Yes, he is, is I believe the correct answer! Quite a pleasant shade, IIRC.

Shame his form tailed off when he signed permanently - how's he doing now? Think there was a pretty decent footballer in there somewhere.

Declan Rice Phillips. Although it was mentioned the other day that there is no such player, I made them Google it & it just proved that I have no idea about any player unless they play or have played for Brighton.
I won the argument about Chuba Akpom last week though! :clap:

It’s a cadence thing isn’t it? Some full names trip off the tongue nicely others don’t.

My pet peeve has always been the use of ….Football Club that’s crept in. Yes guys, we’re not playing netball or cricket here so I think we can dispense don’t you?! All an act to make summarisers appear more intelligent than they perhaps otherwise are. I don’t know why but I irrationally blame Lee Hendrie for this particular trait.
