What has Bloom actually done?

Oh, he hasn’t done anything wrong like Levy hasn’t done anything wrong. But I don’t think Spurs and City have the best relationship between pl clubs.

Have you emailed supporter services to let them know?

I have indeed. I emailed about 6 weeks ago, I'm awaiting the reply.

Levy sold us Walker. He’s no different to any other chairman when there’s a deal/negotiation to be made.

Levy didn’t want to sell Kane last summer, so he didn’t.

Is Khaldoon a bad chairman for telling Barca to fuck off regarding Bernardo?

Ringing?? Does that still exist? Not only have we gone to near cashless society but we've also gone to talking to robots on the phone.

Ringing is old school my friend :-)

You also need a spare 10 days to actually get through.

The funny part is ^^^^this post isn't far from the truth!

What are the realistic alternatives?

Not overly keen on Sosa from the little I've seen of him. Raum has looked good the couple of times I've watched him but neither of them look great defensively and that's something I was looking forward to with Cucurella.

Are there any other well rounded options out there?

I hope we get Cucurella as he looks good both defensively and offensively . Only seen Raum a few times but he looks particularly impressive going forward, brings back fond memories of Michael Tarnat.

Why is it silly to offer £30m, dont you think that had we started at £50m then Bloom would have asked for £60m+

Only fools and horses missed an episode here :-)

We should offer them the "heads or tails" deal...Let Maupay make the call, He's thick as shit.

I’m of firm belief that we haven’t bid £30mil at all, we know it’d be flatly refused and we know your price is £50mil.

I think the truth is far nearer what was mentioned in here the other day where we are somewhere in the region of £37mil down with £12mil of add ons.

Just being stage managed to keep everyone happy.

All this "stage managed" / "playing out in the media" bollox, is just that.
Brighton don't give a fuck if their fans are 'happy' with any of their in/out transfer fees.
City don't give a fuck if we are 'happy' with any of ours.
...If you believe it's "stage managed" then it makes fuck all difference to you how any deal is reported to be done ;)

I think plenty of players go for a fair price…particularly as it’s subjective.

Are Bloom and Benham still enemies or have they made up?

Not sure, when we play Brentford he is always in rhe away fans, but he iften does this, as far as i know he said he wouldnt go into the boardroom for a drink with him, however we got Maupay from them.

 

[yeah whatever !!]

I dont know why u sold zinchenko, maybe u thought your bid would be accepted at 30m. Personally ive always said £40m is a good price, i still find that though is more than he is worth, all players are over priced imo. Its Bloom who decides at the end of the day, a big risk i know, but its his money and his club. If its £50 with add onz it sounds good but you will say he wanted £50 upfront, we will say we mugged u off because we got the 50 million.
Yes it will be sad to see him go, but thats football, i said the same about Peter Ward in 1981 .

wasnt the same player without (Spider)Mellor as Forest soon found out.

I don’t put any emphasis on if he is good or bad. City are very keen on building relationships with clubs they deal with. They have said that they don’t like dealing with Levy because of his constant moving of goal posts.

I get the feeling that 30m was the price that Bloom put on Cucu when they started negotiating. Now he’s moved the goal posts. This is my guess.

I seriously wonder how some people think.

Who is benefiting from playing fake bids ?

 

[Berts Neck]

Maguire, Koulibaly...then Dias. Rags bought Phil Jones we bought Kun Aguero..Say no more, City know what they are doing.

Maybe, but that’s all it is, a guess.

If it had been £30m to start with, he’d be a City player by now, in my humblest of opinions.

I doubt either City or Brighton are that arsed about anything barring getting the best deal for their respective clubs.

 

[yeah whatever !!]

Shouldn't it be Brighton isn't bullied by Man City??? Its you that have approached us its you that want a player contacted to us. Why is saying no to you means we are bullying you?

Football fans is all fella, we dont like it when our players get undervalued by those wishing to pursue them.
Shouldnt take it personally tbh.

Twitter bullshit merchants, mostly.

Ric’s ad revenue potential too.
