I see the club managed to spell his name incorrectly in the release: it's Hünemeier not Hunemeier. If they don't want to put in the umlaut, then it's Huenemeier.

Not a good start

they will probably tipex it in later

Firstly kudos to [MENTION=20585]Urchin[/MENTION]

Secondly this looks, on paper, like a really strong signing. I know we still need a winger or two and I don't want to reignite the number 10 thing here again but, to use an old phrase, Keep The Faith.

Breaking news my arse it's a day late it was on here first. I go to NSC for news first and then to the Brighton Web-site mind you then you have to work it out is it true or false and is it a wind up.:drama:

He looks like a young Paul Weller.

How about the Modfather for a nickname?

I want this potential new signing to be Dunks new partner, but realistically I know its too replace him.

Sadly, I fear this is the case. I've been told Dunk is off, the source is normally fairly spot on. I think we'll find this is Dunk's replacement and Rea will be sitting on the bench.

Hope I am wrong with what I have been told, because as the above has stated this would really be a good bit of business.#

The reason why I think he would go, from my point of view....

Greer is the captain, so wont step down to the bench, nor will Dunk. Uwe is a former captain and would not want to be sitting 3rd fiddle, someone will need to lose a place and with the bid(s) for Dunk and additional outside interest then you can guess the the club (FFP and all that) would look to sell. You can't keep all 3 happy imo.

We will still need another as cover if Dunk goes, I remember last season when, due to yellow cards, we were very close to missing both Dunk and Greer at the same time. Minor injury/suspensions could leave us in trouble

Update on Uwe Hunemeier. Expected to sign today, subject to medical, as replacement for Aaron Hughes, not Dunk. Fee around £1.4m. #bhafc

Sorry, couldn't see this. AN is confident, as am I. Greer is old, and will pick up injuries. Uwe might even be better, who knows?

We were clearly getting Uwe anyway.

No way was this a rushed ' quick we need a replacement urgently ' type signing.

If Dunk goes, he'll be replaced ( although maybe with a loan ).
