… both by the fans and the players. Simple question: will he be Brighton’s number 1 next season?

Exactly, the money is coming from Tony Bloom. The latest club accounts show negative reserves of £27.7m, with a debt owed to TB of £373m… sorry for reiterating this but both figure are important. The men’s team are where they are because of his investment. Full Stop. If he wants to put more...

I had a no dissimilar situation a few years ago with a staff member. My advice/ what I was given at the time: Makes sure you give them an opportunity to say their piece and recognise genuine issues that they have. I’d open discussions by hearing them out, it can make them feel heard but also...

Love the question and many others like it. As has been said, we will never know, but there’s now harm in speculating! The way I see it is there are quite a few ‘what ifs’ after that moment too from throughout the Dick Knight years- What if it had taken longer to get approval to play at...

I seem to remember the year after (2008/9) they played at Lewes on NYD in the national league and Ashley Barnes played and scored for Boro.

Not been the same player since that spell at Celtic. Such a shame, we could use that bit of steel at the back that he added at his best.

One of the things I really miss about being in the Football League is playing on Easter Monday. Always a good day out, with some great games down the years. The Premier League are missing a trick!

Fell for this hook, line and sinker. Went straight onto the BBC Sport app and quickly realised this was an April fools 😂👍

RDZ is what he is, like it or lump it. He has always spoken about honesty being important with his relationship with the club and the fans. He’s said here simply what is going on, not in a vindictive way or a critical way, actually sounds very respectful to me. But quite simply, if RDZ does...

Former Bristol City… CHEF! 👨‍🍳

What does this mean?

With Brighton playing Liverpool on Easter Sunday I wondered how common it was for Albion to play on this day? I remember playing Man United on Easter Sunday a few years ago, but don’t remember any otherwise. Any Albion historians have any other examples?
