So it's all on hold

Is this your guess?

No not a guess, and not sure why the panic with some its only Tuesday.

Ok, just looking to manage people's expectations around what you've said. Good news then.

This. Plus Gibraltor is nearly 4 hours drive from the Portuguese border. An hour either side of Gibraltor is roughly Malaga and Cadiz. I for one bloody hope it's Cadiz as its much closer to where I'm staying in Jerez and have no car so will be relying on the trains!

You're going to struggle with trains. the last train from Cádiz to Jerez is 20:30 and I doubt the match will even have kicked off by this time.

You'll need to organise a cab or bum a lift from someone if any matches are outside Jerez itself, which I would have thought highly likely.

Part of the smokescreen they've been putting out for 2 years...

It sounds like Leeds are playing silly b*ggers over this - having agreed a deal with Palace they're holding out for more money.

Either that, or McCormack just wants to use Palace as a tool to get a better contract with Leeds.

Can't believe Leeds would play hardball with a charity focussed club like palace? Hardly seems fair

Some bloke on Twitter. It doesn't mean anything. You or I could write that at any time.

For what it's worth, I think Poyet is looking in an entirely different direction to someone like Rhodes.

hunch or inside info?

 

[severnside gull]

Ian Abrahams (Moose @ TALKsport) says "it's not Michael Owen or Jordan Rhodes"

In fairness they are pretty accurate.











........and no, he hasn't said who it might be but from the fact that he is talking at all my guess is something happening is not as far away as Gus had us believe yesterday

 

[GingerBeerMan]

hunch or inside info?

Probably a hunch like 99% of stuff on this board

 

[Lady Whistledown]

I'll call it an educated hunch for now.

Tee Hee. Sorry...

I think I know where you are coming from, and agree that they are all good signings. However, I neither think it is the end, or would be happy if it were. There is open talk of promotion to the Premiership being the target, and we still need a "box to box" strong midfielder and a good quality larger striker to achieve this.

Is a large 'box-to-box' strong midfielder and a larger striker going to be synonymous with the Gus style of play? Spain, Barcelona, Arsenal et al do not have this. It is the way Gus has modelled Brighton to play, with the ball to feet. Not sure adding two strong players would help that cause? Or is it a necessity at Championship level?

Glenn Murray was a strong, hold-up striker, albeit at League One level, and fitted quite comfortably into the style of play, so I would say with some confidence that a bigger man doesn't necessarily equate to hoof-ball. Unless you're Liverpool of course.
