Sears had other offers - Warnock

Sun, 28 Jun 14:15:50 2009

Crystal Palace boss Neil Warnock revealed West Ham striker Freddie Sears rejected a number of other offers in favour of a move to Selhurst Park.

Sears will spend the 2009/10 campaign on loan with the Eagles after making 22 appearances in the Premier League last season for the Hammers.

Warnock told the club's official website: "Even after he had agreed to join us he received another couple of decent offers from other clubs."

He added: "But he stayed true to his word and will be joining the lads at Beckenham this Wednesday for our pre-season preparations."

  2. I hope Freddie keeps progressing and ends up being a­ top Hammer,and finishes up by sticking two fingers up­ to all the cynics,and I ain't a Warnock lover.

  3. I think Freddie will relish this opportunity but its­ one he really needs to take by the scruff of the neck­ and prove himself and to other people that he can­ fulfill his potential. COME ON YOU EAGLES. WARNOCK IS A­ LOVE HIM OR HATE CHARACTER AND ITS WHAT THE GAME STILL­ NEEDS.

  5. This has nothing to do with Palace. I hope palace go­ up, more London clubs the better. It's all about­ Warnock. He is every thing that's wrong with­ football and I thought that before the Teves thing. ­ So, get rid of him and happy days.

  7. God, how bad must those offers have been? Iran FC?­ Maybe it was Sheffield United, that would have made 12­ months with Warnock sound appealing, but only just. ­ There's no doubt, if Warnock has any influence on­ the boy he may has well keep him he wont be worth­ having back. Sorry Freddie, thought you had­ potential.

    Ps. Neil, do the world a favour and pull­ your bottom lip over your head and swallow.

  8. Freddie Sears must be mad to join up with the warlock­ Warnock, who is still crying about the Tevez affair­ instead of blaming himself for Snuffield Uniteds­ relegation. He will ruin the boy and then send him back­ to play for Thurrock or Canvey Island.
