# Crystal Palace: Fans discuss James Vaughan following club post

**A lot of Crystal Palace fans have been quick to reply to a club post on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/CPFC/status/1249385144923938821?s=20) about former striker James Vaughan, where the player talks about his time at Selhurst Park.**

The Englishman, who currently has three goals in eight appearances for Tranmere Rovers, ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/james-vaughan/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/30471)), spoke highly of his career in South London, as he said, via [Crystal Palace](https://www.cpfc.co.uk/news/2020/april/james-vaughan-on-crystal-palace-everton-the-premier-leagues-youngest-scorer-and-jamaica/): “I still hold Palace very highly with regards to the fans and the club. My only regret is I didn’t stay at Palace.”

He clearly holds the Eagles in high regard which is a great thing for the fanbase to hear, especially as he only played 30 times for them, scoring nine times and picking up three assists, per [Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/james-vaughan/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/30471).

At the age of 22 the Eagles tried to sign him permanently, however the player was more attracted to Norwich City, who were playing a division above the South London side in the Premier League at the time, per [Crystal Palace.](https://www.cpfc.co.uk/news/2020/april/james-vaughan-on-crystal-palace-everton-the-premier-leagues-youngest-scorer-and-jamaica/)

It is understandable to see why Vaughan decided to pick the Canaries, but it is a shame that he wasn’t at Selhurst Park for longer in his career as he clearly loved playing at the club.

Fans seem to have a soft spot for him regardless. Here is what they had to say following the club post:
