Christ embedding tweets is hard work...
From White's perspective he's probably doing a great job. The kids becoming famous without having kicked a ball in the premier league. Featured in the BBCs outside chances for the euros article today. Interest drummed up from the biggest clubs in England and even overseas. His name in all the...
No, it's not life or death for him, certainly. He's professional with the right character and temperament and the ambition to succeed at the very highest level. Its not like he's stuck in the championship a la Mooy this time last year, he knows he's in good hands.
Anyone ever heard of a young...
Why did he buy a house here? Because he's a Brighton player and staying at Brighton this season, and he's known that for a long time. Doesn't change the point that I think he would have welcomed being sold to Leeds (and doesn't change the point that I am sure he will be 100% committed to...
Do I have to repost my epic text on the matter for a third time? Took me ages to write :lolol:
Here's the highlights ;) I think my full post is worth a read though, which argues what we all know, why we are sure he will ultimately find Brighton an even better place to be...
Away fans are always tolerated if they don't get abusive and stick to threads about their club. This guy did nothing wrong on here other than dare to defend his club on a thread with hundreds of posts battering it.
Plus, evidence or not, I'd have a bet with anyone on here that he's correct and...
Banned for being repetitive? I think you could kick off half of the board then. People aren't banned for constantly saying Stephens only passes sideways and backwards, despite the evidence that this isn't true.
This and the bear pit, NSC has got to 'effin precious.
Banned? Oh that's a shame, I like having oppo fans on here. Thought banning them for having contrary opinions was the kind of thing Waccoe did, and we laugh at them for that. Who's decision was this?
I also think Leeds will stay up, for all our fun right now, Bielsa is a good coach and whilst their fans might be banging on about their amazing style of play and how they're going to smash the Prem , Bielsa won't be an idiot like all of them.
I reckon he'll have a similar season to Newcastle...
You've said this a lot, and for the sake of brevity and perhaps stopping this argument going round and round and round, I am more than happy to agree with you. I think he would be delighted to go. But I also think he will be excited to stay.
To expand, I'll repost something that I wrote a week...
This is my favourite one so far :

"There’s a refreshing modesty & humility about Ben which is a perfect fit for Bielsas Leeds"
:lolol:
This is one of the funnier threads on here in a while, and certainly beats the monotonous 'player x is too shit for Brighton so let's get rid' threads.
At its core, football supporting is just panto, don't take it too seriously
Sheffield set out this season with an aim to stay up. They played it tight, stymied the oppositions style of play, got some luck and developed a belief and a confidence as a unit that saw them over-achieve everyone's expectations. Fair play.
They have a style built around counter-attacking the...
I like the phrase 'Football is Suffering', I think you're right that we should be looking at it through that prism. We Brighton fans have experienced a suffering far greater than a bad 3-0 home defeat, and in many ways it defines us, but at the same time we fought to save our club just so we...
