Hoping it's not true but does seem likely now. Been my favourite player since he turned the game against Doncaster - what a fantastic memory that is ... a perfect redemption in the 97th minute!

Poyet sat in the dug out against Palace and could not give a s**t, I will never forgive him for that.
he did sign that Ignacio Scocco, a player he had wanted at Brighton, who failed to do anything at Sunderland after signing for more than £3 million, and will leave at a significant loss. He also wants to sign Borini for like £14 million, has just signed Rodwell for £10 million, spent £2.5 million on Bridcutt and this is just to mention a few of his signings.

£2.5 million for Buckley is a gift.
Snap their hands off.

I'm normally very positive about everything Albion but currently it's all a bit worrying with departures and not much glimmer of anything coming the other way.
Let's hope we have a few new players in for the weekend.

Buckley, Ulloa, Bridcutt. Good players, but they didnt win us promotion. I just hope the money is there to buy new players who will win us promotion, but if not, well its not as if the ground has been sold and we are ground sharing with Gillingham is it.

I did. So it's now Sammi's fault for not playing him on Saturday? Strange sort of article...

Never came close? If we upped our final bid by £200k we'd have got VVD. He was a youngster at the time so wages wouldn't have been a big problem. Would have bossed our defence for a few years then moved on for a handsome fee. You know this is all true
At the time, we were competing with Everton and Newcastle for this 'unknown' Van Dijk. The excellent tribalfootball contains all the original links in date order, with clubs far bigger than us linked with him well before that. Or: refuse to let the facts get in the way of the signing that was never going to happen

Lets hope no one comes in with a 3m bid for KLL or we wont have any pace or attacking flair left.

He'll be leaving for a free at the end of the season, expect him to be gone by the end of January.

Van Dijk was never going to join us. Time to stop lamenting about stories in the Poyet era, and move forward.

Just break the bank for Bennett. We've built up a significant wad of cash now. Would fit into Sami's formation if that's what he's going to persist with.

He won't be a happy bunny you can be assured of that,wouldn't be surprised to see him gone soon.
Not so sure. He's likely to get more game time this season which was his main gripe I thought.
