Gus said at the fans forum that he thought he hada Spurs player but it fell thriough at the last minute could that have been Andros Townsend and he had got fed up waiting for Lua Lua. Personally I think he would have been a better loan signing.

Albion will be reunited with Kazenga LuaLua – providing they wait a little longer.

The flying winger and his agent have been told by Newcastle chief Chris Hughton that he will be allowed back out on loan.

Hughton is, however, still assembling his squad for the Toon’s return to the Premier League and LuaLua will have to sit tight until then.

LuaLua enjoyed his loan spell so much at Withdean last season that he is desperate to come back, despite interest from Championship clubs Doncaster Rovers and Reading and two of the Seagulls’ League One rivals, Oldham and Bournemouth.

The move hinges on whether Albion boss Gus Poyet feels he can afford to be left dangling or needs to fill the left wing vacancy sooner.

Under new Premier League guidelines Hughton has to name his 25-man squad by September 1, the day after the window for permanent transfers closes.

It is all getting too silly.

The new Premiership squad size rules allow unlimited under 21 players (according to the BBC). I cannot see why that is being used as an excuse for this delay in Newcastle making their mind up.

It would have been nice to have had him back, but as a one trick pony (pace) and no end product, we would be better off looking to buy someone else who is not yet the finished article, as "one for the future", so long as they are able to give the other teams something to worry about.
