CRYSTAL Palace are interested in Chesham United defender Fitz Hall.

The Nationwide League first division side have had the 21-year-old talented defender watched and United boss Bob Dowie says he won't stand in Hall's way if the London club decide to take it further.

Nationwide League Oldham Athletic and Conference sides Woking and Stevenage are also showing an interest and Dowie is not surprised.

He said: "He is justifying a lot of the interest that is around him at the moment. There's a few teams interested in him and he deserves that.

"We're pleased to have talent emerging from the club because that is what it is all about. Our job is to help him into the Football League. I would be delighted to see him go onto bigger and better things."
