I for one am a very excitable Brighton fan, therefore whenever i hear the 'were about to sign someone for 3M but im not telling you who' i get hugely excited.

I appreciate those who know more than others and do actually have reliable sources post what they know on here, however sometimes people are just on a wind up.

I propose that should those who wish to post these rumours that are just wind ups and bullshit be shot

That is all

You'll find that most of the people on here that are in the know, can't be arsed to post anymore and just keep it to themselves. Also since Dick (massage my ego please) Knight moved on, a lot of peoples contacts were cut, as Tony Bloom isn't the sort to tell everyone how great he is, and what he's doing, unlike Dick who'd tell anyone who would listen what was going on. Sure people still have ways and links, but don't bother posting any more because of the abuse.

You'll will also find that most people who claim to know someone who works at the club, and was told by them, actually know f*** all in the terms of transfers. Hundreds "work" for Brighton, and very few know anything until the rest of us.

Luckerly for me my contact is still in place, and I heard some very interesting things, and dont think people will be disappointed come August. Even when I called a fews years back the Adams, Slade sackings in the week before they happened, the Coppell link which some still like to think never happen, and other managerial gossip, I still got abuse.

I would take any rumour on here with a pinch of salt, and just wait for the club to announce signings. Its less fun, but less hassle as well!

Wow! Luckerererery for you indeed! Your indisputable unmovable contact with the club forgot to inform you that Barnes would end up on the top scorer list for L1 2011 with a very respectable haul? Making you look like a Muppet for 6 months.

No, its a contact.

But the only top scorer list he'll end on next season will be the stiffs. One striker brought. One striker/winger brought. 2 more strikers on the way..... don't look good for ASh does it. 4th, 5th choice maybe? Maybe Poyet doesn't rate him either, and only played him because there was no one else last season..... Or maybe Barnes will be the number one striker and the other 3/4 including at LEAST two million pound men will battle it out to play with him...........................

We should be able to tag threads that contain rumour in the title and put them on ignore, just as we can to posters who we dislike.

I am only interested in seeing pictures of a player with a pen in his hand sat beside Mr Poyet.

The next season is a whole new ball game - Last season in L1 Barnes made you look like a mug? And who knows Mr. B, he may continue to mug you in The Champ. - as a fan we should only wish for our young stars to succeed?

And all this in a country of free speech. Good to see the NSC militants are still proactive

You are full of such shit. "ooh look at me I'm 'in the know'. Oh but I'm not going to tell you what I know I'll just make a few open ended guesses so I can point back to them when I
get it right because I'm so great".

Put up or shut up. I'm sure its not just me who's getting hacked off with all the posters claiming to know something but refusing to divulge it, it just gets boring.

Urgh. :tantrum: :moo::guitar::hilton::shootself

I am no militant Jimbo. I just get very excited when I hear these rumours. If you read my post I appreciate those who actually know a thing or 2 for sharing it with us. I just dont like people who are on a massive wind up and spout bullshit for the fun of it.

Free speech yes, just dont see why people would lie about things??

I think we've been there with this haven't we. Not worth chriping up now cocker!! Should have had your say when the other thread was still live. In your opinion he made me look a mug, in my opinion he only played because he was the best of a bad crop(no surprise after Murray went he was the only contracted striker at the club) and Micky Mouse could have scored a hatful in that team given the run he had. if we had the strikers we now have last year, Peter Wards record will be no more, and if ASh was good enough, a) he'd have broken it himself, and b) Poyet wouldn't be signing enough dstrikers to push him down to possibly 5th choice. And lets not forget, Poyet tried to sign strikers last season, which would have seen AShley pushed down the pecking order then, so I think even Lord Poyet doesn't think he's good enough otherwise he wouldn't have played a 19 year old loanee and still tried to sign more strikers would he?

Anyway get back on topic. If you want to open this old debate up, start a thread, I've still got plenty to say on it :lol:

And you are the sort of TWAT I was referring to, and why a lot of people dont post what they know. You only signed on last year, so probably missed what a lot of the "bigger boys" used to talk about. Dont want you to look at me, I couldn't give a f***, and I dont make i open ended guesses. If could guess Adams would go a few days before it was announced, and then follow it with Slade, to name but two I would be the NSC betting king. But you will note I dont start any threads like this any more, purely down to f***ing idiots like you.

There will be players lined up now who the club think will sign, and then pull out late on. If someone posts it before the deal collespes they get grief from wankers like you, and that's the point I am making, and which is why nearly all those that have decent info, just dont bother to post on here anymore.

Now f*** off and get your homework done, before you go out and play........

TBH I quite enjoy the rumour merry go round and take everything with a pinch of salt. There are certain posters who have more credibility and all these posters with with a few posts tend tob attention seeking wannabees!
