On reflection it looks like a good bit of business for a player who didn't quite meet upto GJ's expectations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bh_red Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 It doesn't look as though he is meeting Colins expectations, either! he was signed a replacement for Ben Watson, who was expected to leave, but didn't. be very interesting to see how he does on Saturday given the chance. Be interesting what/if Gary mentions him in the run up to the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garlicbread Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Be interesting what/if Gary mentions him in the run up to the game? Adam Baker is bound to ask..he alsways asks the trick questions. I hope he plays. I can see him trying too hard to prove Gary wrong and getting himself sent off.

Roadrunner Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Hope he does not play, always rated him on the park. What went on off the park is mostly rumeors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but they both started all ten games in September and October, but this month Carle has only made the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
italian dave Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 It doesn't look as though he is meeting Colins expectations, either! Three goals though - that would make him top scorer at AG!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CiderHider Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 It says £1m on Fm2009 so it must be true. best bit of business ever tbh, when really we would have bitten off anyone's hand for half of what what we paid considering he was pure crap on and off the pitch. Palarse are mugs, they deserve each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redhyde Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 We got £1million a profit of 4-600k..for a player..who's now been dropped by his team in our league. Only Crewe did better business this summer with their sales... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant wait untill Maynard starts banging in the goals and silences his growing number of critics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe he's had a drastic loss of form combined by our non attacking system. I do bel9ieve in his ability. But, we have so far paid £2million for a championship bench player. As Palace have paid £1 for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolman_Dave Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Some other fees that I don't think have yet been disclosed are £150,000 for Williams and £5,000 for McCombe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bh_red Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 if he can't get in Palace's team, I'd have him back here in a heartbeat.........£500k ok Neil? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg_cpfc Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 True, but they both started all ten games in September and October, but this month Carle has only made the bench. When we lost to Forest 2-0 at Selhurst, Warnock decided to drop Carle and Moses as he felt they didn't perform in the cold weather . This is depsite them being two of our most creative players, while old cloggers like Matt Lawrence keep getting played because they give 110% despite being utter shite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincent_bcfc Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 Some other fees that I don't think have yet been disclosed are £150,000 for Williams and £5,000 for McCombe! It wouldnt surprise me if that £5,000 for McCombe was true! I think if it is then that is the best bit of business we have ever done. He's a brilliant centre back and pops up with really important goals as well As for Nick Carle yes the profit was good but I thought he had something. He was brilliant for his first couple of games but then went off the boil a bit. However towards the end of the season when he played in central midfield with marv i thought he looked quite good - whilst i was dissappointed to see him go i think the profit was needed Maynard will get better with time - He's only 21 and I think that as soon as a couple of goals come (in consecutive games or something) he will be ok. It's the whole confidence/step up/price tag thing - a price like that must be a burden on someone so young Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Portland Bill Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 if he can't get in Palace's team, I'd have him back here in a heartbeat.........£500k ok Neil? Agreed, i think hes a very good player, with the right players around him he is a Premier league midfielder. Palace are the one club he shouldnt have gone to IMO. At times he was on a higher playing level than a lot of our side last season. Anyone who still has the play off final on tape/dvd etc should watch that game and just watch him.

On reflection it looks like a good bit of business for a player who didn't quite meet upto GJ's expectations. Getting old I concentrate on womens figures (none under 30 though Nogbad ; ) My short memory says that we bought Carle for about £685 000 and sold him for about £1 200 000. Think the guys attending the training camp in Portugal can tell the figures they were told. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip Belgrave Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 When we lost to Forest 2-0 at Selhurst, Warnock decided to drop Carle and Moses as he felt they didn't perform in the cold weather . This is depsite them being two of our most creative players, while old cloggers like Matt Lawrence keep getting played because they give 110% despite being utter shite That's totally weird thinking. You would think that,coming from a warm climate ,they would perform better on cold days to keep the circulation going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolman_Dave Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 The £5k for McCombe is definitely true. Apparently Keith Alexander got Jamie to sign a new contract at Lincoln, but knew he was off somewhere (think he went to Grimsby) so he put in a clause that McCombe could be bought for £5k if he wanted to go, intending to come back and sign him for a pittance for his new club, but somehow we managed to find out about the clause and bought him instead!
