    [Football] Reasonable punishment for the "Legacy Six" ?

    This sounds fair, but I wouldn’t put it past some of the clubs to use it as an opportunity to be able to play more games outside of Europe. Perez is still very much of the mind that he wants a Super League, and given way they’ve acted it wouldn’t be surprising if he used any ban as ammunition in...

    [Albion] Tammy Abraham could he be the answer?

    He’s believed to be on 88k a week currently at Chelsea, when they started talking about extending his contract last Sumner he wanted a wage that was 6 figures long. Well above what our wage ceiling currently is. Aston Villa, Leicester and West Ham are the clubs being linked and who we’d have to...

    Gerhard Struber, Valérien Ismaël or Steve Cooper.

    [Albion] A message to Tammy Abraham

    One of those lower league players we have probably been monitoring is Adam Armstrong at Blackburn.

    [Football] Wasted Talent.

    Gai Assulin - was touted as a wonder kid at Barcelona, turned into a journeyman and is now playing in Serie D.

    [Albion] Christos tzolis

    Potential replacement for Ali J? If we do sign him, we should adapt Pulp’s Common People to make a good chant. We haven’t got enough players with songs currently.

    [Football] Will Big Sam walk away from WBA ?

    Won’t be Big Sam, much more likely to be Southgate.

    Ahmed Musa

    We only named 23 players in our squad for the rest of the season, so we have space. Could only see Musa being a short term option to end of season though.

    [Football] Rafael Benítez

    I think we’ll stick with Potter for the foreseeable. Benitez doesn’t fit the mould of managers we tend to go for. Plus he was being paid £12m a year after tax in China. Can’t see us paying anywhere near that and he’ll have offers from far bigger clubs in next few months. Possibly chance to...

    [Albion] Maty Ryan joins Arsenal

    I seriously doubt that we will see Ryan again in a Brighton shirt. It was made clear that he wanted first team football so I’m a little surprised he’s gone to Arsenal as can’t see him dislodging Leno. Personally I think one of the main drivers for his exit and his dropping from our squads stems...

    [Albion] Moises Caicedo - New contract signed until summer 2027 with 1 year extra option.

    We’re being linked. 19 year old central midfielder very much in the Bissouma mould. Equador international. Currently playing for C.S.D. Independiente del Valle which is same club we got Billy Arce from.

    [Albion] Albion had four former scholars in their starting line-up today

    Significantly less so far. Orient show 300k total in their account from that year from players sales. We apparently paid less than 100k for Alzate, but wouldn’t be a surprise if there’s a sell on clause.

    [Football] What have the PAOK fans done to deserve this?

    [Albion] Emiliano Martinez

    Ryan’s contract has less than 2 years remaining and it is highly likely that we would have broached the subject of a new contract already. If talks are not going well, then you would expect club would look into getting a new number one in: either as a replacement or to make the point that the...
