Am I imagining things, or did we sign a player for half a million quid last week?

Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊

.....because reading NSC you wouldn't have realised that we've just matched our record fee.

A player who scored two less goals, for a woeful team, replacing a player in a team that pissed the league and wasted chances for fun.

ans so the the story goes, we have been rebuffed a second time by Watford with a bid of £700k..... TB needs to win a few more poker millions tournaments.

I'd have thought we should have 20 threads on our new signing if have to have more than 2 or 3 on an individual. Odd it would be on someone we didn't want to keep hold of when had the chance and dumped, only for Palarse to pick up and over pay. ho hum

Well according to the Argus: 'The Seagulls are believed to have paid an initial £500,000, equalling the record fee they splashed out on Andy Ritchie back in 1980, though that could rise with add-ons.'

As you will know full well, £500,000 paid out in 1980 is in no way comparable to £500,000 paid out in 2011. Please don't insult our intelligence by asking us to swoon at the record fee thing. In 1980 terms its the equivalent of a modest five figure sum.

Did I ask you to swoon?

We will be blasting our record fee out of the water over the coming weeks, at least one signing @ over £1M I would expect. :banana:

If we're promoted the Hoskins fee will rise to £800k I believe. A pleasant change from few years ago when we had to rely on the forty notes fund.

I think the goals he scored were decent but what he gave us in defence will be harder to replace.
