    Wigan Athletic vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    Have you been taking stupid pills? It's not about being impressive, it's about the information Barnes had to go on when he was deciding whether or not to go. Burnley were top 2 for most of December, 1st for some of it, and 2nd for all of January prior to his move. So what happened at the end of...

    I agree. Yes we could have better defenders, but what we've got is about enough if we could also score goals. The board should look at our budget, and be prepared to spend all of it on strikers if necessary. If there's some left for the odd improvement elsewhere, so be it.

    Wigan Athletic vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    Feel free to correct my statements where they're wrong. My recollection is that most fans were disappointed that Murray left (although satisfied with his replacement) and a lot of fans (not sure if most or not) thought it was a reasonable decision to let Barnes go (ie, not increase his offer...

    For most of January Burnley were in the top two You said 'Barnes would have stayed if the club were willing to match what was offered by Burnley.' and then you said 'why move for less money', which is not the same. Maybe he was offered the same, and chose Burnley. I too stood up for Barnes...

    You've just moved the goalposts. A second ago you said he'd have stayed for the same money. And it would hardly be surprising if he wanted to move, knowing that Burnley were headed for the premier league. It shows one side of the story. We have no idea what figures were involved either. And why...

    I agree that the abuse he got was terrible, and obviously that's got nothing to do with TB etc. Maybe if you go on you'll eventually get something right. Ward wasn't our player, nor was Upson. Rodriguez wasn't good enough, Bridcutt and Buckley wanted out and we got decent money for them -...

    It seems that everyone says that Murray wanted to stay, and would have signed for a reasonable fee, so no, not like Murray. Letting Murray go is clearly our worst transfer decision in many a year.

    How would keeping him have helped the position we're in now? His contract was out, and he wasn't signing a new one. I don't dislike what you're saying, I just find it incredulous and naive in the extreme. TB invested before we built the Amex, we didn't have planning permission to build a smaller...

    I think we got a good price for Leo, and so I think we were right to take it. That money should be invested back, and we should benefit from his sale. If our owner was making a profit on us, like the Arsenal owners, I'd agree about player sales. But TB is losing a fortune on us, and he's...

    When a club in a higher division offers £10m for your striker, you have to take it. We got decent money for the others too. This season has been a disaster, but then I think we flattered ourselves last season, as I think Oscar did a very good job worth what he had. I'm sure TB is aware of how...

    So Tony Bloom, fan of the albion, who went to see them today, unlike most of us, does not deserve the fans we have, despite the fact that he's kept us alive and spent £200m on us. You're right, he deserves better.

    You're an idiot. Do you ever watch football? I bet you haven't seen us play once this season. How the hell are we supposed to score two goals when we don't have a striker capable of scoring one? And to add to all that, we're away from home, numbnuts. It's a wonder you even found this website...
