Inigo Calderon

[dougdeep]

It would be really great if he could transition into a coaching role at the club

What's your first language?

 

[Seagull on the wing]

Probably the nicest footballer I have ever spoken to....well mannered and articulate.
If he played CF he would not disgace himself....and get goals.....Well done Calde..

 

[chrissyboy01]

Well you've rewritten history there, when was he behind Painter and Mattock? Left backs, the pair of them. He has only been ousted briefly by Jara and infrequently by a fit Bruno. He played well today, bit Bolton are shi... poor standard.

This all day long

 

[finlaych]

Everyone loves Calde

 

[Acker79]

Why mention left backs then? Why not mention Navarro, or Sparrow? Very bizarre.

Because that's childish, apparently.

 

[Sergei's Celebration]

He brings so much more to the club as well, building in his degree and using that to support, teach and aid some of the AITC courses, helping the other Spanish players settle in when they arrived and much more.

A real gent to speak to and loves the club and appreciates the fans.

Oh and he can play.

well on his way of becoming a ledge

 

[Jesus Gul]

Does he still drive a rather odd Chrysler 300 estate?

 

[W.C.]

I like the way he goes 'Pffffffffffffffttttt' in that very Spanish way in interviews

 

[The_Real_SussexSeagull123]

Nicely done!

 

[Pevenseagull]

My favourite player of the last 5 years.

From the limited information I have from people who work for the club he is a gentleman of the highest order.

I bloody well love the guy.

At a guess he's scored or been involved in 5 of the best 10 goals we've scored in the last 3 years.


He's smashing

 

[Napper]

Few assists from him now as well. Playing his best football after looking shaky when we first moved up a division.

 

[BBassic]

I got a photo taken with him a few years ago after the last game at the Withdean. Great player and a great bloke as well. Genuinely loves the club and the community as well. I would love for him to see out his playing days here and to stay on with the club in a coaching or ambassadorial role.

 

[Mellotron]

I'd be SHOCKED if he left the club when he retired and never returned in any capacity.

 

[severnside gull]

Spoke to Calde's wife after the game - he is very appreciative of the fans and of the club because they allow him to do more than just play

 

[The Large One]

I've probably bored for England when I've mentioned this, but I'm going to say it again anyway...

The show we did with Calderon, and the time before and after the recording (on the weekend of the 3-0 Palace home match) was one of the most pleasurable times I've had this year. For those who say, "I've been told he's a lovely bloke...", that's an understatement. He's a gentleman, he's intelligent, articulate, quick-witted, committed, a 'beeg keed', and someone is (as Dick Knight would say)... very Brighton. As this from someone doing the show using his third language.

Gotta love that fella.

Edit: After that Palace match, wasn't Calde doing a love-filled, ecstatic holler to the crowd? Someone remind me...

 

[Sam Ovett]

I think it's his 150th appearance for us (in all competitions) when he next plays

 

[severnside gull]

Playing so well........ wonder if we might see Bruno pushed forward into midfield (pretty sure he has played there for Valencia) as can't see him getting in ahead of Calde at the moment

 

[Leighgull]

He was totally owned by Zaha in the PO and is often yellow carded for stupid challenges but he's a busy and industrious player who always gives 100%. For that, I like him.
