[Albion] Chris Martin Contact Made...

[Triggaaar]

Hi Everyone!

I wouldn't normally share information like this but thought this was a slightly different situation, I know someone that works at Fulham FC (I know classic knows someone who works at the club rumour) but this is a fact. Contact was made from Brighton about the possibility of ending the loan agreement between FulhamFc and taking the permanent signing of Chris Martin from Derby FC.

Hello all,

I'm not usually one for transfers news but I have a bit of info I thought I'd share. Someone I know who works at West Ham says we have a very strong interest in signing Ashley Fletcher on loan for the rest of the season.

Just me then?

Hi Everyone!

Corrected for you!

I doubt he's scored since leaving Gwyneth.

He's probably lost his Mojo. Big no from me.

 

[Whoislloydy]

It's the same post structure as well. That is, I think it's the same person in both cases I've seen. Both have turned up, gone in with the "I wouldn't normally do this, but..." and then spouted off a rubbish rumour. As a new account.

My thoughts exactly

Chris Hughton worked with Chris Martin at Norwich and has not been shy in showing his admiration for him in the past, the thinking being this would be the long term replacement for Glenn Murray. I personally think this will be an amazing signing if they can pull it off and make both parties happy, plenty of work still to do on this one knowing that Fulham wanted to keep him to make a stand, but Derby also keen on bringing him back! Could brighton be the right place for him? thought id share this with the forum.

Appreciate all comments,

Up the Albion.

What a clonker

i reckon it's true you know

Hughton let him leave Norwich on a free transfer in 2013 - he obviously didn't think he was Premier League quality at that time when he was 24 and he never scored goals for Norwich whilst under Hughton so I can't see this ever happening.

Yeah, apart from the fact that it 100% definitely isn't, it could be.

 

[Prince Monolulu]

I believe this guy, he sounds genuine and 'in the know'.

 

[BBassic]

He can't play for us as he has already played for Derby and Fulham this season so it clearly isn't a "fact" is it? It's bullshit.

Mods, is there any way you can make this the first post in this topic? It'll save everyone a lot of time.

Wait, are there actually people that are thinking there's any truth in the OP? I don't even think it was a windup, I just thought it was a joke.

Nah, if anyone's silly enough to believe this one, let them believe

Fair point. Maybe there's more to this rumour than I gave credit. I'll downgrade my confidence that it's made up to 100%.

Hi guy, like i said it's down to personal opinion what you believe, as for the dual club response, Brighton have contacted the FA in regards to the possibility of the transfer going ahead and him being able to play for Brighton due to the circumstances i imagine the PFA are involved too.

I think this will happen before the window closes.

I'm not sure I believe this.

Boring

Derby keep buying up strikers and Chris Martin will be on his way in the summer, I was making the point that I can't see Hughton signing him EVER.

 

[Triggaaar]

We're after a striker, and the main 2 requirements are:
a) They're the kind of person that refuses to play when they've decided they want to play for someone else
b) They're ineligible to play

 

[FatSuperman]

I want to start a second account and make an hilarious thread about a striker that no longer plays the game, along the lines of these two threads. Before I make the effort though, can you lot give me a feel for how you'd receive such a joke?

Ideally I'd be trying to achieve at least 5 pages.
