I agree with St Louis, its not easy as getting a price, tell the player what you are paying re wages and he signs. The agents want to float the interest around hopefully to get another club interested, the selling clubs also want to do so.

I totally agree that we were better in the last few games as RM adapted tactics and style brilliantly. This give sme hope that he is pragmatic.

Remember this time last season, we missed out on Piroe who was going to fire Leeds to the PL at our expense? Didnt happen and whilst we have missed out on players, it doesnt mean they will set the league alight. I still wonder if Souza from Sheff Utd would be a good signing. I think he won more tackles and interceptions playing for a poor team

what were we then 5th or 6th best? Just because we beat Leeds last game of the season hardly makes us PL. We lost to Stoke the week before I think you will find, so then we may have been 15th best side. Point is we went up by winning the play off competition and were brilliant doing so, it doesnt paint over the fact that our squad was not PL standard and time will see how we get on. It was heartening that RM did seem to change his tactics and adapted well. Im not certain how we will fare, but fully aware we may have a miserable year, but also we may surprise a few people.

Truthfully we were the 4th best side in the Championship and won the play off. To improve that would need us t change loads of players toi improve never likely to happen

Think there is a problem between Howe and Fraser, who is wanting a pay off and Saints wanting him on a free.

It will be reading your posts Mickey lol .....only teasing

these quotes we hear year on year and so Im surprised that we are surprised lol

I suggest the player, Saints and his agent are not happy this info has been leaked! Financially Catastrophic for all concerned , notwithstanding the most important thing his health. I wonder who do our medicals , as if something like is missed and add to some other iffy signings!!!

did you watch him the other night, he was well off being any good to improve us. Tall Paul for me

Just more chaff, you reap what you sow

In a way it was like us signing Ronaldo as he was so high profile.

Im all for giving a good run, modern defenders wont like a big forward up against them. He gives a different dimension to our game. If RM could mould him into our system us fretting about a forward could diminish. I read just now that Ings is on 130k pw at WHU and they will let him g on a free, he has already turned up down apparently.

I think if you sit next to Glen you get a rebate on your ticket 😀

deleted the apparent RM bite at Blackmore as well

Its not really a problem as I dont usually listen out at the end. Yep always like to listen.

good luck to them, I personally dont rate him

shame my name name was not pronounced correctly lol

Their owner for one. They also had a better recruiting system and didnt throw away money when they sold prime assets. Very shrewd outfit

I recall Mane having pelters in the preseason and fans saying similar (I dont think we he is going to be a Mane btw)

Seems you weren't on after all! How do you put people on ignore? Asking for a friend 😀

who? Stewart

Brighton are seen as a good club now, how after decades of being a top tier club how we have let it slip. Mainly due to the selling club syndrome

I recall Defoes face after he was pushed into play for them. Once he was settled he was fine. Its all about money , none love the club in the main
