From the telegraph : Lamptey’s appetite to learn is evident. He is, for example, pleased that Bruno Salter, Brighton’s former long-serving right-back and captain, is now part of Potter’s coaching staff. “Bruno is a fantastic person to learn off. He has so much experience of playing at the top...

I'm sorry but I'm not aware of any furore about searching people who have been arrested. If there is its a very quiet furore!

I read that. It's a strange statement isn't it, the 'furore' he mentions, if I understand correctly, is about stopping and searching people for dubious reasons, ie the colour of their skin. However pretty much everyone would agree that someone being detained/arrested and taken to a police...

Good result, but it hasn't sent us a lot into a tizz like it might have done in previous seasons. After all, they just got their second premier league win over Manchester United in 23 attempts. Matching our record in just six games.

Interesting. The way we just turned Newcastle over might have got them lot a little worried?

I feel way more sad about this than I expected

".... never gives the ball awaaaay... 1, 2, 3, 4, ah-oh-oh, Stephens our midfielder...." :cheery:

Shades of Wilkins, ah yes there were some good kids there. Remember the 8-0 thrashing of Northwich. Out of the 16 players in the matchday squad only 5 hadn't come through our youth system. Who counted as a Wilkins babe - Sullivan, Lynch, Harding, Elphick, Virgo, Hinshelwood, El-Abd, Rents...

; Thats a very good response :thumbsup: :lol: Yes, if the poster is happy with that imagine the smile on his face if we won them both. To be honest I know I would also be content and proud if we put in the kind of performances needed to get a league draw and a narrow loss by our second team...

Chelsea game was in the evening :thumbsup:

You have a strange definition of 'happiness'

Cup game I suppose. Because then we keep going in the cup and have more games. Whereas our league season is not going to hinge on a game against Man United. However the league game is our next game, and as the best football cliche says we should always take it "one game at a time"

Glenn Murray, in 'not celebrating' mode as he's just scored for Brighton against Palace / Palace against Brighton. They could make two and we could each have one.

I will still have those great memories from Swansea away on our first season up and singing the 'Stephens our midfielder' song on almost continuous loop.

That's the Transfer Market made up valuation. I think it's the amount Amiens bought him from Liefering for in January 2019. But realistically, there is surely no way a Premier league club can buy an U19 France striker who has three years on his contract for just £300k.

Spent more than 900k. Not all the fees are available, but we've signed Dendoncker, van Hecke, Ella, Weir. Dd was out of contact so no transfer fee, van Hecke is reported 1.8 million, Weir was 500k, and Ella had three years left on his contract at Amiens, he must have cost quite a lot, surely...

I mean the name, that name, what a wonderful name. POM-BO, POM-BO, POM-BO - you can just hear it being chanted round the stands.... We will have to get drummers in if we get this guy!

OK, but he is getting a chance. Right now. He's training every day with the first team squad, and had his chance to impress the manager. Hes played one match already and will play again tomorrow.

Well let's flip this around. Would you rather that Molumby played instead of Bissouma, Propper or Alzate, so that we demonstrate that there is a place for young players coming back from a loan? And if not, are you saying that being on the bench, waiting for one to get an injury and playing some...

It's an interesting trend to have observed, now we can test if it's a real change or just a fluke
