Personally, I'd rather we spent the money on new contracts for Caicedo, Mitoma, Solly, Big Bob, Evan etc and continue to bring youngsters through the way we have been. I would make an exception and spend a few quid on Colwill though, if he was up for it :wink:
We've had him between the ages of 24 and 28 which could be argued are his prime years (I can't see him getting a lot better now). So it's not as if we are losing him at the first opportunity :shrug:
And we still have AliMac, Mitoma, Pervs, Big Bob, Solly, Webster all in their prime and have...
It does put what we are doing into perspective. Thanks for the good times Tross, there were some sublime moments :bigwave:
But Bovvered ? Onwards and Upwards :albion2:
I've got a funny feeling that he'll be back. If he's sensible. we suit him, he suits us (if he pulls his finger out) and he's not going to do better elsewhere :shrug:
If he does come back, I really wouldn't be surprised if he signs a new contract.
Exactly. I didn't boo because I hated them. I booed because it was absolutely hilarious and knocked their confidence. But mainly because it was funny :thumbsup:
I think the club/RDZ have handled the situation perfectly.
I guess we'll know which of us is right in a couple of weeks :wink:
The idea that a club like Brighton would send RDZ out to a press conference without a complete agreed briefing of exactly what message to put across and the likely...
Tross thought he would have a wonderful world cup and come back to the big clubs clamouring for him.
He gets back having had a shit world cup and sulks, not training well.
We extend his contract, he sulks more
Mitoma and Ferguson are storming training and Tross sulks more.
Gets bought on against...
I think that is because he is backed by PB who in turn, is backed by TB, who in turn is backed by me and 99% of all the other ST holders at the Amex (and so on, and so on)
As they say, Football is an easy game when you're all on the same side going in the same direction :wink:
The sad thing is that he has the skills to have played every game for the Albion but not, apparently, the ability to apply himself. Just another naturally talented player who, for whatever reasons, never maximised their inherent ability.
Let's just hope we get a few quid despite his and his...
But here's the crunch. Even before this week's story, which of the 'Big six' will really sign someone to sit on their bench and make the occasional foray ?
Sadly, I think Villa/Sham/Everton are more realistic with associated valuation :shrug:
When a business is really well run, mistakes, leaks and misinterpretations never happen 'by accident'. And everyone in football knows how well Brighton is run.
As has been stated in many a movie, and as Leo's agent is learning, but not quickly enough 'It's like going to a gunfight with a...
Sadly, I do think that Leo is probably one of the most skillful players I have seen at the Albion in 50+ years.
Even more sadly (particularly for Leo), he is only a part of what is DEFINITELY the strongest Albion squad ever.
:bigwave:
And a tip for Leo. With what you're paying you really...
I can't believe that Leo looked at that completely illogical explanation from his agent and thought, 'Yep, that will certainly get me what I want - put it out' :dunce:
