This New 'Special' Player

['sladegull]

Reid on Radio Sussex this morning saying he wanted to hang on to NOONE, doesnt seem so much like a done deal accordinging to him. If a pre-agreement deal signed what is the good of him playing it so cool.....

The special one is a striker who everyone with half a football brain will know. So that counts half of NSC out!! OHHH. As I said in an earlier thread, I think he's too special for us, but the fact we are looking is heartening. It's been said (maybe by Gus or that plank Naylor) he's not foreign. But personally I he is well out of our league at the moment and if he comes he will definately be a loan signing.

so you're saying you know who it is but won't tell?!?!

DAVE - STILL WAITING PAL

 

[The French Mistress]

Michael Owen.

Michael Owen.

Shhh

My money is on a premiership/ex premiership striker who for whatever reason Gus knows personally. A bit like the Micky Adams/Robbie Savage scenario.

So who could that be?

Zola out of retirement

 

[HG201]

Charlie Oatway? Perhaps he's getting a bit jealous of Tarrico and fancies a game himself!

 

[Sheebo]

Mr Burns seems to think he knows and Dave the Gaffer is deliberately not posting what he actually DOES know FFS

 

[SirDouglasLoft]

Kevin Phillips

 

[The Ringleader Returns!]

Zamora and Barnard were playing for Spurs at the same time as Poyet....


and so was Robbie Keane.

Luis Boa Morte............sssshhhhh!!!!!!!!

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

From what I've heard it's almost certainly Ginger Kittens, a camp bloke who used to play up front for Croydon Athletic in the late 70s and scored 54 goals in his first season

sssshhhh though!

Kevin Phillips

Is that the same one who played for Birmingham last weekend.

sladegul: Why would Peter Reid be on Radio Sussex and would you expect him to say yes you have signed him so I will not play him this week or Boxing Dayt.

Kevin Phillips

yeh something strange about the first link here: kevin phillips brighton - Google Search

i remember gus saying something like we were very close to the special signing but he never came, hence maybe why kevin phillips is linked to the brighton website and they removed it soon after
of course this could all be bollocks

Mystery solved! It's Nathan Ellington, very reliable source at watford.

Due back from Greece in January and they do not want him, we have had a loan offer till the end of the season accepted, we are just waiting on 'The Duke' who although willing to come is holding out for something better.

If we can pull this off forget the play offs people and get that Champers on ice

Yes it is bollocks, due to some nuances regarding the premium tv websites. There are a number of players you can google that appear in the results "connected" to the Albion.

The Duke would be an incredible signing, but I'm certain he could do better.

He's been bought for £150k, £1.2 million, £3 million (and £1) and £3.25 million.

His last few years in English football have not been the best of his career, but he appears to have done alright in Greece.

He's scored some fantastic goals against us and he would by all means be an unbelievable signing for any League One team.

Ginger Kittens anyone?
