Yes, this is how I see it too. I know he has been very stoutly defended on here, with links to some of his purple prose about Brighton - but when he's talking to The Albion Roar or BBC Sussex, yes, he is going to talk about his time at Brighton, and about the club now. It's called 'answering...
Must admit I'd really like to know why he seems to have airbrushed his four years at The Goldstone out of his memory. Always appreciated down here, and his departure was not acrimonious. He got a dream move to the best team in the land, and we got a fair price.
