They're just former players employed as pundits to make sensational
that'll be chip paper after a few days.The only credible one there today was Jeff Stelling.
We'll always be bobbing under the radar.

Stelling: Why would Brighton sell a player and weaken their chances at their first ever shot at Europe?
Merson: But why wouldn't Brighton roll out the red carpet to help Arsenal win the title?
The problem of employing ex-players as pundits personified in one man.

Personally i think our return for what we did was taking what was a good player and turning him into a world class player . But money wise we will see a decent profit with Tony handling the cards .
Some nice replies from Brighton fans to Caicedo's agents
Interesting that experienced journalists like such as Naylor and Winter have really picked up on this imbecilic organisation where as corporate sponsored ‘half’ journalists like Jacobs won’t dare criticise them.
It seems to me that even if Arsenal or Chelsea manage to wave enough money under the nose of TB to make him interested, this outfit have neither the experience, ability, integrity or just plain gumption to be able to pull off an £80m+ transfer.
As soon as Moises had hired this outfit, he’d forfeited his chance of a January move by hiring a clown squad. I honestly believe that they don’t reach the level of competence needed for our club to deal with them (or even communicate with them) over an aggressive transfer out of our club.
Too late for Moises to change now, but he might want to think about it for the summer.

‘Magnificent opportunity’ sounds more and more like an Alibaba Sales Email.
‘ Hello, we have a ‘magnificent opportunity’ for you to purchase from our Shanghai warehouse an incredible batch of 15,000 Wi-Fi connected talking panda bears.’
Pish!

He had put on about 3 stone by the second game.
He probably could and I hope he stays but he also knows that in that six months he could have a career ending injury.
Jeff: So how do you think Caicedo would do if he were to make the leap from a club where he's guaranteed a start, to a club where he isn't?
Paul: So you're saying Brighton and Arsenal are about level?
Jesus, he's brain dead. How on earth does he have a job?

That’s astonishing.
My money`s on the suppose
How many players have career ending injuries at 21? I’d love to know the percentage. I could get his by a bus tomorrow, doesn’t mean it would enter my head when making a career decision.
So our two years tracking him and courting him for a possible move to us was for nothing , all the while several other teams including United gave up on him while we sent people over to talk about his future and assure his family we`d take care of him was worth nothing to you ? .
Then we brought him and some of his family to Brighton and found a home for him and again assured his family he would be looked after . We trained him looked after his health through diet and training , all the time making sure he had Spanish speakers around to help him while teaching him English .
Then after a lot of good coaches helped him progress and loaned him to Beerschot after which we involved him in the 1st team for which he was a permanent fixture . But apparently greed took over and he wanted to sell the club that had done all this for him , and gave him the chance not even Utd would down the road for a quick payday .
He should have done the decent thing and waited until summer for his move with our blessings , instead he would rather see the Albion`s best EVER season in their history go down the shitter for a payday with a 5th rate agent to a 6th rate team .
No your right , what have we done for him
You are aware of how our club operate. MC is an investment and always was. Great whilst he's here but he is always going to be sold on. My comment about nurturing was aimed at another post and as I said it seemed to suggest we'd been managing his career for ages. Compare the way we nurtured Ben White's trajectory and it's very different.As for your comments about diet, where did you get that? Was he on a terrible diet at his previous club?
Not quite sure how to take the rest of what you say. We've looked after our investment. That's it.
Yes, he could wait until the summer but you will still get the same idiots ranting then as they are now. Look at the Cucurrela episode to prove that.
Pretty certain that it's been this way ever since Bosman however, from our perspective, we've never previously been in a position of having so many riches at the club so it hasn't really affected us.
Not many but like I said earlier, one of his team mates has and that would be on his mind. He could move to Arsenal and still get an injury but then his compo will be based on that salary rather than his current one.
Think your reference to you being hit by a bus isn't relevant. Unless of course you're on a zero hours contract with no benefits and you have the opportunity to take a job on with 5 times the salary, guaranteed hours, health plan for you, your wife and kids and maybe a death in service benefit of 4 times your salary.
So he could sign a new deal with us that gives him a lot more than £30k a week for the next 5 years, and also a release clause if a big enough offer comes in.
