I would agree with you it is hard to sign players when newly promoted. Despite any history you might have as a club, you are often bottom of the list of options for players (as Leeds may well find this summer despite the assumptions of their fans). In terms of the six players, are you including...

As has been pointed out a number of times here, you are wrong about transfer fees. We didn't spend £80 million this summer. And you underestimate how many players were brought in during Chris Hughton's time in charge. We brought in a lot of players across the first two seasons but he wasn't able...

We all know your agenda from previous posts so most of what you say can be ignored. However, I am going to question two of your points. Firstly, we didn't spend as much this summer as the previous two combined. We bought Izquierdo (who was a success until injury), Ryan, Propper, Locadia...

Totally agree. And this season has been a huge step forward in that. Assuming we stay up, we will have a progressive manager, some exciting young players and a manager/backroom team who can attract more young players like Lamptey. This is not to say we won't struggle next season, and a lot...

Are you sure about that goals for stat. We only scored 34 goals in total in first Premier League season. Even taken over 33 games, that is only an average of 1

Fair enough. It just seems odd to criticise transfer approach if you think that Hughton/Potter have no involvement. As you say, let's hope for more improvement next season.

Don't think you will find many Albion fans sharing your view. I (and I imagine many others) wanted to stay up with a bit more comfort, see a clear change in style of play and start to use some of our younger players. The last two have been achieved and the first one is looking very likely. Very...

I am pretty sure we were not the 10th biggest spenders in Europe last summer (just looked it up, we were 28th in Europe and 10th in Premier League last summer). I am sure I have seen that stat and it is based on net spend since we were promoted. You can hardly blame Potter for the previous two...

It's not the opinion that is the issue. People are entitled to their opinion. It is the sanctimonious nature of the comments. How dare Brighton want to do anything other than survive. They are lucky to be here. And this after many of them had spent the season criticising our tactics. I am...

Agree completely. And the irony was many of the pundits criticising the club for changing manager were the same ones having a go at our playing style for much of last season.
