hope not. He has become one of my favourite players. A true professional who seems very passionate about the game and always gives his all

I'd be gutted if he left. A fantastic player and a cracking lad............he can't sing though!

Cannot see noone moving sideways to another championship club, most likely outcome is he fulfils his potential with us and if he can improve his final ball then possibly lower half of prem in the next two years (could well be with us).

There aren't many players like nooney around as in how capable of going past his man like he does ! he would be a big loss don't like the sounds of this waiting for a better offer

Is there a quote relating to the waiting a better offer bit? Would be surprised if Poyet is entertaining the idea of letting him go

I would bite their hands off for £1m, yes he's great at beating his man but then what does he do afterwards?... Usually lose the ball or have a cross that doesn't beat the first man... If, and it's a BIG if, LuaLua and Buckley stay fit he'd be no more than a bench player anyway.

He's very good BUT if we're flying a flag to get him up to £1m or £2m it then gets interesting as to where you put him with Kaz & Buckley as all 3 ain't gonna start...I'd say the 3 we're our best players unfortunately in similar positions...think 3 great, similar goalkeepers, you'd move one on, wouldn't you??

Albion have turned down a bid from Championship rivals Cardiff City for Craig Noone.

The Welsh club are believed to have offered around £400,000 for the talented winger.

That falls way below the Seagulls’ valuation of a player they are determined to hold onto.

They are reluctant to sell Noone to another Championship club at any price.

Noone has become a key player for Albion since signing from Plymouth Argyle for £250,000 a year ago.

The 24-year-old Liverpudlian’s dribbling skills and weaving runs have turned him into a firm favourite with fans at The Amex.

Albion last night refused to confirm Cardiff’s interest in Noone. Managing director Ken Brown told The Argus: “We are not prepared to comment on transfer speculation."

Their stance is the same as it was during the 2011 January transfer window when Norwich, who like Cardiff were chasing promotion from the Championship, were knocked back in their persistent attempts to buy winger Elliott Bennett.

The Canaries eventually bought Bennett for £1.5 million in the summer, after they had secured promotion to the Premier League and he had helped Albion to the League One title.

Noone is sidelined from today’s FA Cup tie at home to Wrexham. He has been in Germany for treatment on a hamstring injury sustained in last Saturday’s defeat at Coventry.
