Their playing style isn't all that dissimilar than Sporting's was under Amorim, where Gyokeres was probably at his best compared to under the new chap where he isn't scoring as many goals from open play. Granted they might look at someone younger like Sesko but it boils down to who's available...

So you're saying that signing Florian Wirtz is off the table?

Bollocking was probably a bit strong. Reading between the lines of what Dean Austin has said previously on the club's stance on loans though, when he referenced the Ayari situation specifically, I suspect Brighton weren't particularly happy as the club would've likely given assurances about his...

Their biggest issue is last time they had a number of saleable assets they could use as collateral to buy their way back up to the PL. This time around I genuinely can't think of one player that would generate a decent fee.

The mistake fans make is they think football clubs are like any other business when they're not.

It's a lot harder for clubs to go completely bust nowadays. Fit and proper owners test, while incredibly basic, do block out a lot of the nutcases - if you want to see a classic case of why it works see the Chris Kirchner Derby County saga. Failed Derby County bidder Chris Kirchner jailed for...

I think that's right. Achieving financial sustainability is akin to finding a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow scenario. It's not within reach, and certainly not if you want to get anywhere in the sport.

No. Not allowed unless it's a season long loan and the club takes up the option to recall in Jan.

See above. Realised it was Boosh who posted a pic so probably is just a snap of his mate Craig Danny being too pissed to remember to wear a matching pair of shoes again.

Well I presume it's his ankle unless a WUM posted a random pic on the Rudoni injury thread.

That wasn't a guarantee, it was an all being well scenario. Plus his ankle seems to be twice the size of the other one to complicate matters.

It really isn't with Sheaf seemingly still struggling and Rudoni still out for several weeks.

You and me both. I still have no clue why you claim I was a Wasps fan... it's incredibly strange.

It's the parent club with the expectation, which is where the issue lies. I suspect the club got an absolute bollocking off Brighton for the Ayari situation and how they handled him. Not that it was particularly anyone's fault, Ayari just wasn't ready at the time. But this is where the loan...

I don't think Dyche is finished, he's just not a manager an established PL club would ever consider now. Like I said the game has completely passed him by and tactically he's prehistoric. He certainly could get a Championship job and I'd back his side to be in contention for promotion. But I...
