Scott Banks

 

[BFC4EVA]

Scott banks winger from Crystal palace 21 year old I believe

 

[Jakeyr]

Where was all these midfielders last season when we needed them ? I'd imagine virtue and maybe another will be leaving if we have bids inn

 

[Meliora]

We need a striker to augment the squad we have, love for us to be linked with one or two.

 

[NewburyOne]

Scott Banks would be a terrific signing. More of a number 10 but a very talented player.

Scott Banks would be a terrific signing. More of a number 10 but a very talented player.

You know him well then? He might well be brilliant, and I hope he is but I'm fed up of our fans pretending to know who a lot of these players are, who have never really impacted the football league.

He was excellent at Bradford last season, I saw him a few times, most notably against Carlisle in the play offs. I wouldn't say I know him well but you only need to see someone a few times to see they have ability. Have a read of some of the Bradford fans comments, they absolutely love him.

 

[Tangerinenick]

Would add real quality but unlikely we will sign him.

 

[TangerinePeel]

Palace fans seem to think that's way too low of a bid for it to happen

Do we even have any idea what the bid is?

I'd rather read people's opinions on players I don't know than threads suggesting we should sign Ross Barkley and Troy Deeney.

 

[Critchknows]

500k

 

[BFC4EVA]

£500,000

 

[Ping Pong]

Why not bid 500k for Bowler back?

 

[Lost Seasider]

Why not bid 500k for Bowler back?

Because Forest would laugh at us, the player wouldn't drop down to L1, and we can't afford to pay him £20,000 p/w.

For a 22 y/o who spent last season in L2?

They must think we're still in the PL.

 

[BFC_53]

I love all these fans who claim their players are worth millions and laugh at our offers, for players who have never played above league two, and in this case has 57 first team appearances to his name. It's nonsense. £500k is a very decent offer, and I expect CPFC will think so too as long as there is a good sell on clause. It means they could eventually make a seven figure profit on a player that's never played for them.

 

[Grayth]

Because they've heard of players who haven't played for us before.

Think Palace fans are so used to talking about prem figures that they forget what it's like in the lower leagues. One of them just said they shouldn't get less than £2m for him. Completely out of touch with reality.
