Funniest thing I have read in ages ;D
RAP star P DIDDY plans to put the Cristal into Crystal Palace with a shock bid for the struggling London footie team.
The hip-hop mogul has decided he wants to be the next filthy rich foreign owner of an English club.
Eagle eyes ... P Diddy plans to back Crystal Palace
And Diddy, real name Sean Combs, is planning to splash some of his reported £360million on the Selhurst Park side who gave Sun columnist IAN WRIGHT his big break in football.
The bankrupt club is in chaos, facing relegation from the Coca-Cola Championship after having ten points docked for going into administration.
Former owner SIMON JORDAN was no stranger to the jet-set - so at least the poor fans are used to flamboyant playboy owners with a taste for the high life.
Diddy's swoop for The Eagles would bring some much needed bling back to south east London.
Last night his UK spokesman confirmed the multi-millionaire is in the market for Palace. He also added that the New Yorker has his eye on another big club.
Bankrupt
A source said: "Diddy was in London meeting football fixers a couple of weeks ago. The finance is in place, he's just deciding who he thinks he'll make a bid for.
"Portsmouth were mentioned but he thought Palace were a better idea.
"He could cover their debt and bankroll a return to the Premier League. He liked the name as well."
English football is big business and I'm surprised it's taken the loaded rappers so long to get involved.
I only live round the corner from Palace and I'd be happy to show Diddy the best pubs in Forest Hill and East Dulwich.
He'd be welcome to a can of Irn-Bru at Smart Towers too.
There's some Selhurst Park history that I can fill him in on.
It was the scene of ERIC CANTONA's kung-fu kick on a fan. DAVID BECKHAM scored his stunning goal from the halfway line for Man Utd when Wimbledon were sharing the ground with Palace.
