    New LB from Premier League Club - Joe Bennett Signs

    you have just completely killed my buzz, it is a scarily realistic prediction given our prior interest and him being at the fringes of the team

    Paddy McCourt

    at first i was cynical about this potential transfer as he has been touted as inconsistent and a bit of an enigma, the fact is if he can throw up something surprising and different than that is an attribute that none of our current stock possess.

    This team will go down as it stands. Some people need to wake up.

    we are playing currently like Poyet on his worst day, it is literally like we have the bad part of Poyet football. The squad has weaknesses but is not that poor as some of our competitors as Garcia showed us last season, does Hyypia lack a philosophy that isn't just copy what previous coaches...

    Birmingham City V Brighton and Hove Albion **** Official Match Thread****

    if blackpool and huddersfield can grab a goal surely we can notch one, perhaps putting an actual midfielder on instead of Bruno might improve things.

    Tom Pope - Port Vale. Got to be worth a punt

    he is 29 later this month, barely had one half decent season in league one, would be a complete waste of money as COG and CMS have far better records.

    Jesse Lingard.....

    he is starting as rwb. it will be interesting to see how he does, certainly deserves a crack at the first team.

    Eagles, McCourt, Etherington, Baldock, Wallace, Becchio.

    the way people talk about Becchio makes me wonder if anyone has ever actually watched him play. He was very one dimensional, usually scoring a tap in or header, and scored so many goals because of Leed's one plan that involved attacking relentlessly at the complete sacrifice of any defensive...

    New Naylor Tweet

    that would be a dream, still somehow without a club but surely off to the Premiership?

    Post your thoughts...

    i am conducting my own personal race, will i complete my masters dissertation before we sign another player? it isn't really a fair contest as my deadline is August 27th and theirs is September 1st, and they certainly have more of a night before jobbie attitude.

    I was on the fence until Ward ...

    It would certainly be an interesting question although i am not sure he would possess the offensive qualities we favour in a left-back. i would rather see Chicksen in the line-up than Calderon however, we should endeavour to play players in their right position and he has been decent enough when...

    I was on the fence until Ward ...

    Dunk isn't a starter for us, i sincerely hope we make him a fixture each week to try and overcome his stagnation that was a result of Poyet's ineptitude when it came to youth players.

    I was on the fence until Ward ...

    Ward is 28 (about to turn 29) and if he is willing to pull a stunt like he did today then sod him. i had personally hoped we would go for someone younger, as Ward, Dunk, Hughes and Bruno will all have to be replaced if we were to get promoted, you cannot go up with this old defence.

    What is going on at our football club?.........

    even without additions, which i am sure we ill receive, our team is still stronger than half the teams in this league and we have some great young players coming through who will be geared up to play a significant part this season. With Greer as captain i do not believe we will witness a...

    Transfers, schmansfers: let's distract ourselves momentarily

    you could just have Von Bin Laden, bit of German culture thrown in and wasn't he some sort of royalty or nobility so it works.

    Solly March - Southampton

    But what do they say about enough monkeys with enough keyboards, one of them has to be true… or maybe people just crave attention.

    Do Albion sell at the right time ?

    In terms of our high profile transfers they have left when it is advantageous. Ulloa for 8 million (2 more from add ons) is a great bit of money and many people on here had previously said 5 million would have been a good amount. Bridcutt went for 2.5/3 which is fair considering his form was...

    Dunky first professional goal tonight...worth a thread of its own

    It is good to hear a positive assessment of Dunk, like you said he was great in 2011/12 and whilst he made a couple of notable errors this was minimal considering his age, there was a reason big premiership clubs were circling. Whilst Poyet did wonders for us i did resent the fact that he...

    Dunky first professional goal tonight...worth a thread of its own

    That would make more sense but i was still under the impression that he was signed by Monaco as an offensive player.

    sorry what? Henry did not play in defence for either Monaco, Juventus or France internationally prior to his arrival at Arsenal...

    Dunky first professional goal tonight...worth a thread of its own

    Sadly i think you are right. personally i feel that if we are not capable of challenging for the play-offs as it currently seems, we should place an emphasis on developing our young players for a push next year as it will provide essential match fitness, personal development and help them gel as...
