Was just passing by as I have a soft spot for you lot and saw that you were chatting about our signings, so thought that you might appreciate some input from our side too.

ReallyOn a 32 page thread about Huddersfield's signings, you want to criticise a Huddersfield fan for offering their view?

It's bizarre, I've seen the argument that Huddersfield getting their business done early let's their team "gel".
Somewhat ignoring the fact our team has been "gelling" for 12 months and we finished above them....so we had a better team. We had NO loan signings in out starting team last year.
Huddersfield had FIVE. That's five players down before you even begin. No wonder they have signed people quickly.
In fairness, it was less a criticism, more a question. I really don't care what Huddersfield think of our signings so I'm struggling to understand why he'd want to post on a Brighton forum so much.
It's a thread specifically about their signings, 30 odd pages long. Seems to be sparking a bit of interest with our own fans?
You would surely expect Hudds fans to come on here and defend their corner after some of the ludicrous statements put about such as "they are just catching up to where they were last season" after signing 10+ players. They caught up to where they were after signing Palmer, Mooy and Ince and have improved thereafter.
"Preparing for the Championship" is another one, a statement often directed at us since promotion from condescending PL non-fans, yet we think it's ok to pass it onto them despite our transfer activity being pretty barren lately.
I'm not in any sort of panic with our own business, more of a mild concern. However, this comparison to other clubs and how many they've brought in annoys me, most of them already have very good squads. Ours is thin and lacking in some quality additions. Also don't forget that one of our 2 signings, and the large part of our total spending, was to replace a player who left on a free.

Their entire enlarged squad will have a full pre season together.
Whereas the say five first team quality players we still need, might not be with us until approaching the 1st September. Giving Wagner almost a two months head start in coaching, fitness, etc.
The catching up to their team last season is a valid point as they had five loanees at the end of the season
I'll leave you with this:
Burnley signed 5 players last summer I believe. Only 2 were starters. Stayed up
Middlesborough signed 11 players. Built a new team. Players like Negredo, Valdes, De Roon, Fischer, Traore, Fabio, Barragan, Chambers - Went down.
Chill out, yeah?
Burnley were in the PL the year before.
QUE?
