we must be the laughing stock in the football leauge when it comes to selling our top players.we will end up making less on zamora then what we let him go for.well done again dick head knight.when ,and if only when we get falmer we will end up in in the red again big time. £48.million.to get falmer up and running .we must ask ourselfs what a big cost. a second or maybe third division team just cannot afford a big dream like that.
every fan must ask themselves do we really know where the £48.million is coming from?.AND AT WHAT COST!

Cost of living and land in Stoke a fraction of Brighton though.

Leaving aside the fact that your last sentences doesn't make sense, where have you been all summer!?!?

Reality check: a footballer is only worth what another club is prepared to pay. Only Spurs wanted him this summer. He wanted to go. We needed the cash. Where's your problem?

The money for the actual stadium will come from private investors. Albion will rent the ground from them.

And when the planning permission is approved and investors take over (the ground, not the club!), the club will get back all the money its currently investing in the planning.

Well... allowing for BZ to build a giant reputation over a couple of seasons & the club that next comes in for him in for him being CONSIDERABLYRICHERTHANYEOW Tottenham then we're looking at a near enough seven figure sum somewhere down the line. Which is nice.

The twat that agreed to the B.Rovers sign-on clause for BZ still deserves a right kicking mind... Don't suppose it was the same bloke that signed the medical for Unfitson & Buttermountain by any chance... ???

In many northern cities there is plenty of derelict former industrial brown field sites, Brighton is handicapped by the fact that we are hemmed in to the south by the sea and to the north by the downs and there are very few brown fwn fiield sites. Hence the struggle to get Falmer.

As anyone who's been held captive by Privatised Railways (Enemies Of The People doncha know) points failures between Hassocks and Haywards Heath will testify, it's nothing BUT fuckin' fields out there in the badlands. Go on, pick a field, any field. Give a farmer a bit of dosh. Build a stadium. Pass Go. Pick up degree in ItAintRocketScience :dunce:

Exactly. Where we live is just too damn nice.

Too true. Building a football stadium in the north turns an industrial landscape into an area of outstanding beauty

The corner quietly rusting
the 12.5% is mere speculation no one outside of the 2 clubs actually knows what it is.

It is 2.5% more than the last speculation and all but takes care of any 30% BR may or may not be entitled to.

Look at the sell on that was enforced on West Brom for the player they recently signed via the panel. They enforced 10% sell on, not the same sell on's we got with Barry (which we sold out on) and Standing.

The market is what the market is and this was the best deal available now.

Now unless you are prepared to put the same amount of money into the club as the other directors, unless you are prepared to put as much time into the club as DK I suggest you shove your opinions where the sun don't shine.

Lets hope Roman Abromavich steams in for him at the end of the season, we might get another couple of million! ;)

What worries me is that in the Arsegus last night, it said that Albion 'were of the opinion that the sell on clause was just once'. Im sorry but when your selling your best player for the most amount if money in the clubs history, an opinion is not good enough. They have to be bloody certain! When Sinclair joined Man City, QPR, his second previous club, had to give a further sell on to Blackpool (his first club).

Is his value even going to go up?

First game of the season and he's on the bench. Is he on Under 21 call up?
