[Football] Adam El-Abd

[Cowfold Seagull]

We were all shocked when he left.

I think there was a little gap between him going and the next home game.
It was just long enough for me to deal with the 'loss'.

Then at 2:55 with Sussex By The Sea blaring out Adam didn't coming running towards me all shiny head and thighs, flailing his arms about and giving ME a clenched fist roar.

I realised that would never happen again and I was very very sad.
I don't mind admitting a minor tear-ette did well up in my eye.

Noooo, it was me he was running towards, arms flailing and fists clenched, me l tell you, me, me, ME!

As you can probably tell, l loved Adam too, Brighton through and through, and l miss him.

Advantages - he's double hard and able to wind up any opposition striker
Disadvantages - he has a head like a fifty pence piece

I'd like him come back. He'll always give his all and I miss seeing him winding up the opposition striker. Also, the more local players in the team, the better.

 

[Stumpy Tim]

I thought he had a great couple of seasons for us, but we sold him at the right time. Refs had worked out his shirt-tugging and he was a marked man. Lewis Dunk is a far superior player in my opinion.

Club legend though

 

[Harry H]

Dirty rather than hard,a poor passer,but not a bad stopper.
Got hurt a couple of times for winding up the wrong people.
I would expect to see him at Whitehawk within a couple of seasons.

Not hard? Are you mental?

 

[Stat Brother]

If the Albion want to ruin the yoof set up at Lancing, by having 'motivational' words bandied about the place they could do a lot worse than just describing AEA:-

Committed.
Passionate.
Hard working.
Loyal.
Honest.
Professional.


I much rather Lancing developed teams of El Abd's over more talented showponies, but then again it's not my money.

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

I saw him in the virgin active at falmer yesterday , just saying like.

and I saw him there on wednesday!

my father-in-law is a courier and delivered a parcel to his house the other week. he's still Brighton based, or at least his wife is

 

[Brizzle Lad In Peace]

Maybe that's the problem eh Brizzie Lad?, he bleeds BLUE & white. Perhaps he should be playing for that lot down the road from you. Mind you, he would be in the Conference this season if he was.

He'd fit in well in the conference, 'ard, physical centre half.

 

[Brizzle Lad In Peace]

Is the problem not Cotterill? I don't know how he keeps getting jobs!

Cotterill worked wonders to get us to midtable last season, and has made some unbelieveable signings since he has came here, Freeman, Wade Elliot etc.
