So were the fans who used to abuse Knight at every chance. The vitriol hurled at him during home games by people who should have been pleased we had a talented goalscorer was close to disgraceful.

I don't think anyone can blame him for the way he has spoken about Brighton since leaving, considering the all round treatment he got when he was here.

agreed

The trouble is that we have some so called supporters who are now doing the same sort of thing towards some of our current squad, wait til the player has had enough of it and leaves, i bet you might get some similar type of quotes from them too, or the surprise from someof those fans moaning about the loanees if they then decide against signing as a result.

Is your name actually Micky Adams?

A decent manager could have embraced Knight's ability.

I honestly think his time here at Withdean was a crossroads in his career. Sadly for him, and ultimately us, we know which way it went.

But, for one season or more he was on fire.

Can't disagree with that.

Everyone - EVERYONE - embraced Leon Knight's ability. Managers, players, fans - the lot.

Everyone at the club (including Coppell), bar his little gang, despised his attitude and his manner.

Anyone solely blaming his time at Brighton for his subsequent fall from grace through the divisions is living in a fantasy state.

Meopham, Kent.
And who selected to take Paul McCarthy on loan rather than Roy Keane?


That is re-writing history, seeing as it was Paul McCarthy who recommended to the club that we take a look at Roy.

well in that f***ing spirit. was it mullers who chose robert codner ahead of ian wright?

I think it was Chris Cattlin who chose Steve Penney over Ian Wright.......& Penney was a full international long before Wright, he also played in the 1986 world cup finals.
