So what happened between the 8th May and 10th June...

[The Large One]

Nice one, I will knock but if no-one is in I'll just slip it in your box ALAN.

I have a very nice opening ready for you.

 

[Silent Bob]

Is the correct answer

Except for the apostrophe in "Saturdays".

That's not correct.

 

[Spanish Seagulls]

This was a game plan all along, the scenario played out to advise agents & their players that we play hardball when it comes to contracts so don't f*** about. I posted this theory previously & a couple did agree it was plausible.
Inigo was always going to sign.

 

[Spanish Seagulls]

Oh, I had better go & let his family out of my cellar hadn't I.

 

[Tim Over Whelmed]

Gus had pulled the clever stunt of having his name changed to Bill Archer, bought him a season ticket and threatened to stick him in H block next season (guess he'd need some plastic surgery also) ... this isn't it, is it?

No doubt Lord Gus of Brighton will tell us why when he returns from holday, but I think Poyet and Bloom took a gambe on this from the offset for the reasons you mentioned.

What I love about this, is that clearly neither the manager or chairman is here to massage their egos. Where as Dick Knight would tell all, to anyone who would listen to him, these two seem to be no nonsense businessman, who will do whats needed to succeed

 

[Aristotle]

Gus left for his holiday with a broken heart. He had lost the one player he truly believed in... the man who would have brought flair back to brighton but no, he could not go back on his word. he was a man of HONOUR (slaps breast!)... the dream was dead.

As soon as he left, Bloom phoned up Inigo and said 'I hear you think yourself a bit of a poker player. Inigo fell for the bait and at the top of the evening, with Inigo holding a royal flush.... Bloom made the following proposal 'I tell you what Inigo mate, how about if I win this hand, you sign for three years at your original salary. If you win the hand, off you pop to the saints and you can a four weeks hols on my luxury cruiser.'

Inigo should have known to bet his sould with the devil... especially one with four aces.

So Gus's dream is alive and his honour is intact.

Although a royal flush beats four aces...

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

Although a royal flush beats four aces...

Yes - but the ace has gone.

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

I've heard from a very good source that Gus stole his children.

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Maybe, given that he has only just started jogging, Southampton were not prepared to put a deal on the table, until he'd proven his fitness. Caldy got cold feet waiting and scampered back onto the Gus Bus pronto...

This sounds plausible.

 

[Withdean Wanderer]

SAINTS have missed out on signing right back Inigo Calderon.

In a surprise U-turn, the Spaniard has put pen to paper on a new three-year deal at The Withdean after turning down a more lucrative offer from Saints.

Last month, Seagulls boss Gus Poyet had said the player had no future at Brighton after turning down a new contract offer amid interest from Alan Pardew.

Calderon today said: "I think it would have been two years with Southampton. We were still sorting out the terms.

“The money they were offering was better than Brighton. Of course, that is important, but my feelings were for Brighton."

 

[Common as Mook]

To be honest, I couldn't give a flying frig what happened.

We have signed a brilliant full-back for this division and that's all that matters

 

[Easy 10]

While he was away scouting, Gus met up with a South American gangland cartel, gave them a knowing nod, and passed them Calderons name. One crackly late-night phone call later, and Calderon was beating down the portacabin door at Withdean DESPERATE to sign a contract, ANY contract, "just calla da fackers offa me, PLEASE Gusman".

 

[Mellor 3 Ward 4]

What a rediculous suggestion.

Quite clearly the right answer.

 

[Man of Harveys]

He realised spending his Saturday's hoofing the ball ninety yards at a fat scouse lad in the middle of an industrial estate was no way for a sexy rightback to make his money.

Spot. On.

Brighton is the HOME of sexy people and sexy football.

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Spot. On.

Brighton is the HOME of sexy people

Is this why you're leaving?

 

[Man of Harveys]

Is this why you're leaving?

 

[cuthbert]

He found out Gus was not going to sign a new contract, and was willing to come back to Albion with any other manager.
