I can't believe Hodgson is still to make his first Palace signing. How slow is he?

 

Bye Ben and thanks for everything

 

Odd first names and we already have a ‘Watson’ so could be confusing. For that reason I’m out.

 

Watson was excellent against Lester after he got the booking out of the way early doors. Has an excellent attitude and proved to be a good if not always first choice option in midfield. No problem if he goes back to Palace and gets more gametime. So long as we can maintain adequate cover due to the injury list he has earned an end of career move in my book.

 

I think he can still be of use as a very reliable squad player, but if he is looking to get more game time, good luck and best wishes to him, and a huge thanks for his service

 

Although not a first teamer we need him for the rest of the season because of the injuries. Unless a replacement is coming in.

 

Here's hismore dynamic replacement:

 

Doesn't look good for Capoue if Watson ahead of him in the pecking order

 

According to SSN off to Forest on loan. Should please some people.

Ben Watson going to #NFFC on loan.

 

A great servent for our club, but sadly his best days are behind him, I hope he gets a permenant deal from them at the end of the season.

 

Pantillimon gone with him apparently

 

Two for one deal on our heroes from the 2-1 quarter final win at the Emirates.

Edit: they're linked to Guedioura too, getting the band back together!

 

Brereton would be nice

 

Good luck to him.

His debut contribution vs Blackpool was Slav’s Mark Robins moment.

 

Exemplary professional, always got on with whatever was asked of him to the best of his ability and without making a fuss, we have a lot to thank him for

 

Definitely out of his depth now but a very respectable player - great attitude and clearly cared about the job

 

Good luck to him. Seems to be a decent pro but mid table Championship is his place now.

 

Thanks for everything Ben, always tried his best (unlike some) and was hugely important during the promotion season and our first season up.

 

A solid professional and a very decent kind chap too, great personality traits, would be an awesome coach or manager.

His contribution in the Soton game last season, getting a red card by fouling S.Long when he was about to be one on one with our keeper. Taking one for the team and helping us get a point

 

I'll echo the above sentiments - consummate professional and thoroughly decent bloke. He'll be an asset to Forest in the Championship I'm sure.

 

As above. All the best Ben, have done a cracking job here, hope you do well with Forest. Proper pro.

 

Great pro. Last act for us stopping player/fan trouble won't be forgotten. Good luck to him.

 

A decent guy, who did a good job for us. I wish him the very best for the remainder of his career.

 

The Championship is his level

 

Best debut ever. 2-0 down against Blackpool, on comes Watson, win 7-2!

 

Complete professional, and played his part in getting us promoted. Hope he does well for Forest

 

Good lad

 

Good luck Ben.
Someone who can reflect on his career and say he did all he could and scored an FA Cup winning goal too!
Thanks BW.

 

One of the few of the current squad I've any respect for. Good luck Watson.

 

He's the reason we're in the Prem right now. Dawdled on the ball too much, but was excellent for us. Wouldn't have minded him playing for us for the rest of the season!

 

With Cleverley injured, let's see what disasterous, experimental formation we are forced to play now, with no other centre backs on the books who are fit and not Capoue.

PS. How come Capoue never gets injured?
