Crystal Palace are set to sign Tim Cahill for 2 million pounds.
:shock: Another Aussie in the side, hopefully he can take us to the next FA Cup with a winning goal ;-)

I would have taken survival in the Priemership instead of the FA Cup and get relegated back into the Championship (Division 1, old Division 2).

For sure Craig, survival is the key this season and then we start rebuilding.....we'll take the FA Cup later when we are in the top 8 :D

:roll: :roll: Tim Cahill's move from Millwall to Crystal Palace has collapsed after a cash row with the midfielder's agent.

Cahill's agent asked for a £125,000 payment after chairman Simon Jordan had agreed personal terms with the Australian international.

Jordan said: "I object to paying that for roughly half an hour's work when our fans are paying good money to come through the turnstiles.

"We offered the player a decent Premiership salary and he seemed very keen to join us. The agent then asked for five per cent on top, which equated to £125,000.

"I told him he doesn't work for me but for the player and to take the money out of his wages."

Sam Rush, chief operating officer of SFX, said: "The terms of the deal did not appeal to the player."

Personally if I was him (and I'm not) I would have stayed at Millwall and gain experience in European football in the UEFA Cup.

Did Millwall's owner really do a nude lap in London?

If he did I'm glad I wasn't there.

:lol: :lol:

You call losing to some obscure Slovenian team in the UEFA Cup 1st rnd a good experience? Without doubt the best move for his career would be to a top flight club, let's face it, Millwall aren't gunna be there anytime soon. He's best off leaving as soon as possible.

Can't believe their are other Palace supporters! I thought I was the only one. Couldn't help but love them when they went to the FA cup final all those years ago. Hopefully they can get the team to stay in the top flight.

If he goes to the top flight, no offence, but he is better off going to a club that has more top flight sercurity then what Palace will have next season.

If it wasn't for the money spinning play offs Palace would be just another Championship side.

Dogs of war, I have suddenly grown some respect for you ;-) Anyone that subjects themselves to following Palace rates fairly high up in my book. Craig, understand your point of view, and while it does look unlikely he'll move to Palace, I hope he does move to a top flight club. Mainly to piss off Millwall :twisted:

I think Charlton or to Bolton might be good for him.

You would rather he went to Charlton then say Fulham ;-)
