    Long and rather wonderful Knockaert piece in Times

    Very interesting article. What an amazing person and player he is. He might be lucky to have been with the club during the last year but we're also very lucky to have him. What a committed, talented player and such a genuine person.

    Very sad news. RIP

    Lewis Grabban rumours

    Agreed. Stories like this are such lazy journalism. Brighton had previous interest in x player (Grabban/Calleri/Bolanos etc) and that player might be available again therefore Brighton must be interested. This completely ignores the fact it was a different management team and scouting network...

    [Albion] There is ZERO chance of SIGNING anyone today.

    Looking at what happened with Pritchard, I think it is fair to assume that the club will be doing their best to keep any possible signings to themselves. They are probably happy for random names to be mentioned to distract everyone from real targets.

    [Albion] There is ZERO chance of SIGNING anyone today.

    But on the other hand, you've admitted yourself to being very negative. I think we will sign a striker to add the depth but don't think we'll replace LuaLua. In the summer, you were very negative about our chances, especially when we didn't get in a back up to Baldock, and look where we are now...

    Cardiff game rearranged for Tues 24th Jan, 7.45pm.

    Exactly. I thought they were keeping back announcing the timing until they knew what happened at the weekend (would have looked silly if they announced it for that day and then were playing Newcastle at the weekend) but once we got through it was the obvious date. As you say, the first team...

    Cardiff game rearranged for Tues 24th Jan, 7.45pm.

    I probably can't make this now but fully understand why the club have chosen this date. Avoiding fixture congestion has to be the priority and we need this game to be played in January to have a chance of doing that. Can't understand why some on here are upset. As others have said there is a...

    LUA LUA to QPR on loan

    It's one of the many what ifs of last season. Both Kaz and March were on amazing form when they got injured. If they'd both stayed fit, or even one of them, we might be in the Premier League now.

    LUA LUA to QPR on loan

    I meant signing another attacker generally. Then we've got eight in total for the first team (KLL leaving brings us down to seven) and then youngsters like Bjordal or someone who can play on the wing like Rosenior to come in if necessary. As for impact, we'll have to agree to disagree. He's had...

    LUA LUA to QPR on loan

    Fair point. I agree and probably correctly as Rosenior is very effective as a winger (he's very effective in every position he has played for us).

    LUA LUA to QPR on loan

    I doubt it. Pretty sure half season loans don't allow for a recall. I'm not saying he wouldn't be on the bench (although you are assuming we don't sign anyone which we may well do this month), I'm talking about him actually being an asset when he comes on. Yes, he could be on the bench but...

    LUA LUA to QPR on loan

    It's simple. Staying with us there is no way he will produce that sort of form because he won't get game time. In my view, he's not the sort of player who can come in for the odd game and do well, he needs regular first team football. He is nowhere near getting that here. I imagine Albion would...

    11.30 kick off Cardiff v fulham

    Think they've been the most exciting to watch but they have lost both games in the end. I suppose Newcastle were best team we've faced and Brentford the best at the Amex in that they defended well and were clinical on the attack. Villa were good too although should have won. As I said, I'm not...

    11.30 kick off Cardiff v fulham

    I think it's fair to say they were the best to watch but, to be the best side, surely you have to be great at both ends. From the two games against us, their defence isn't great (see leaving Murray unmarked for our second at the Amex and the panic leading to the penalty on Monday) and the attack...

    Chris Hughton nth Longest Serving Manager in the English League

    Danny Wilson also sacked by Chesterfield today (although that doesn't impact Hughton's ranking). I think that's five managers sacked in eight days this year now!

    11.30 kick off Cardiff v fulham

    And they already have taken points off the top six. Looking through their results, the next highest placed team they have lost to is Villa in 12th. We have done so well to get six points from them (whether or not people think we deserved to win either game) and agree it is great we've not got to...

    FA Cup 4th Round - Who do you want?

    Another game like yesterday, at home to a League 1 club, would be good in many ways e.g. giving game time to our back up players again and a good chance of progressing. Only issue is that we will keep needing to rearrange game. We already have Cardiff and Newcastle. Having to rearrange Barnsley...

    Hunemeier or Goldson vs Preston?

    I can see why people are suggesting Huhnemeier but I think Hughton will go with Goldson. Goldson has been on the bench in recent weeks and kept a clean sheet along with Duffy at Wigan.

    A sign of how far we have come as a club...

    On top of that, if we sign a striker for the next round then him or Baldock could play up front with Hemed in next round and we would have some combination (depending on players leaving on loan) of Ankergren, Hunt, Adekugbe, Ince, Towell and LuaLua available for the bench!

    Surely Palace can't... 16/17

    Sorry, I apologise for missing that. I now realise that Selhurst Park has been massively modernised in recent years :lolol:
