And this brings me to another anecdote this time a personal one. On Saturday my little Norah told Laura that she didn’t want daddy to go to Blackpool because in Blackpool daddy doesn’t smile.

Poor Andrea. What he'd give to be down here now, eating ice-cream on the beach with Calde.

"I have only played once at Craven Cottage and that was in the FA cup with Swansea. Roberto said to me, ‘warm up, you are going on in 5 minutes.’ He then ended up putting three other players on instead of me! He often pulled those kind of jokes on me…."

That's no way to treat our Andrea

Amazing use of English and a really interesting but sad article. Thanks for posting

I wish I hadn't read that.

Life at Blackpool FC cannot be a bed of roses. After last night they are already losing touch with their rivals and have a real 6 pointer against Fulham.

I guess it's down to Orlandi to show Clark that he isn't a luxury player, is prepared to roll up his sleeves for a relegation fight, so warrants a place in the team.

I know his form and fitness took a bit of dive under Oscar but I'd rather see Andrea (or even Spanish Dave) than Kemy in our current squad.

Would any of you lot have him back? I would.

Can't argue with that.

Andrea Orlandi Is head and shoulders above the likes of Gardner, even when he was being forced to play last season when clearly not fit.

Would have him back in a shot.

I admire his British humour of sitting on the bench and hearing the announcer give the name of a bloke whose wife was locked out of their house. The evenings high point for the crowd. I will put him up if he wants to come back to Brighton. Great player and man. Highlight Cardiff away with Gus.

I'd have him back in a heartbeat, though to be honest there probably is some truth in that he'll prosper in a winning team but probably flounder in a losing one. Massive positive influence off the pitch as well. Amazing to be that articulate in a second language.

English is his fourth language. He's Italian, and speaks Spanish and Catalan.

Absolutely. Lets hope the thread does not go down the Cliff Richard isn't Indian route.....

God that is truly emotional and straight from the heart. I would love to see Orlandi back with us!

In the starting line up tonight. Currently 2-0 up at Fulham!

When he left it was like a light went out in my soul. God help me as/when Calde moves on.
