You are Mark McGhee. Assuming Sugarboy Malingo signs and we have enough money for the wages of 1 more player after that, which position would you strengthen? Personally, I think the midfield needs attention - probably wide as a priority.
Reading today's Argus report of the Woking game, you would have thought we'd signed Thierry Henry, Wayne Rooney and Michael Owen on trial. Their assessment of our trialists' performances at Woking is way OTT. Sure they did some good things, but they also did some not very good things - and it...
Sports Argus says Coppell "is still held in high esteem by Seagulls supporters".
I don't think that's true. Some of us never particularly liked the bloke and suspected he'd probably leave at the first opportunity. I'm sure he went down in the opinion of many others when he jumped ship...
The Sports Argus says the club has appointed John Keeley full-time goalkeeping coach. This means we now have SIX full-time coaching staff - McGhee, Booker, White, Hinshelwood, Wilkins and Keeley. Does anyone else agree that SIX - yes, that is SIX - is a luxury we can't really afford in our...
Argus today: "Chris Iwelumo was absent again from pre-season training yesterday, heightening fears he will sign for Doncaster or Wimbledon instead."
"Heightening fears" :ohmy: More like "raising hopes" surely. The sooner Iwelumo pisses off, the better.
The Stoke match has been moved forward a day because the council won't allow us to play any home games on Saturdays in December. Why, then, is the Rotherham home game still scheduled for Saturday, 4th December? Or have I missed something?
Today's Argus says Oatway has been offered a new contract and strongly implies he would otherwise have been out of contract.
I thought he still had 1 year left on the misplaced-loyalty deal that Dick Knight gave him during the summer-with-no-manager. If that is wrong and his contract is now up...
(Q1) Which happened first - Albion winning the Charity Shield, the Titanic sinking or World War I starting?
(Q2) "It is intolerable having a situation where properties valued at more than £50,000 are so close." Which director said this of Albion's ground, seemingly supporting the nimbys?
(Q3)...
Quote from McGhee in today's Argus: "I'm starting to have in my mind who the best 11 or 13 are."
So will we be trying 4-5-3 on Saturday? Can't believe no one thought of that earlier.
