Palace close to double deal
CRYSTAL Palace are closing in on a double capture - Southampton striker Stern John and Derby defender Claude Davis.
The South London Press understands that Trindad & Tobago international John, 32, has been offered a deal by the Eagles. The former Nottingham Forest and Birmingham forward is still wanted by Southampton, who he has been training with over the summer, but he is keen to work with Palace boss Neil Warnock. And John is set to be joined in SE25 by Claude Davis, who spent time on loan with the Eagles last season. Derby have told the big Jamaican defender he has no future at Pride Park and are looking to terminate the final two years of his contract. Don't miss Friday's South London Press for the full story. |

I'd rather we lumped all the wages at Rasiak. 1 quality targetman is all we need. John is just padding and more of the same.

Do we never learn our lesson ?
Please god not another over the hill journeyman striker. What is the point in shifting out all the deadwood and then bringing more straight back in ? ![]()

Think they'd both be good additions.

I think people need to start realising that we won't be signing Leroy Lita as his wage demands are way out of our pay structure. Stern John and Claude Davis will probably only cost us around £5-6,000 a week for both players, which is around £20-25,000 a month whereas Lita would be wanting those sort of wages every week!
Stern John will be a shrewd signing on a 1 year contract and is a player more than capabale of scoring goals in the Championship so for me am happy with this signing. Claude Davis is also again decent enough in the Championship and done his job well when he was here and will be decent back up to have. I doubt the wages will be that high either so in theory Warnock has got 2 players with good experience which gives the squad more options and better cover than what we had last year. |

Well, maybe, if we didn't need players in other positions, or with different attributes. Why Davis, unless we are about offload one of Lawrence or Fonte? I can only assume that the signing of John would mean the overdue departure of the Norfolk plank? Where are the wingers we were thought to be desperate for? |

Good signings if they are both on not too much money and one year contracts. I'd be happier to see those two in the lineup than Lee and Lawrence, and they add valuable cover for no transfer fees.

Can we at least wait until Stern John has played a few games for us before passing judgement?

Think John could a great player for Sears to play with, he can hold the ball up well and flick it on for Freddie

This was completely what was going through my mind when reading these comments. To a certain extent, the jury's out on all new signings until they get the chance to perform. Stern John IMO has done nothing to deserve being hanged before he's even reached the scaffold.
