Simon Adingra 🇨🇮 Signed!

[Rob the Ref]

Looks like another good signing, regardless if we don’t stay up.

January we were still a Championship team. Now we are Premier League. Is it that hard?

See my response to other comment. Not trying to be stupid. Suppose just shows the attention of the prem. everything else is the same, location etc

 

[TZMouk]

Not that odd really

What's changed since January like

 

[unfairadvantage]

We were in the championship and he preferred PL football

As I say fair point. Shows he didn’t turn us down because we aren’t London area I suppose!

Think I have dug myself into a hole here

Another 5 year contract so completely covered if these all end up being totally amazing.

I thinks more for psr than anything

We stay up.

Would rather a team of British players then a load of foreigners

Dear me. Do people still have such attitudes?

I would rather we have good players, wherever they come from.

I'm sort of with @safcb88 (though god I hope he's 37 years old) in that it means more if your players are local and grew up supporting the club.

I'd rather have a midfield of Neil and Henderson because they're our guys.

Once they're not fans, I don't care that much if they're from Kent or Kenya like. Both means they're essentially mercenaries.

So by your reckoning Charlie Hurley and Luke O9 are just mercenaries, right? Seriously mate. Think.

Relieved you’ve deleted your account as I would knack you

He's deleted his member. He was doing so well n'all.

 

[Nil desperandum]

Ah ffs that has killed the mood.

I'll be the first to welcome him, but a Brighton cast off doesn't over.inspire me

Exactly. Some of our biggest cult heroes weren't local lads...Hurley, Ball, O'Nein, Quinn, Arca etc

How the ferk is he a cast off in any way? Not like we swapped him for Poveda

It would never happen but I'd love to see a first 11 from the academy play for us .

We've done really well in recent years going down the academy route and whilst we have to be ruthless it will be a bit shit if we totally abandon that route

Judging by some of the posts in here and the Henderson thread, I reckon asking some on here to think, you might be hard pressed

It's been great seeing the local lads develop and play a massive part in getting us promoted, one of favourite times ever as a Safc fan. The Premier League means we will probably have to leave that behind which is a shame, but nothing stays the same for ever and as they say, the only constant is change. I hope the bulk of last years team still get some serious minutes on the pitch this season (which may be difficult looking at our exciting new signings!)

Agree mate. And I think they'll all have a part to play which I'm happy about.
