Too true 68! Brighton splash far more cash than us - have something we don't which is called ambition - will pay decent money - are in the best league in the world whilst we entertain Bolton and Preston - have generous owners - have a highly ambitious manager with experience and would leave the donkeys on the seafront ie Robson Kanu, Barry, Myhill, Brunt, Hegazi, Bartley......

Also to compare Brighton which is a lovely place with the famous " The Lanes" to West Bromwich is like comparing Salah to Robson Kanu!

Barry and Brunt are not and never have been donkeys. Over the hill maybe but donkeys never.
You have nothing good at all to say about our club or the players EVER. Yet you make out you are it's biggest supporter just because you've done a few away games.

Also it bores the life out of me when people bang on about money. We spent more cash than we've ever done in our history last summer and got relegated. We had players earning over £100k per week. We bought in a manager on big money. We will never be able to compete in the premiership on money alone. Unless some big hitter comes in and buys us Man City style.

Its not money that cost us, it was decision making. We bought questionable players and a dodgy manager in.

The only way we will progress as a club is to be run correctly from the top down. And to develop our own players. We need to scour the market for younger versions of Brunt and Barry. I hope this new Director of football is fantastic at his job.

Leicester won the league with Marhrez who cost £400k and Vardy taken from Non league. Not by trying to outspend teams.

Ashworth authorised as many bad signings as good ones.

I don't think he was the panacea we need now.

Good luck to Luke dowling and let's hope he doesn't ignore a scout who felt the need to resign after his recommendation to buy van dijk was dismissed and he has the b alls to say no when a club like rb liepzig are insisting on a permanent deal for player they know he is sh it, just because our then manager wants him rangnick assures him like car salesman that he is a "great player".

It looks like we are going back to the old way where the manager is just the coach which in turn puts the td under pressure to find gems to sign.

Coming from the most negative and Pulis hating supporter around - must have been the days in the Brummie that got you a tad bitter! Good you are still on here though as opposed to chucking the rattles out of the pram again!

Are you going to Preston - you must be as over 3,000 are going? Shall we meet for a pre match pint?

If you can't make it and washing your hair - how about Sheffield Wednesday or Wigan? Pre match pint?

Three options there! Go on - you know you want to!
