[Albion] Pre-Season Tour 2025

[Greavsey]

Australia. On the Memories of Maty Ryan Tour.

 

[Driver 8]

Save your money for our next European Tour!

Anyone heard any rumours on this? It feels like the US competition won't include us this time

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

Probably do Japan again. Double down on last years tour, has to be profitable for us

I would be surprised, though an Asian tour wouldn't be a shock. Would much prefer US

I wouldn’t be surprised if we include South Korea as well as Japan in view of the young lad we signed from there. Another market to open up.

KM is Japanese. They do honourable. Even their agents. He'll fulfil his end of the contract. No pressure on TB to do likewise then...

So he walks for free at the end of his contract? Doesn't seem like the greatest bit of business from our point of view.

Kaoru is an exception to every rule!

The US.

Not one NSC’er will travel, to hurt Trump.

Expanded tour of Japan to cash in even further on MitomaMania. Unless of course the club is daft enough to sell him in order to service the bottom line

Please allow me to comment using your post. I cannot but feel that this is disturbing exploitation of the player by Tony Bloom, the club and their fans if what you think is the majority view. Mitoma is not Brighton's "property", nor is he a slave to the owner who might want to imprison him and squeeze the most juice out of him until he became physically tattered and financially unprofitable. (Hope TB is not like Levy or Giner.)
He is a well educated, mature, thoughtful individual, who, as most other Brighton players, has aspirations to be the best professional footballer as he can be, not much different from non-footballers under contract who hope to pursue their career advancements. The Japanese fans are not fools. Some can see what type of business Brighton are running, and are weary.

Hope you would maintain respect to Japan, the Japanese fans and the player, as well as to other non British players playing for Brighton and their respective countries.
