That jukebox thread that you love so much, well.. I’ve decided it’s getting boring now. Avoid it? No way, I’ll just open it up and complain [emoji6]

We know, as well as most teams, that signing players in the £20m bracket is always a gamble.No to all of that. But they are doing decent businesses in filling in gaps to keep them up.
Sorry, are you forced to read it?
I don’t give a damn about the Jukebox thread but I don’t go there complaining about it.
Just move on. Ignore. Problem solved. And that goes to any other moaners.
The jukebox thread doesn't make us look overly obsessed with Leeds schoolboys.
I hate the jukebox thread. I also hate the word association thread.
I don't go near them but now we are confessing which threads we don't like it seems apt to mention them.
Perhaps the fun police can investigate those threads as well ? Lol.
Most of the idiots quoted on this thread and infesting twitter are middle-aged and should know better. The corollary from that is that most of us quoting them are also middle-aged and should know better.
Middle aged would imply that I am going to live to be over 100...god that idea fills me with horror. Now. If I lived in Leeds I’d be wishing that I’d be dead next Tuesday rather than face another bitter winter filling my bath with coal and wearing bicycle clips to stop my whippets escaping.
It always amazes me, having spent many years in the grim north, why they don’t just kill themselves rather than keep the desperate struggle going. At least I knew that I didn’t belong and would be on my bike as soon as I possibly could.
So you mean to say, you don't like it up there?

We have signed players who have been top scorers at their clubs, and in their leagues, who aren't even good enough to get on our bench. From our point of view I hope that Veltman works out, but I wouldn't put any money on it.
On the other hand, we've had a few good signings at that price.
Teams like us buy relatively unknown players, and if 50% of them work out, you've got to be fairly happy.

Bloody Hell! I ,as with many others, only saw Veltman in the first half against Chelsea on Albion TV but I thought he looked effortless class.Albeit in a friendly game against an under strength Chelsea but he looked the real deal to me.All about opinions I guess but I'd put money on him being a regular starter for us unless the world's gone mad.
He misses the whippets in winter
I was chatting to my mate yesterday. Brighton fan but now lives in France; his wife is Dutch. He met up with his Dutch brother in law recently whose an Ajax fan and the first thing they talked about was us signing Veltman. He said is was proper shitehouse.... no wait, sorry, got that wrong. He said Veltman is a great player, shows good leadership qualities and occasionally has a nasty streak in him. He was impressed that he’d signed for a team like Brighton....
Well done for getting in a #teamslikebrighton there.
My dutch mate here in Eastbourne said 'He's better than Propper'. And that was that. I believe we saw that on Saturday, albeit in a friendly.
Cant stand these two club so called fans
The 'fan' you are calling out has never supported Man United, but has paid hundreds of pounds supporting his team, been on marches, boycotts, spent money in the club shop not relying on freebies I dont think you need to point the finger at that fan, unless of course you want to divulge in your "favourite" club history?

Spill GW, I'm all ears.
