I certainly think those that only want players who truly want to play for Brighton & Hove Albion FC are being a bit idealistic. Different players will have different priorities in terms of what they are looking for with money, chance of first team football, playing in the Premier League and international recognition all factoring to some degree or another from most I suspect.

However, I can't imagine too many of our foreign imports grew up with a dream of pulling on our particular blue and white stripes and plying their trade in leafy Sussex.

I would expect any player worth his salt to want to live by the sea. I can understand a player going to Barcelona but not Leicester City.

LCFC have apparently decided not to pursue this player.

[emoji23] He's covering all the bases now!

I was a little down on this happening last night.
But strangely the media silence everywhere including nothing from the Argus apart from our interest has lifted my hopes. I just feel the club wants this locked down for a big reveal or at least I hope.

Or maybe it's all just rumour and conjecture and nobody is actually being played by anyone. Well apart from the idiots making up the rumours and conjecture and those who believe them.

The vitriol and toy chucking by some people on here is a thing to behold when nobody actually knows ANYTHING about what is actually happening.

It's all good fun anyway......

Perhaps, it just all felt a bit orchestrated. Our stuff pretty much always comes out beforehand through John Percy at the Telegraph, as it has done for years and he's said nothing. Anyway, whatever happens good luck for the season!

Where is that being reported ?

Getting very fed up with this thread now, all this conjecture, and based on what exactly? a few untrustorthy football rumours sites, and the odd photo of AJ and his minder on a plane? (and even then we have no idea where it was going!)

According to some of you gullable lot, the bloke is on the verge of signing on the dotted line. Personally l'll believe it when l see it. Interesting too that there has been no mention of it by Sky , the BBC, or other more reliable sources.

Naaah I'm convinced it's all bull****.

:shrug:

I suppose it's good to see that unfathomable commentary on social media is alive and well. The East Midlands has some very pleasant living options.

Thinking about the difficulty with pronouncing his name (for some) I don’t much like Ally jaffacakes. IF he comes, how about Persian Ali....

Could be sung as:

Derup, der rup da,
Derup, der rup da,
Derup, der rup da,
Derup, der rup da,

I've always imagined this as a "Derder, der der der" rather than a "Derup, der rup da".
