He's still a Brighton player struggling to get game time in Ecuador !

I don't think he is our player anymore

Maybe bhafcitk really IS in the know - but he clearly meant "coming years" !

That's a fantastic obscure post to dig out - where did bhafcitk get that snippet from?

I'm more interested in how -- or, perhaps better, why -- AZ managed to dig that out.

My guess is that AZ just did a search for Veltman to see if he'd been mentioned before. I'd be surprised if AZ remembered the post, but you never know.

Is he not? I thought he was still ours.

That phrase about a stopped clock comes to mind.

He is still out player, he was on our list of retained players published by the Premier League, I believe his current loan spell runs until December 2020.

I see Hulk is eyeing a Premier League move with his contract at Shanghai ending soon. He's 34 but would be an Incredible signing.

I see what you did there. If he's still got (most of) the attributes he had when I was familiar with him a few years back, I suspect that you're right.

Didn't he do something naughty ?

Given the honourable mentions on the Lallana thread, seeing the tags added to this thread supports the suggestion they be disabled.

Yeah, good shout, they are pretty nasty.

I think so but he's still OUR naughty boy!

Jailed for 20 days for drink driving in Ecuador in Oct 19.

He's a silly arse, is Billy Arce...

Before that, he'd been dropped by his previous loan club for off-field discipline...

You are correct, [MENTION=25]Gwylan[/MENTION]. We are linked with so many players these days i just wondered if his name had cropped up on NSC before. I have no idea where [MENTION=24838]Bladders[/MENTION] even copy-and-pasted that post from, and certainly don't remember the post itself - there are way too few hours in the day as it is, for me to spend my time perusing a football fans' rumours thread!

Is Percy Tau still in the frame to come here?
