Alex Pritchard

[Sussex Nomad]

Most likely the article referred to transfer numbers, the club don't like those and prefer undisclosed. If he is signing today, the club might have wanted the article changed or removed. Did anyone read it before it was taken down?

Yeah I read it at 6am... pretty much said exactly the same as http://www.theargus.co.uk/sport/alb...vanced_talks_to_make_record_breaking_signing/ with an extra paragraph, wasn't anything new.

I don't think Brighton were every the only club interested in him, I imagine they are the first club to have a bid accepted.

I hope he does end up at the Amex as I believe he could be the difference this season - but I can see him staying in the PL at a club like Burnley, which wouldnt suit him at all.

Indeed, but yesterday it didn't appear as though it was going to be a tussle between us and anyone to get him to sign a contract, whereas now it could be.

I suppose if he doesn't come here it would be better for us if he does go to a PL side like Burnley, but the club need to do everything possible to push the deal through - he would be an immense signing.

Most likely that's the reason it was taken down. Hopefully ready for the main article on him signing!

Norwich, eh? The club that signed Grabban not long after we'd had extended talks that broke down with everyone thinking it was a formality that he'd sign for us. I know he went back to Bournemouth first but....

I know Mousse ( Moose?) broke the news about CMS but has he been right since with an exclusive about us since?

 

[Zebedee]

Let's hope the club can get this signing over the line or that they have a v good Plan B. We really need some good news in terms of new signings.

Moose is an idiot.

He just tweets stuff he finds on twitter pages like goal.com

I find him amusing sometimes, but I never listen to anything he says.

Oh good, that's encouraging

Usually he let's us know of a top signing coming our way which doesn't actually materialise, so his record is a little 'patchy'.

I suspect his info is often a little out of date, but nevertheless he could well have this one right.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

I think £8m is a lot to pay for someone who hasn't had even a sniff of action in the PL. If we start selling off people (and I'm not a great fan of Baldock) to finance an even larger bid, I would be concerned.

It is, but then Brighton want 15-20 Million for AK and Burnely quoted Sunderland 30 for Gray!

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Oh good, that's encouraging

Think of him as the human version of the star.

Know your pain
Can't help thinking his agent broke the silence during negotiations to try and see if there is a better deal out there?
To borrow a very tired footballing cliche "it's never over 'til it's over"

Zoiks!!!!

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Moose is on holiday at the moment, so I can't see he'd have any inside knowledge of transfer deals.

 

[Bakero]

Not sure if it passed you by but our season starts Saturday, not in a month

In that case our season is over if we don't sign a player that we didn't know we were signing yesterday.

 

[albionite]

Bit of an odd one Norwich don't really need an attacking midfielder think they are pretty much covered there, they need an out and out striker.

Suppose the fact we have made a bid for Pritchard was leaked for a reason.

 

[Boy Blue]

Can't read this thread anymore so joined twitter and followed the club twitter account and have activated the notice option. If I've not had a tweet by 6pm today then I'll take it he's not signing

 

[saafend_seagull]

Lol Norwich. They just gave hoolahan a new contract.

Moose broke the Wilson loan news last season.......

Naylor's bread and butter is covering the Albion so he needs to keep in with the club. He will only have written what he has if the club has given him the nod. So, and I'm not Itk at all, I reckon Pritchard has already signed and the 'leak' is to tell other clubs to go away.

That makes no sense at all!! If he has signed then other clubs would already be looking elsewhere!
