Kolinko ready to quit the Palace

August 16 2002

Kolinko - bruised and hurt

Kolinko - bruised and hurt

Goalkeeper Alex Kolinko is ready to fly from the Eagles' nest, after his bust up with Trevor Francis.

Kolinko was consulting his agent Phil Graham about his next move last night, and he may opt to return to Lativa, after feeling very let down by officials at the club.

He told his team mates that he is hurt by Francis making a joke of the incident and angry that Simon Jordan gave him little encouragement at a meeting yesterday.

The 'clipping' that Francis gave him must have been fairly heavy, as Kolinko was sporting a large bruise under his right eye yesterday.

It will be interesting to see whether Kolinko makes the bench on Saturday. If he does, expect him to be covering his ears, incase Francis tries to have another pop.
