Joe Anyinsah is probably not flavour of the month with Albion at the moment after snubbing them for Carlisle earlier on in the January transfer window.
The Seagulls could still end up being grateful, though, for the persuasive tongue of their former loan signing if Jason Jarrett turns out to be a useful acquisition for the rest of the season.
Anyinsah played a part in Jarrett’s move from Preston, together with a couple of the central midfielder’s new colleagues.
“I got to know Joe well at Preston over the last two years,” Jarrett explained. “We are good friends.
“He spoke highly of the club and recommended them. He said only good things so I am really happy to come down here.
“I could have gone elsewhere but I’ve heard really good things as well about the manager from a couple of players here who I already know from when I had a loan spell at Hull – Nicky Forster and Dave Livermore.
“This is a chance to resurrect my career and I am really grateful to Micky Adams for bringing me down here. I just want to get a little bit of a break and see what I can do again.”
In golfing parlance Jarrett, 29, has a full set. Albion are the 13th club of a career spent primarily at Championship level.
His best years were at Wigan, helping Paul Jewell’s side reach the Premier League with two promotions after a spell with his home town club, Bury.
Signed by Preston after a successful loan stint, he made just nine appearances in a frustrating two-and-a-half years with the Lancastrians and has joined Albion after his contract – due to expire in the summer – was terminated by mutual consent.
“Pre-season the manager (Alan Irvine) said he wanted to keep me but I have not been playing,” said Jarrett.
“On a couple of occasions I could have gone on loan. He said no and wanted me to stay. He told me I was part of the future but there is only so long that you can sit on the bench. I wanted to leave so that I can play some games.
“Dropping down to League One doesn’t bother me at all. I’ll just be happy to be playing football again. I’ve come here to hopefully help Brighton kick on.
“From what I’ve seen and what I’ve heard they are not a bad team, but we need results quickly.”
That quest continues tonight at runaway leaders Leicester, one of seven clubs Jarrett has served on loan.
“Rob Kelly took me to Leicester and I was close to signing for them but it fell through when he was sacked.
“They are a big club and obviously the best team in the League. Everyone can see that so it is going to be very difficult. They are a club that should definitely be in the Championship at the very least.”
Jarrett’s baptism of fire could just incorporate an agricultural method of dealing with Leicester’s prolific dangerman, Matty Fryatt.
“Even when I was there he was just a natural goalscorer,” he said. “He has a lot of ability and if he gets a chance he is going to score.
“We have got to try and starve him of chances and if I can give him a kick I will!”

Do you think someone should alert the club that they are about to field an ineligable player? 
That was posted on sunday.He is SET TO SIGN.No conformation of it yet.

Yes but if you read the Leicester team news article it says he will make his debut tonight and about "Jarrett's arrival". I think he has signed but the club have taken Sunday's article as being enough. I agree it has not been officially confirmed but fully expect to see him playing tonight.
There were also pictures on here yesterday of him training in a Brighton shirt.
A player must have signed at 12 noon the day before a match in order to be elligable (unless said player is a loan signing). Therefore the availability of Jarrett to play is evidence of the fact he has signed.
So, we will know by 7.45 tonight whether he signed before the midday deadline yeasterday... if you get my drift (I know I haven't explained it well, but cannot think of a better way to word it!).
