Owen Garvan (merged)

[BensGrandad]

Brighton & Hove Albion
Ambrose is expected to put pen to paper on a 4 year deal with newly promoted Brighton & Hove Albion after agreeing terms. The transfer fee is reported to be in the region of £2,000,000 with add ons and other clauses.

Is that from the rumours site or something more substantial.

That is stated in Wikipedia. Sorry, I don't know how to link.

Destroyer

Believe me, Garvan couldn't even destroy an ant.

So a central midfield consisting of two Palace rejects is going to get you promoted is it? Good luck with that!

lol, because two players who would play better in a more attractive-football-ing side.

So your STAR striker as an Albion reject is going to save you? Good luck with THAT!

That Ambrose thing is blatantly a wind up, although 'likes to think he's ITK' Mark by the Sea has also posted on Argus we will be getting Ambrose and Garvan for a deal worth 2m and this could be the two players we are expected to sign this week.

A load of bollocks though I reckon.

Your midfield will get pasted if they're your central pairing, believe me. You need strength and athleticism in the middle of the park in this division. Garvan has neither. I'm not just saying this - it's a fact, which Ipswich fans will back up.

Ahhh, now. We didn't want to keep Bridcutt or Garvan, you wanted to keep Murray. Garvan was a bench warmer for us, Murray was a regular for you. Some subtle differences there. Don't let the facts get in the way though, Sammy.

I thought that Ambrose was supposed to be your best midfielder. Garvan could follow the example of many players who were not good enough with 1 manager but the bees knees with another, who knew how to play them to their best ability. Yes Murray was a regular and we would love to have kept him as back up not first choice as the 2 we have bought are both better, as they will prove, but Murray wasn't prepared to be bit player from the bench hence he joined you for a regular starting position plus a higher wage than we offered him. That was simply because Gus didn't value him as high as your joke manager does. What will happen when you struggle and at Christmas your board sack Freedman and bring in another manager.

I'll assume you didn't see Bridcutt play last season, but at times he was the best player in our team. This being one that one the league easily, so he'll be able to handle the championship.

Excellent logic. You clearly have a thorough understanding of football.

I would imagine only one of Bridcutt or Garvan (probably Bridcutt to start with) will be in our starting 11, Garvan will be signing as back up. We have Dicker, Sparrow & Buckley all ahead of Garvan if he signs and we are still in the market for more players so don't delude yourself thinking our midfield is going to be lightweight and not a match for your lot. You seem intent on getting more mileage out of your star signing Murray who we didn't value enough to keep so were happy to let go but hey keep going with that. Your last line makes no sense at all, we are paying good money for good players whilst you are scrabbling around signing players no-one has ever heard of but they are massive international stars aren't they

I thought this was a sensible post after the first couple of sentences, but then you really let yourself down.

We're not predicting a top 6 finish like some deluded fools in this league. We will be happy finishing mid table and continuing our progress under a young manager who has shown a lot of promise in his short time in charge. No matter where we are at Christmas, Freedman will be here for the longrun.

Enjoy being frustrated by Garvan's lack of athleticism and effort x

We didn't want to keep Bridcutt

Firstly, at no stage was Bridcutt ever yours 'to keep'. He had a trial there, and it never got to the point that they discussed terms. A trial works both ways.

When was the trial anyway? During Burley's time? The old soak was probably pissed up at the time, so I wouldn't value his judgement too highly.

Hmm, I don't remember Will Hoskins or Craig Mackail Smith playing at the World Cup. Funny that.

I'm also enjoying the fickleness of Brighton fans, who always loved to bring up our "overspending" - up until now. Funny old game.

Would that be because you or your extra rich owners cannot get or afford a better manager: Lets wait and see what happens as regards Freedman.

So a manager you hated and said wrecked your team buying crap was correct in not giving Bridcutt a contract? Bless

We had him on trial for a few games last pre-season. He looked far too lightweight for this league (yes I was present at these friendlies) and we declared we wouldn't be signing him. I guess the proof will be in the pudding this season eh?

 

[Betfair Bozo]

Bridcutt a Palace reject eh, we have dealt with this one before. Ian Wright was a Brighton reject. Every club makes mistakes. Your club made a huge error in not offering terms to Bridcutt, it really isn't something to crow about.
