Yep, full squad lists must be submitted within 24 hours of the summer transfer window closing, which this year is on Wednesday 31 August.

For some strange reason I expect the 'away' end will be very quiet... http://www.espnfc.co.uk/blog/the-toe-poke/65/post/2914458/lazio-sell-just-11-season-tickets-on-first-day-of-sale-ahead-of-serie-a-campaign :whistle:

Off to Fulham on loan for the season according to The Sun https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/1470016/james-wilson-to-leave-manchester-united-for-fulham-as-jose-mourinho-begins-to-trim-squad/

Bit short sighted. There's a lot of potential left for JFC if he's played in his strongest position and given adequate game time - it's just he doesn't fit in at Brighton. Give it a couple of years and can see a club making a 5m bid for him, so hope club have built in a % sell-on clause of next...

Rhodes scored 6 goals for Boro in 18 appearances, during that same time span Hemed scored 11 for us. It's not about shelling out big fee's on a player, but instead should always be about finding the right player to do the job you need.

If we were going to get a Icelandic striker in, was hoping it'll be Alfreð Finnbogason. Similar age and a lot more used to playing against higher quality opposition.

Cool For Cats - Squeeze.

as is Goldson. Work in fact that Hughton likes a left footer on the left and it's only a short countdown until a rumour of a new player leaving starts.

Wouldn't be a massive surprise if David Nugent is now surplus to requirements at Boro, considering the calibre of player they are now trying to commute. Proven in Premiership and the last two clubs he's played for have been promote to Premiership, so knows how to be part of a successful side.

It's important to give youth a chance, both Sam Adekugbe and Tyler Forbes have both been brought into the reserves and both should be looked at as being the 3rd choice back up for each fullback slot. Not much point bringing players in and having an academy if there's not ever going to be...

If Burnley are interested it'll only be as a replacement for Michael Keane who is interesting Leicester so much that they have made a 15m move for him (allegedly). Would say Dunk is just as good, so would expect a significant fee even though Burnley are a club who hold the purse strings tightly.

Heskey? I heard from two people chatting who have no connection from the club that it was Francis Jeffers that we were in for that was around 6 years ago, so presumed they'd definitely be some traction on it by now.

For some reason I don't think a 37 year old centre back is the solution to the teams short term defensive problem. If club was to go down the 'free' transfer route would much rather it be for Joel Ekstrand or David Wheater,

From this time last year, yes but think both expectations and the quality of the teams that we will be competing against has also risen alongside. For Brighton there is still a lot of building to be done - when the new striker arrives, I feel a lot more people will be comfortable with launching...

This old interview with him suggests he's not afraid of getting forward to support the attack either. https://youtu.be/9V78vfSeLAc

Contract runs until 2018. Presume that he had a relegation wage drop clause built in to his contract, but even with that you'd presume that it'll be at the top of Brightons wage scale. Also little but surprised that some of the lower level Prem clubs like Palace and Burnley haven't made a move...

Fee is Undisclosed, but believed to be about £650k. At that figure fora 23 year old Welsh international it's probably a gamble worth taking.

Just signed for Barnsley. Scored 17 last season for Walsall so be interesting to see if he's going to be able to take the step up. Still hoping that they'll make a move for COG.

Stay Another Day - East 17

First time Partizan played in their new kit tonight, another Nike kit with the colour fade but that big white patch is horrendous.
