we miss the most??
Was thinking about the players we are missing at the moment and was keen to know who people think is the player we miss the most out of the obvious options.
Hopefully this poll is a bit easier to understand, for some of course :D
If one of those players could be back for the next game who would make the biggest improvement to the team?

5 at the back
Can anyone explain why a manager in his very long career has decided now to employ a back 5 all of a sudden. We're probably the most ill equipped club to do that with.
Player ratings - Arsenal away
I can at least attempt to kick this off.
Would be good to discuss player performances away from rants elsewhere.
Eze was MOM for me aside from when he carelessly lost the ball for the fourth.
Henderson wasn’t great for both corner goals which was a surprise as thought he would be stronger than Johnstone.
Hughes started well but faded. Schlupp was ok at times.
Mateta worked hard and linked play at times with little support or service.
Ahamada played in an unfamiliar role but showed one strong run. Franca showed a flash of quality.
