What would constitute an illegal approach?

Offering terms before agreeing a price with the club.

Or Blackmail.

Or Kidnapping.

Sounds like it's down to the player to make a decision. If you were offered better money elsewhere, what would you do?

Yes. 2+2=4 here. That can be the only plausible reason for an unashamed public statement like that.

All depends on how much he'll play. With us he'd be gareenteed regular football whereas Norwich are appeasing their fans.

It's like the old Norfolk saying:

Albion are well know for keeping their transfer activity close to their chests.

This includes any fee paid for a player.

When a deal is nearing completion the club will send out a press release usually embargoed for a few hours. And for good reason.

Agree with you on this, the next thing we may see is a picture with Pritchard in an Albion shirt.

How would you know about the press release? Are you tapping into Bozza's email account?

A sweeping dismissive judgement of 200,000 people.

Norwich is very like Brighton culturally. Interesting history (once the largest city in the country) and splendid architecture (until some of the 60s planners started pissing around). Respected football club with a local fanbase. All in all, a good place to live. Decent supporters too.
