That’s a gross exaggeration ffs he was decent hardly outstanding and only for a very short period anyway.

Its not the selling ,they do that, its the buying that is the problem.
Unanimous MOTM one game.
That is outstanding.

It's the negative effect it will have on the others,
Nowt against Watson but he shouldn't be involved around the team when he is effectively not a safc player anymore

A few observations.
1 - the timing of this stinks and something about it doesn’t sit right.
2 - disappointed with the lad but if he wants a big pay cheque then so be it. Many of us would make the same choice.
3 - we should only play him now if it’s absolutely necessary. No way should he start any game ahead of an in contract player that needs minutes (e.g Aleksic).
4 - Ian Harte is a C**t
5 - Brighton are a well managed club but it still hurts to sell to a club like that. We’ll come again though. Our time will come.

He’s played in 15 senior games yet people on here go on like it’s the second coming or summat. He’s bang average at the minute, may or may not improve but £10m is good business anyone who doesn’t see that needs a reality check.
According to the internet(?) Ross Stewart who was sold for pretty much the same fee is on £20K a week. Jack Clarke sold for about £15M is on £25K.
Perhaps Tommy will be on about the same as Ross Stewart?

I imagine to become an instant millionaire with a chance of playing Premier and European football
Number 4 is probably the most relevant factor tbh.
Well he wouldnt get in before Mundle
Never been convinced by him. Not at all bothered he’s leaving. All about opinions though mate.

You typed the text below. SAFC did develop Watson, if he wants to leave then what can the club do? Patto and Neil followed a similar path to the 1st team, so if he had decided to stay then he could have as many appearances in the future.
The club probably were prepared to play him for more than a handful of games. It’s been his decision.

If we can't, or aren't willing, to promote, develop and play talented and promising home-grown players that are dyed-in-the-wool fans of the club for more than a handful of games then what's the f***ing point?

No difference than working a months notice. Won’t make any difference one bit. It’s not like he’s the star player.

What must go up goes down….Brighton bought a solid player at this level I fully expect him to do well but Brighton will find the trap door again one of these seasons
