Yes, thanks. I know that. Hence my comment about "now". I also remember hen he left us describing Brighton as a "special place" -he sounded genuine enough, and I hope that his work for the Albion is rewarding for him -and us!
I can't recall that but do remember GG saying some time after he joined that he had not realised how big the club was in terms of potential (then) support. I am sure that he does now!
