It just doesn't make sense. Go and talk to Palace - yes. Tell Brighton you've been offered more and ask them to match it - yes. But reject the Brighton offer, putting noses out of joint, before going to Palace to see if you like it? - no. You could do all the negotiating and even go to Palace...
Really? Well I guess you know more about these things than me.
I'm sure you're right.
I've already done a little shoulder shuffle.
It's a bit weird isn't it. Sensible Palace posters here until we lose our next game, then the rest will be back to laugh.
Not too ambitious then. By the time he goes it might even be a step down.
Although Palace were willing to pay a couple of grand a week more than we were prepared to pay, I don't think they were breaking the bank.
Oh don't say that. You'll have this board dancing for joy. Is that really what you...
He doesn't want another job now, he wants to stay. Is it Zaha's ambition to play out his career at Palace - don't be daft. But does that mean no one wants him in the team?
We'll obviously never know, but it's fair to say that a very large majority of Brighton fans would disagree with you, and Brighton fans obviously know a lot more about what Gus has done than you do.
Some people don't like that he's leaving for money, others don't think he's that good. Different people with different views, shocking.
What new fans? There were plenty before our ground was sold, but we couldn't exactly fit over 20,000 in the Withdean.

Don't gay bash too much, you...
At the end of the day (I'm practising for a tv appearance) he's going to get paid good money for the next 6 years, and he needs to make enough to pay for his family for the next 50 years, so to his family it is just another job.
You're a football fan and you have every right to be unreasonable...
Sure he might be dead to you, you don't need to send him a christmas card, but IF palace were to offer him £150k more than anyone else, it would be pretty difficult for him to turn it down. You have kids, imagine trying to explain it to your wife:
'honey, I've been offered an extra £150k to play...
