That statement seems confident that the club is funded, but who knows for how long. It does make me wonder if Dai has received a better offer.

Yep - probably until the transfer window opens. The question of how the club is being funded and how RC was paid off needs answering.

Dai has next to no liquid cash and the Olise money will be in instalments as and when Palace are paid.

Total flip of narrative. The consensus was that Dai was playing games, but Couhig held all the cards. Now he has been sent packing. Dai is a bastard negotiator and will hold out for what he wants, however unrealistic it is.

Based on the fact that year end accounts haven’t been submitted, no.

Perhaps our next prospective buyer is funding us (until their deal collapses then the next one will, etc)

Doesn't this mean the club now needs to publish the overdue accounts ASAP to avoid sanction from the EFL? IIRC they were using the pending takeover as an excuse

Snowflake Royal I think we can expect a mass exodus in January, if we make it that long, and without a deal beijg completed.

Firstly, to fund finishing the season, and secondly I can't imagine any of the players or staff are willing to put up with this any longer.


I would think mass transfer requests will be landing on the managers (whoever that may be) desk in the coming months and will all be granted to try and get us through till May.

Who would have thought it would come to this? gutted doesn`t even come close.


Yep, I feel the same.

I wonder how Dai came up with the funds to pay back Couhig.


The sell on fee the club got from Palace when Olise went to Bayern Munich.

It does feel different to the bad days last season. Every time last year there was anger and fight; the players, fans and staff threw everything at last season to keep the club afloat, and it looked like we'd won. The final home game against Blackpool and the opening one against Wigan felt like the end of the chapter.

I'm angry today of course, but mostly I feel resigned and defeated. We threw everything at getting Dai out and we lost. I expect performances on the pitch to tank.

Yeah I worry that now it will be a proper slide and the fans and players are tapped out of energy with all this

I thought that's just what's keeping us afloat. Couhig reportedly put in £6m+, which is more than the Olise money.

I haven't watched a game this season as I've felt we've been in limbo, so other things have taken a priority. Can't imagine how the players must feel and can't be a coincidence that we played like shit just as news of the takeover collapsing was coming out.

If we fail to pay their wages we are in breach of contract and they could walk away IIRC. IT need to be 2 consecutive months or something but I believe there is a route by which they could become free agents before Jan.
