Apologies to you too.

Speaking of the boyfriend... I kid, I kid. "Unnecessarily giving it the big one" - It's the nature of being football fan to have a bit of banter. I appreciate that nerves are probably a bit raw on here, so I'll do the gentlemanly thing and not attempt to wind you up. I'm sure the next day or...

How can you judge the strength of feeling behind a transfer request? It's basically him saying that he wants to leave. No need for ellaboration.

Hilarious quip, did your boyfriend tell you that one? :)

Why bother over a couple of little teams like Norwich and Brighton? It's hardly going to pull in the punters to buy their copy. I'm afraid for you it's probably true. As Charlie said, if the player wants to go and a club is interested, then it usually only ends up one way, but then as your fans...

Because the Sun journo is likely to create a story to give false hope of a signing to fans of his own club?

Blimey, Brighton fans pretending to be Norwich fans! Whatever next! I think there are still things bubbling under in this partigular saga, otherwise Lambert would have conceded defeat in that recent interview. Regardless of the actions of other Norwich fans, the club have acted exactly as...

I'm not going to begrudge you it, but without your chairman where exactly would you be? I think most clubs would be able to do something pretty special with an injection of nigh-on £100m, alas we're not all in such a privileged position. I would have hoped that, coming from a club in the...

Ah I see, so it was worth £24m at the time.

Well those figures would value the club at £625m... But then I would assume there's nothing to stop your chairman buying shares for above the market rate?! (I'm no stockbroker!)

So 16% of BHAFC is worth 100m? That's some Dragon's Den calculations right there... :) Fair play to him though, those are some expensive shares!

And you.

Thank you for proving my point... Your fellow Seagull was criticising us for exploiting the profits of one of our benefactors as though it was some sort of bad thing?!

And I suppose it was your clubs enormous profits that paid for this shiny new stadium of yours? :)

All true, aside from your chairman actually said he doesn't "intend or need to" sell, there was no unequivaocal "we won't sell" though, I'm afraid.

Yeah Surman is injured, he's tweaked his knee twice (the second time because we had to hurry him back). However, he's looked a class act when he has been involved. The thought of a midfield containing Surman, Hoolahan and Bennett does cause something of a tent in my trousers, I must confess...

Does this qualify as a negotiation then?

7 figures, my friend!

For a bit of context, we (Norwich) signed Andrew Surman in the close season for £1.2m, who is arguably a more established player than Elliott Bennett. It will be interesting to see the outcome of this saga... Both clubs are in a similar scenario, both looking to push on and seek promotion...

Norwich fan here... I like your positive attitude, but as a club you need to find 15000 more fans that are going to part with their hard earned money on a weekly basis if you're going to be comparable in size to us. I hope for your sake that your new stadium has a bit more soul to it than a...
