    Maybe - if it was after one of his stupid sending offs

    What I try to gain from these photos is ''Who sits alongside who on a plane journey'' Gives you an idea of who is friends with who''. If you go on holiday in a group you tend to sit next to or close to the one you get on best with or at least within speaking distance to..............I got...

    All 100% correct in terms of loyalty. Not only that. Fans are sometimes not even loyal from one week to the next. Look at last year, fans were raving about how wonderful Stockdale and Skalack were when Stockdale was making great saves and Skalak was whipping in crosses that players were...

    I did and right up until about 8pm I thought we would have managed it but sadly we didn't. We did try hard though. I was never 100% sure on any of it but I was fairly confident on it but like anything in life nothing is 100% certain

    It is possible to get a percentage of any Transfer Fee written into any new contract as well which could be in conjunction with an increased salary for 9 months so all these things are up for negotiation because that would ensure we got a fee as well. When you deal with these players and...

    Sits around and waits for Ben's Grandad to scout and recommend left backs for him to sign

    If you read my posts through all of this thread, I have tried to tell you all without coming out and openly saying it ''That he would not be leaving in this transfer window'' I have also been saying that I don't think he will be leaving in January either. I still think that once the lad gets...

    It was too soon. If he had waited a day or two I am sure he would have said something along the lines of. ''Although I am disappointed about not getting a move. I am here, I am a Brighton player and whilst I am here I will give 100% to the cause of trying to get Brighton promoted and fulfilling...

    Our stance was always ''no sale'' I think the lad maybe thought or was advised by his Agent we were possibly just looking to drive the price up but he knew we didn't want to let him go. He knew how important we thought he was to this season. Like I said in other posts. In a few days Dale wont...

    I totally agree it will depend on how he knuckles down and performs on the pitch and you are correct it is easier for me to be more measured in my response because I have known the situation for a while. That's what I mean about having time to be accepting of the situation allows you to produce...

    I agree that the ''tone is disappointing'' but I don't find it disrespectful. The lad is obviously still hurting about not getting the opportunity to play Premiership football here and now. I am glad he has come out and said something but he should have waited a few days or so until his...

    The same Villa who have won I think only one game so far and the same Norwich who got slaughtered 3-0 by Birmingham at the weekend ?

    I don't think you can start comparing Dale's actions to Beram's - Beram did not have options on the table like Dale did. You have to accept that football is a different business, to any other. People get bought and sold for money. Sport is the only industry where this happens and it has...

    Rather than ''petty'' - I think as I stated above, he has honoured a promise to the fans and the Manager. I find that ''honourable'' rather than ''petty''

    Plan C (if there was one) wouldn't have been any worse than the fake ''so called certain signings'' named on here of Russell Martin and Lee Gregory. I am still keeping the faith until around 8pm. If nothing starts to break by then, well it probably isn't going to happen

    I have no idea who plan B was but it was probably running in conjunction with plan A - So **** knows what happened to plan B

    I would go down another route and be thinking.............Maybe the player involved didn't see Brighton as a big enough fish. Maybe the player or players we were after were looking at are or were being courted by bigger clubs than Brighton
Albion and Premier League latest from Sky Sports
