Freedman begins rebuilding of Palace squad with immediate effect

Crystal Palace were already assured of Championship football next season but still ended the campaign with a 3-0 home defeat to Nottingham Forest. Palace boss Dougie Freedman is beginning to make plans for next season but admits money will be tight.

He said: "I am disappointed with the result, but for us to finish where we have from where we were when I took over is a huge success.

"I will have discussions next week about budgets but my early signs are we will be going the way of bringing young players through.

"I will try and stabilise the club over the next few years and build it slowly. I don't see us buying £1million players, we are not geared up for that yet."
