It's probably 2 or 3 potential signings/ trialist and they are duty bound not to announce they are Brighton players yet.

If they are trialists then we already know they are not Brighton players yet. Frankly I struggle to believe that we are harbouring such secret superstars-in-waiting who will destroy this hapless lower-league fodder in such a way as to blow our cover and bring Liverpool and Arsenal scurrying along to nab them before we can get pen to paper.

Its up there with players and managers holding their hands over their mouths when speaking, for fear of letting crucial state secrets tumble from their lips that everyone can read.

Football really does take itself WAY too seriously these days. I feel an eyeroll coming on.

Oh I agree Easy but it may have been a game for Potter to run his tactical eyes over certain players and the deals may depend (ultimately ) on his nod of approval. Weak argument I know but who knows what goes on behind closed doors. It certainly something the club don't want the public or the rest of the football world to know yet and maybe never.

GP at Fridays press conference:

Hack: "So Graham, what was the score against Pompey the other night ?"

As likely explanation as any. And further proof that these days, were it needed, that football has completely and utterly disappeared up its own arse.

If it's a training game any bookings or sending offs (which seldom happen in friendlies anyway) wouldn't count.
Although a Seville player did get a straight red card v Liverpool last night.

The irony of me clicking on that link to the paper - only to have a great big banner over it banning me from reading the article as I have an ad blocker (note to Bozza - NSC whitelisted obviously)

Gareth Bale has been authorized to use Reals chairmans private jet to get to Shoreham airport by 10am. Gibbo has been asked to pick him up and get him kitted up in time for kick off en route to HQ. If he performs well we may have signature and announcement by 6pm. ZIDANE wants it done by Tuesday and it was promised by Real hierarchy!
