£8.5m for AJ. Nice bit of cash that. When did Brighton ever sell a player for anything worth putting in the press?
Souness may not be exactly popular, but he is a higher profile manager than you lot could dream of attracting.

Go ahead. I can only talk from personal point of view. It hurts, but it ain't all that. Now 5-0 - that would have hurt like hell. 1-0 is obviously gutting as you are our rivals, but its not going to stick in memory for long (again, not like 5-0).

Can't argue with that. I am intrigued to known though if when BHA finally get their stadium (I can't believe you won't) and can have a decent home crowd and enough tickets, if the away following will remain as good ... ?
Believe it or not, (even after last night) I prefer the football in the Championship. Teams attack each other, and there is a certain amount of the 'physical' side. There is plenty of talent, and many players who have come through their own club's academy. the fans are more passionate and...
I posted this on Brighton Rock's thread but feck it I'll put it here too ...
Hi all :wave:
Not got much time today, but felt it only fair to come on here and say congratulations to you all. We were outplayed, outsung, and you fully deserved the win.
Obviously I'm gutted, but suffice to say -...

Obviously I'm gutted, but would also like to say fair play to your fans. After the goal went in you goaded us for only...
