I dont know about John Textor himself, though I like his passion. I do know a lot about the guys he co-owns Palace with, the Harris Blitzer group, they've been focused on turning around one of my other sports franchises and have been seemingly doing a great job in a short amount of time. A shame they wouldnt be involved...

Isn't this guy hated at Lyon?

Looks like they have rebounded a bit since earlier in the season though so maybe it's simmered down a bit?

Well hope you've enjoyed the last hour, bit of hope and all but a cursory Google search just brought this up.

He'll bring Roy and we will be grateful.

Can we give some credit to Steve btw who was absolutely spot on yesterday

I bow at Steve's feet.

Is he in a WhatsApp group with Jim White though?

Oh Esk...

Why do they want out of Palace?

Sounds like Palace didn't want to be part of a multi-club model. Whereas we are not in a position to quibble about stuff like that.

Oh Esk...

He maintains that stance.

This looks very ON.

….i’m just encouraged by the Textor interview/quote. I’m not thinking ‘he’s the one’ but it suggests we’re a proposition for somebody else.

Why do they want out of Palace?

They're in Croydon would be my guess

He maintains that stance.

This looks very ON.

Love the way, when presented with evidence to the contrary - he always doubles down. Absolute maverick lol

 

[Exeter_Gently]

Why do they want out of Palace?

Its just him... he's fell out with their fans.

Based on knowing his name for 5 minutes and watching one video of him ranting for 90s, it does not surprise me at all that he likes to have conversation/negotiations in the full public eye. He seems like a straight shooter.

That said, who knows what is really happening and who knows what this guy is really like.
