Plays for Real Madrid, wanted by Man U and Liverpool but sings for BHA!!?? Er Why? This sounds strangely good.

Probably because he's seen it's near impossible to make the Real Madrid first team and doesn't want to make that mistake again. He could realistically make the Albion first team this season, and, if he does well, possibly the Scottish squad too.

Looks a good deal for us and the player, he needs to start pushing for a first team place to have a better chance of getting selected nationally. May sound a bit clichéd but reckon he might have to bulk up a fair bit to be a regular in this division, as we have seen with Tex and Lingard-great ball control and dribbling is one thing but switching from playing U21/youth games to the Championship is a tough transition initially.

Yep. Not overly convinced that a club of our stature needs to be scraping the barrel with Real Madrid's cast-offs. Am willing to proved wrong however.

They did manage a draw with us the last time we played though so perhaps they're pushing on.

Exactly. I mean it's not as though Real are Sheffield Wednesday :lol: let alone the mighty dirty Leeds.

He's presumably hoped to become the Tex replacement? A flair AM. Looks a good signing to me.

"Paella-eating Scottish type... Jack Harper".

There's a song in there somewhere.

(Buggered if I can work out what the original song is...)

Two good signings, albeit probably for the future, in two days and both from European clubs. Sounds very promising to me

Who's that man who played for Real,
whose so flair we can't complain?
El Jock Harper is his name
and he scores a goal a game,
and we don't care that he's a sweaty too.

Brighton factually.....
This is too good to be true, I refuse to believe anything until Naylor tweets it......

taps fingers on desk repeatedly and waits, and waits, and waits...










I am still waiting....
