Butterfield keeps options open

Danny Butterfield has admitted he may have to leave Crystal Palace.

Danny Butterfield has admitted he may have to leave Crystal Palace if he does not get a regular run in the side.

The 25-year-old has recently been handed a run in the side due to a number of injuries.

However, the former Grimsby man fears he may have to depart Selhurst Park if he fails to hold down a place in Iain Dowie's plans.

"The game is all about opinions," said Butterfield to the South London Press.

"I believe I am good enough to be playing at Championship level week in, week out.

"But if the gaffer's opinion is that I will be dropped when people return from injury, then I know I will have to leave the club for the sake of my career.

"I'll have to wait and see what happens when everyone is back fit."
