Doesn't make huge sense. Why would we sell Bridcutt and Barnes (allegedly) on the eve of appointing a new manager? Surely the new boss would want to cast his eye over them both. If they are that marketable then even a few days would not make much difference? Plus a new manager might see them as being pivotal in a squad with ambitions for promotion.
I suppose most of the £5m from their sale ought to find its way into the new managers transfer budget (after offsetting any compo to GP) and would come in very handy but it would be very sad to offload two important players. Would we necessarily get 2 better players for that money? I think Bridders in particular is pivotal to maintaining our momentum.
Personally I hope we are more focused on strengthening the squad not weakening it, any spare cash should be saved up for known areas of need ie left back, CB etc.
If OGJ is the new manager I quietly hope he will still be given enough budget to bring in some bargains from abroad, rather than get ripped off in the domestic transfer market.

You might, I doubt the club would.

I agree.
LB still has 2 years on his contract (I believe) so can't imagine we would sell him for that fee. More likely scenario would be that we say you stay, and if we don't go up next season, you can move on then.
I really cant see that we would get, what, £1.5 / £2m for AB but Hey Ho if that was the going rate then who am I to suggest otherwise !

Not so sure as it would represent good business, buy cheap and sell on at a profit without weakening the squad too much. That is assuming CMS and Hoskins are expected to regain full fitness.
We currently have 13 fit outfield players, no way would we sell any just yet IMO

Surely one of the attractions of OGJ as a managerial candidate is that he would get us better value in the transfer market abroad?
Sherwood might be a decent candidate and have the benefit of knowledge of the domestic game but this would be offset by inflated transfer fees. an interesting conundrum.

You are right obviously, being an expert on all things Brighton. Do us all a favour and fu*k off you twisted bell end.Seagull over Canaryland

Bridder's talents would be wasted under Holloway. Anyway with all that Prem money surely they'll be aiming much higher i.e. Busquets or Iniesta, anything less is admitting defeat and not fit to grace Selhurst.

8M and 3.5M and TB would still likely tell them where to go so how anybody could believe that is laughable
Well the first part of this rumour has become true, lets see if we get Oscar tomorrow
