Cheers lancy but I didn't refer to TV rights in the £170m promotion prize money. From sites I'm looking at they're telling me that promotion to the Premier League is rewarded by an instant payment of £170m which rises to an incredible £290m should relegation be avoided Are you telling me...

That would comfort me more if we got him to sit down with BK & got both to sign extended contracts. Till then as each day goes by there'll be uncertainty. Our most important signings this window would be securing our central midfield pairing - surely the best in the Championship - and not...

This. Nail meet head. Aren't Clubs promoted to the PL from the Championship already rewarded with a payment of something like £170m? I think they come in staggered payments & all PL Clubs get the same but for a small town Club without a multi millionaire owner bankrolling them (and obviously...

Yeah it's probably the disappointment of not signing Pritchard that's my gripe. What I was trying to illustrate with the Nick Powell anecdote was how he'd virtually promised Wigan a yes reply the next day which gave them & their fans uplifting optimism yet the next day he was literally at...

Sadly Plooks I doubt there'll be any punishment. It's a frequent & too often allowed aspect of football that agents are accepted though unwanted manipulators & leeches. How much is Pogba's agent on for his move? Somewhere around £20m for being a sleazy chaperone for a spoilt overrated player...

That may be so but Spurs themselves have an obligation and responsibility to abide to FA Rules & Regulations so will be very aware that if they dealt with Pritchard and his agent on the quiet they'd be participating illegally in a transfer in that any Club interested in signing their contracted...

Kudos for most imaginative suggestion to date... Here's my take. Pritchard has spoken to us with his agent AFTER we asked Spurs for permission to do so. We've agreed a fee with the Club & the delay we're sweating on is he now goes on to accept personal terms & hopefully signs for us when...

And throw in the factor we now have options virtually all over the pitch to allow for change based on form or opposition. So long as we've no outgoings our squad strength is solid Considering changing your signature yet lol ;)

Thanks perseus. I've corrected my post now to take into account he strongly favours his right foot but is still comfortable using his left. That makes his all round game even better as he won't feel uncomfortable where he receives the ball Getting better as it gets closer to sealing the deal ;)

Edited below

I used to consider him as mainly left footed due to how if he's not used as a central attacking midfielder he plays LCM or even wide left. At Brentford he drifted across the pitch freely when supporting the forwards. Watching more clips of him on YouTube he favours his right as you say But he's...

True enough. That's why I'm still using the word if & saying I won't be confident until it's confirmed This would be a big deal in every sense of the word...but I'll wait for that fat lady to open her lungs ;)

If we have pulled this off it is a superb signing & will add so much to an already competitive squad. I'll never be confident (especially after last season) till we have 100% confirmation but bringing in Pritchard would surely mean we'd be up there & pushing all season I really rate this guy...

Apologies Finchley. My comment regarding how I'd love to see Brady in a Brighton shirt is a personal one that's more than unlikely to happen in view of Norwich's valuation of him. £15m is unrealistic for a guy his age. I threw his name in at the end of my post merely as counter balance after...

A lot of testosterone flying about & I can understand why. I'm barely over the play offs & we come to the part of the season I hate which is when we get back together to train for our next attempt to go up (and I can't contemplate a season where we miss out after the last one. Tony definitely...

Acknowledged & edited :)

Meadowbank haven't disappeared at all. They're now on their third name change each time due to ground relocation The Club began in 1943 as non league Ferranti Thistle. When the Scottish leagues were restructured in the 1980s Ferranti Thistle applied to join but their Ground at the time was...

You're just setting yourself up for deserved ridicule when you lose a final at Wembley & have to make your way home dressed in padded fancy dress. It gives me much glee to think of that tool on public transport making his sad weary way home. Added mirth if he had to stand sweating holding back...

Not very impressive crowd control. Shambles. Expect fisticuffs

I think Stokes's agent put his name around a lot of Clubs but he's no spring chicken and, more importantly, brings a lot of baggage. Plus was cack at Sunderland Bloody hell 3-2. Awful set piece defending. It's not just us then
