[Albion] Fabian Hürzeler **SINGED 15/06/2024**

[Deadly Danson]

Yeah, its the governing body exemption which essentially grants the work permit

Thanks - can't imagine the compensation will be a huge issue so the main stumbling block will now be when he gets here and realises that the monorail has yet to be built.

 

[Beach Hut]

The ignore button is fantastic, a certain serial boring thread starter has kindly put me on his ignore list.

An outstanding personal accolade

 

[Zeberdi]

Would I be right in thinking that as we are in discussion with SP then he has agreed a deal with us and we just need to sort compo with them

Almost - it seems from tweets that we have discussed Brighton contract terms with FH apparently they were favourably met - but because there is no release clause (determining a transfer fee minimum) I think the negotiations for the fee are quite complicated - and SP would not have agreed to considering letting him go too easily.

Surely if he is set on coming they wont stand in his way but just want as much money as possible

 

[DJ NOBO]

What’s a GBE?

 

[Baldseagull]

No way will we wait to see how the Euros play out. We need a manager in place for pre season and to persuade players who we are looking to get during the transfer window.
Nagelsman is hardly going to come here.

Paperwork for Hurzeler or Rydstrom may not be finalised for a month or so but so long as it’s a formality, then we are ok.

There is a quicker work visa if you pay a bit more, can be done in 5 days.

Yes exactly - but do you see our gambling man folding before they do on a higher fee if he could get it across the line for less?

 

[SeagullinExile]

I think you are the one confused - read the post again.

@SeagullinExile was just saying that it was only media rumour that said we had decided on McKenna - which is absolutely true - far more likely than your anti- Bloom narrative that we’d sack a manager just to stop Chelsea getting another one we liked - sorry that’s warped thinking based again on your Potter agenda that Brighton fans and the Club are so angry at Chelsea for stealing Potter we’d let it effect our current transfer business - grow up ffs

Well edited you weapon.

[WhingForPresident]

This really is a peak Albion appointment. Fingers crossed it goes well.

 

[Baldseagull]

Didn’t realise having a difference of opinion or telling some hard truths constituted being a complete ****, whatever that may be. I’m not the kind of person to ever tow the company line or propaganda spin. The convenient narrative around Potter and the collective amnesia is absolute insanity if you ask me. Particularly for a club which relies on its model of succession plans. Seems some fans struggle to keep up with the realities of that process by childishly booing anyone who dare leave the club for a bigger pay check, players included.

It is the manner of the departure that gets people a bit passed off, Cucurella and Caicedo tried to force their moves through, and that can affect the transfer value. Mac Allister, Bissouma etc didn't and retain our respect. I have no issue with Garcia, De Zerbi, or other managers that decided to leave before their contract was up, if they go in the close season, not during it. Even then, it can be done with more respect than Potter seemed to show, I appreciate he had to make a quick decision, but it felt like he could not get out of here fast enough and cared not a bit about letting people here down. So f*** him.

 

[chaileyjem]

And now confirmed by Ornstein.

I’d say we have our man…

 

[jackalbion]

A 31-year-old relatively unknown Swiss American German manager who sometimes plays with no midfield.
This one would be full Brighton.

Didn’t Hyypia try this at Derby away?

 

[Eeyore]

Greater Brighton Entry

 

[Wozza]

What’s a GBE?

Literally discussed a few posts up.

Why don't people read previous posts anymore?! So weird.

 

[Eric the meek]

A shout out for Scoop @Zeberdi for digging out this completely unknown American-Swiss-German hothead to become our next manager.

I think you have misunderstood

 

[ManOfSussex]

Our manager is 31. I'm 45. He's 14 years younger than me. Back of the net.
