Andrea Orlandi- Setting the record straight

[Sheebo]

Not sure, I know he left for Albacete to coach, but presumably it didn't last long

Whos Who

That list was published July 2012. U sure ur correct on this?!

 

[Neecha]

Yeah! How ****ing dare you come on here and try and tell us things you worthless piece of scum!

Good to meet you too!

 

[Easy 10]

Well I didn't know Orlandi originated from Italy.

But then I only recently discovered that the tagline to the popular Whoopi Goldberg 1990's box office SMASH sensation Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit, was actually an ingenious reference to the fact that nuns wear habits. I thought she was just pretending to be a nun again, and made no link with the sartorial element of the "gag".

Perhaps make this a thread of things that most people already know, but a few people won't:

Leo Ulloa's first name is actually JOSE
Liam Bridcutt played against us in that famous youth game where we beat Chelsea at Withdean
Zigor Aranalde has returned to the club as Chief Scout

Now THAT is a good post. I knew the first, but not the rest.

[Sheebo]

well he left in July 2011 - I could be wrong, but I heard someone mention it on a matchday recently too

Ah time flies... Hope ur correct!

 

[Neecha]

Well the Italian bit was news to me. Cheers.

Was me too until I kept seeing media reports stating he is Spanish. Especially Revista yesterday on Sky when GP was on the panel.

 

[Papa Lazarou]

I'm sure we all know, but his full name is Andrea Orlandi Stabilin

 

[Icy Gull]

The Bridcutt bit was news to me

 

[Neecha]

I'm sure we all know, but his full name is Andrea Orlandi Stabilin

Is British gold sought after abroad?

 

[Puppet Master]

Double cool

Erm. Pardon?

Don't blow a gasket, there's a good girl.

Thanks, was getting a bit stressed there.

Good to meet you too!

You know I was being sarcastic right

Do you know if there's been a "where are they now" post on ex Brighton players and staff?

I do now as I couldn't imagine that much rage over this post I didn't even mention Barnes in it either so gathered!!

To be fair, it did take me about 10 years to understand the joke "Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side."

You're sarky meter must be completely knackered. I'm sure there are plenty here who didn't know of Orlandi's ancestry, not everyone watches all the videos etc.

I think I have had a sense of humour failure after reading some of the replies. The problem is everyone will know that fact but some didn't. Probably wont mention Orlandi again until he is draped in an Italian flag at Wembley after we win the play off final
