It would be truely joyful if we paid Reading 2 million for McCleary and then they used the cash to buy Ali later in the summer.

I'm worried that this guy will not be the last player this summer who does not sit a room at Brighton.
That would indeed be the time to start chewing the carpet!
Perhaps they should consider closing the transfer window the day before the first match of the season. Then maybe some of the players with uber-greedy agents would find themselves out of work for the best part of six months (or stuck with the smaller club they were trying to move up from). They might then be more willing to accept a good offer rather than holding out for an even better one.

This all seems depressingly familiar.

There is of course the slim chance that our move for McCleary actually encourages some urgency in Ali to sign for us. I doubt it, though.
It does a bit, doesn't it?

I'm shocked that people are shocked we have not signed him. We are terrible in the transfer market. Always have been. We get lucky occasionally but generally we panic buy rubbish. This year appears to be no different. Long Long long season ahead
Think he's looking at the Anderlecht deal and hoping he can get into a club that are in a European competition TBH. You certainly can't blame him for that (If indeed that's the case). If it is Anderlecht he's hoping to join, I imagine that his arrival hinges on the potential departure of their forward Mitrovic. I'm sure that it's the same case with these other clubs looking at him too. Where they're looking to replace a few of their outgoing players once they're gone. That has been the main benefit of loan players ironically. You CAN start filling holes in your squad immediately (Not the we have).

Never seen the guy play so not bothered either way, he could sign a be a load of bollocks like that Wolfswinkle fella.

The thing that hacks me off with this player was that it seems he was never going to say yes.
It was all a game for his agent.
Who put the original story in the press. Not the albion for sure.
So he played us. Maybe, maybe, 50/50, maybe...
He came to look round the Amex etc. But was never going to sign. It was all about getting bids from higher teams.
Well done to the albion for pulling the plug on the shennanigans.

Has he ? ?? ??
I didn't realise. It gets worse.
You mean Murphy, right ? Or do you mean free agent Ward who chose Forest ?

Were definately loose and the season hasn't even started yet. Maybe we should all go and support Port Vale instead.
