    [Albion] Matt O Riley [26/08/24 - sings on a 5-year deal]

    Exactly the type of signing we need to make but I’d question our timing here. Widely reported that he’s on Chelsea’s radar and we make our move just as they bank another £35m HGP profit. Can see this being hijacked.

    [Albion] Pre season Mojo

    5 for me. Managers a gamble but early signs from friendly’s are promising enough. Looks like we’ve done well strengthening in attack but have stood still or gone backwards in other areas.

    [Albion] The 2024-25 Pre-Season Friendly Thread - First team, U-21s and U-18s

    Was at today’s U21’s game against Brentford which finished 2-0 to Albion after we forced home a 2nd with the last kick of the game. Many bright prospects coming through but Chouchane, Duffus and Gulzar stood out for me. Chouchane in particular looks ready for a development loan into 1st team...

    [Albion] Hürzeler’s (Brighton) Tactics

    Early days but clearly looking to transition with pace and more players flooding forward. Looks like wingback quality and athleticism will be key so hoping for further business on the right hand side.

    [Albion] Supercup NI BHA v Armagh

    Pens underway. We seemed to be stubbornly baiting the press De-Zerbi style but had limited success in breaking through. Our captain looks a prospect and some tidy play elsewhere too.

    [Albion] Japan pre season

    Strong showing from all involved considering the climate and the oppositions fitness levels. Barco and Minteh both really impressed and you can instantly see that Yalcouye is a natural talent. Tactically, a little concerned that we will require more pace in central defense and can see our...

    [Albion] Napoli interested in Billy Gilmour **Sold 30/08/24**

    WBG is a fine player but I’d imagine we’d have to seriously consider offers of around £30m. Two years remaining on his contract and possibly some doubt on his role next season. Could be the right time to sell.

    [Football] To all the Southgate haters / wrong again and again and again **SOUTHGATE NOW RESIGNED**

    No shame in losing to this Spain side. That said it’s beyond obvious that he’s a rigid, cautious manager and totally out of depth tactically. Even against modest opposition he’s been fortunate that key players had decisive moments that enabled him to mask his shortcomings. Forget about today...

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - Trump v Harris

    No way he will survive this. Hopefully it’s swift and he can retain some dignity.

    [Albion] Ferdi Kadioglu **Singed 27/08/24**

    Would likely be differentiated with an improved payment schedule of the fee and a sell on.

    [Albion] Malick Yalcouye **Singed 12/07/2024**

    Exciting prospect but surely a loan beckons.

    [Albion] The gigantic squad - who is leaving?

    I’d guess Osman will avoid a loan as he’s likely the most versatile of the wing options and has shown promise when playing as a 9. Looking at the numbers it seems we will loan or sell a fair few of the midfield options and likely replace with at least 1 first team ready signing. Bringing in a...

    [Albion] All the good ones are taken... or are they?

    Wouldn’t be too surprised if we are also looking at some of the higher profile assistant coaches with aspirations of stepping up. Carlos Cuesta at Arsenal and David Ancellotti are 2 being linked with other vacancies.

    [Travel] Rome - where are you staying

    Hotel Le Petit. Near to the main Termini station and a Metro. Looks a reasonably priced option with various twin and triple rooms.

    [Albion] Ibrahim Osman **Loaned To Feyenoord 15/08/24**

    Looks nowhere near the finished article but clearly offers elite level pace and the ability to press with great intensity. Would guess he’s got every chance of coming straight into the first team squad for next season.

    [Albion] Luton Town vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Player Ratings ***

    Utterly dreadful team performance from the 1st to 90th minute. Only Baleba and Van Hecke put in performances of a reasonable standard. I don’t know where to start with the rest but fair play to Luton who impressed throughout.

    [Albion] Marseille v Albion ticketing - allocation and priority windows etc

    I appreciate it’s a new experience for the club (and supporters) but I’m interested to see if we handle the process differently if we advance or qualify again in future seasons. The gaps between buying windows made it difficult for groups or family’s with different loyalty point levels to feel...

    [Albion] Marseille v Albion ticketing - allocation and priority windows etc

    Only way this sells out is by officially removing the pre-registration dependency and going down to purchase history.

    [Albion] Marseille v Albion ticketing - allocation and priority windows etc

    Flying out 06:50 Thursday morning from Heathrow with a connect in Brussels. Landing in Marseille @ 12:45 local time so hoping to have tickets and a beer in hand by about 2pm.

    [Albion] Marseille v Albion ticketing - allocation and priority windows etc

    Can see them opening this up to people who didn’t pre-register after the last window.
