Agreed, some fans are never happy and expect unrealistic transfer acquisitions at the level we are currently playing it.

If they improve the level that we play at I dont care where they come from.
If we relied only on home grown players we would be in the Conference, who gets slated on here most Cox Virgo and El Abd end of argument.

I think it's a new signing made by the manager of Brighton and Hove Albion, Gus Poyet.
I hope he's good.

This has certainly got eveyone fired up - I'm going down the Billy Mumfry road of cock eyed optimism on this one, if he's good enough for Gus then for now he's good enough for me.

Simply if you had a choice between Whing and Calderon who would you choose ?

Eight Ninths of an inch? wow, that is accuracy for you!
Yup, and of course, he's shit, even though no-one on here has ever seen him play.
when is this club giong to start moving forward
Good morning Mr Salde - or can I call you Russ? What have you been up to since November?
Would be interesting to know what standard 2nd tier of Spanish football is? Is it akin to say our 2nd tier or even 3rd tier.
Calderon has played nearly all his football in Spains 2nd tier, so some indication of Spanish football lower league standrad would be helpful in knowing whether he will be any good or not. Having said that time will tell.
I for one wish him all the best.

I agree with the first part of your post. I would hate it if Brighton was a team of foreigners like Arsenal. However, I do think that the diversity added by a number of foreign players (largely flair) is a good thing. Only one keeper can be played at a time, so there is still plent of scope for further foreign players without creating a team of foreigners.
The thing I find interesting about this signing is not only the fact that he is a defender (where we are obviously poor) but that he was a Captain for another club.
In my opinion the biggest problem we have had over recent years is the lack of "leaders" on the pitch, and we only have gobbey petulant kids like Cox. Hopefully, this guy will be a leader on the pitch.

I remember him. Wasn't he a sprint champion or something like that? He came on as sub in a first team game at the goldstone and was extremely quick, but not very skilful. May be wrong tho.
Used to go and watch the reserves all the time back then. He played up front with TINY David Gipp. Both showed promise but came to nowt.
Another regular at the same time was the almost-as-tiny Ian Muir, who scored loads but never got a proper first team chance, and subsequently became Tranmere's record goalscorer...
