Anyone listen to Calderon’s interview after yesterdays match. Interviewer asked him several times about the stress & pressure on the players & he gave the same answer each time “pressure is not playing football; pressure is being in Afghanistan or Iraq.”
Our visitor for the Derby match must have made a real impression on him. Shame some of the prima donnas in the Premier League don’t think the same when they are demanding 100, 200, £250,000 per week then complain they are exhausted having to play two matches a week.

Talking of Inigo, just saw him sitting with his partner down on Brighton beach by the volleyball courts.

What infuriates me the most is these over paid fucks is they don't know the meaning of the word "WORK". I'd like to see them do a 40 hour week on a building site for £20,000 a year.

Tired? my f***ing arse.

He seems like a really down to earth guy, I did one of his sports psychology classes and he was saying how too many play for money and not for the passion.

Absolutely this. Wouldn't know what a hard day's work was if the **** tripped over one!

Yep, drinking a purple smoothie, topless at one point and stroking his husky. Young kid in a BHA top walked straight past him without realising.

Don't blame him. Brighton is a lovely place especially when the suns out. Let's hope we can attract a few more top players in the summer. And decent and down to earth ones like calde!

What with Brett Mendoza at Brighton the Musical last night it's been a weekend of a celebrity spotting in the CM household.

Just found a photo of a ten year-old Brett Mendoza in an old Albion programme. He enjoys playing football for Hove Park Colts. He also plays squash, swims and takes part in athletics. He names Dean Wilkins as his favourite player.

Looks like his celebrity status began at a very early age!

I love inigo, my favourite player personality wise, he's honest, hard working, dedicated and a passionate professional.

He deserves his place in the squad over reyes imo.

Calde is the type of guy that will stay with brighton beyond his playing days. A great representative to have i say

Blimey, I am assuming that most of you didn't see what half of NSC were posting about Calderon when he didn't sign a contract and the talk of was of him going to Soton. A lot of you seem to be generalising about the prem players. The likes of Bellamy, Drogba certainly do more than their fair share for the less well off and I suspect there are many more. As to the players who claim to be exhausted, perhaps you should name and shame as I'm not aware of them. As for the money, they ask and they get. Whose fault is that? If you asked for a pay rise and your boss gave it, would you turn it down. If you want to blame anyone, blame all the 'fans' who subscribe to Sky Sports and therefore fund these salaries!!!
