Five actually, Trippier, Wood, Burn, Targett, Guimares. I'm quite surprised they haven't shipped anybody out, thats going to be a big squad of players on the sidelines
Bye Dan, and good luck, you certainly played well enough to deserve a move to your own club.
Now you've got a hell of a lot of defensive work to do, and will be interesting to watch your progress. Good luck!
Complete hats off to our recruitment team that we manage to sign a player on transfer deadline day who doesn't appear once in a rumour thread on here or twitter or anywhere. Just BAM, a ridiculous name from a major European club just dropping into our 23's. So Brighton.
Not agreeing personal terms doesn't have to mean he was greedy, there's lots of parts to this deal. It may be the realisation that he wasn't going to be playing in the Premier league next month and instead would be heading out who knows where on loan.
One club can't have ALL the players. I feel a bit sad when I see Goldson doing well for Rangers or Normann at Norwich, Molumby on his way and now Burn leaving, but we can't keep them all. In the last six months we've brought in Kozlowski, Enciso, Scherpen, Cucurella, Mwepu, Mitoma, Caicedo, Sima...
Oh GOD, YES IT IS! Back us Tories to sort that out, wont happen on our watch, all because Labour are soft on immigration, wait till we're out of the EU and can CONTROL our WATERS. What, Conservatives have been in power for 12 years? Immigration to the UK is higher than ever? You're clearly not...
The birthday party is an irrelevance, it's the other after work parties, especially the one where loads of peeps were invited by email from the PPS; the two which took place on the end of the Duke of Edinburghs funeral, and the various Christmas bashes, that are far more serious.
I'm not...
I think if I was prevented from making a career move because someone else had a no poaching clause in their contract, I'd be wanting to sue someone for damages.
I'm not party to his contract, why should it affect me?

Is a very weak story actually. Mark Douglas is the i's Northern Football Correspondent, with sources inside Newcastle and other northern teams. But this article...
But they're not a 'thing' in football.
And although I'm aware they exist elsewhere, I can't really believe they are enforceable, restricting the employment rights of an individual because of a clause in a different person's contract.
However the article says 'Sources at Brighton think' rather than 'Sources at Newcastle'. Which is strange, considering that Mark Douglas is the 'Northern Football Correspondent' for the i.
Makes me wonder if this source is just Paul Barber at the Fans Forum confirming we'd let him talk to...
