Lee loving life at Palace
DESPITE the club's off field problems Palace target man Alan Lee insists this current campaign has been the most enjoyable of his footballing career.
The Irish centre forward has been a huge plus for the Eagles this season, transforming his status at Selhurst Park with a number of hard working performances alone up front.

Alan Lee in action against Bristol City
Lee scored his sixth goal of the campaign against Sheffield United on Saturday and, although last night's defeat to Bristol City took some of the gloss of that result, he says he is currently loving his time at the club.
"I'm so happy here, I think this is the best season I've had in football, certainly the most consistent and I've relished the challenge," he said. "I've really enjoyed every minute of it."
Lee admitted the 1-0 defeat to Bristol City was hard to take but insists the team have enjoyed working with new manager Paul Hart in the short amount of time he has been at the club.
"I think the lads have been very impressed with him and I think he has very quickly gained the respect of the squad," he said.
"We were off the boil [against Bristol City] and I think we looked a bit leggy. But, the same way we didn't get too high when we won against Sheffield on Saturday, we won't get too down after this defeat either.
"I've been down in a relegation fight before and there will be lots of ups and downs before the season is out."

“If you dish out the insults pal you've got be strong enough to take them to.
Have you got any sensible comments to make rather than be a lemming and jump on the bandagon in posting immature comments.”

“It is simply because, my intelluctually challenged friend that SJ loaned the club money from his personal wealth to keep the club going. When purchasing a club one would then hope that it would generate enough income and to balance the balance the books, I presume this is when he dipped in to his own pocket and naturally he will want most of that back and this is trying to be sorted at the moment. Try keeping up with the news theat's on the HOL and the BBS.”

“Potty Peter,
It said in this weeks advertiser that the Administrators are looking to Sell the Club for £10m, that must be based on the Value of the Players because they are the only Assets with have, we don`t own Selhurst Park or the Beckenham Training ground.
Potty Peter, how does Saint Simon expect to get any money back?.
Potty Peter, will the new investors be expected to Cough up £10m to buy the Club, more Millions to buy Selhurst Park, are they Expected to pay the debts Jordan Occured & pay Jordan Money?
What is the Point in Giving Jordan Money, he`ll only waste it on Shit West End Plays & Films like he Did when he was at Palace, instead of Investing it into the Team.”
