Brighton chairman Dick Knight has confirmed the club failed in a bid to lure Sheffield United forward Neil Shipperley to the south coast.

The Seagulls, who have been attempting to land a striker since the season began, agreed a deal with Blades boss Neil Warnock but Shipperley declined the chance to head south.

"Neil Warnock was happy for Shipperley to go but he wanted to stay at Sheffield United and now he's back in the team," said Knight.

"That is the type of striker we wanted to get. You need quality strikers like that in this division."

How did he find that out? Is he reliable?

I noticed Shipp hasn't scored in 9. Is he coming off the bench?

Could you not put in a good word for us long suffering and loyal fans?

This isn't going to happen...he started at the weekend.

Find he hard to believe he is going to go from the starting side to on loan within a week

To be honest Pezza Palace should have kept hold of Shipperley this season he would have been more than useful

 

[SJ's Love Monkey]

The good news is that if i am not mistaken Shipperley is one of the very few footballers who does not employ an agent, he represents himself so the deal should go through smoothly if you can persuade him to join.
