Indeed, hence it's odd that people are still so negative. However, despite how creative the signings were, it seems that the Poyet years when many of them were made, were too expensive for the bean counters. It seems quite clear that the club now favours a more patient approach of signing...

Phillips was an exceptional professional, and no doubt fitter on the day he retired than a number of players in their twenties. Murray does seem to be of the same ilk.

I was very surprised that the previous policy at Brighton was to have a separate pot for wages and transfer budgets. With some creative deal making, it is possible to attract a player on higher wages if the transfer outlay is low or non existent. It is, after all the reason why you lost Murray...

Holloway's made a number of signings that would fare rather favorably in your squad. Some not so good, who have subsequently left, and Pulis signed Dann, Hennessey, Ledley and Ince, all of whom might stand a chance of sneaking a place in the Brighton squad. Add to this the likes of Speroni...

Much sensible stuff, except there is little point in hypothetically deducting the PL windfall, especially with regards to Pulis's transfer pot and the possibility of it turning Palace into the next Pompey. Even less point in applying a PL windfall to Brighton's. However, in the event that TP's...

The sad truth being that, even if he were to be given that sum, the respective accounts of our two clubs would probably point to Brighton being the ones nearer to going that route.

No doubt I'll be accused of bias, but the Palace fans on the BBS seemed far more enamoured with the football being served up by Pulis than the Brighton fans were with that being served up by their manager. Hard to say if Palace's PL players were also more satisfied than their Brighton...

Well, that's that then. He's as good as gone.

Very difficult to argue against Pulis being just like Redknapp, who repeatedly bankrupts and relegates clubs, leaving them in a far worse state than when he joined. Another classic insight from one of my favourite posters.

Agreed we should assume you will recruit a better striker rather than look at historical signings, despite the fact that the person in control of the player recruitment remains in place.

In a similar position to most in demand managers, however it doesn't really equate to the line 'assuming he's leaving', to which the poster you quote was replying.

Such as Leroy Lita and Jonathan Obika.
