Good Old Sussex By The Sea! Although I don’t get back much these days, I went to Liverpool as a student and stayed. I founded the Scouse Seagulls in the 90s and have been to most grounds in the NW. To quote my brother in law, “We’ve come a long, long way together!”

Brighton are an incredibly well run club, although not quite profitable, I think Tony Bloom currently underwrites about £10M a season. He has given the club the best part of £250M building the stadium, academy and getting us to where we are today. Long term the aim is for the club to be...

Yes we sold White to Arsenal for £50M, but we had cover and arguably better players. Cucarella is a bit special and we don’t have cover for him, so our valuation will be higher, maybe even as high as £60M.

He’s played virtually 90 minutes of every game last season. He never seems to stop running, he is a top class wing back, with a beautiful first touch. Brilliant defensively but then charges off down the wing, overlapping and getting crosses into the box. He was the player's player and fan’s...

Last time Bloom sold a player that we really didn’t want to lose was Ulloa in 2014 to Leicester for £10M when we were in the Championship.

Not sure, I’m a Brighton fan. I know Leeds thought they could buy Ben White with £30M but he ended up going to Arsenal for £50M.

City will need to pay £50M + add ons, so maybe you’ll get better value else where. White went to Arsenal for £50M but we had cover for him, not so Cucarella. He was our player of the season and has four years left on his contract, so Mr Bloom will have his serious poker face on. You may not even...
