Eddie's brother Andy Howe has a worringly large influence on the scouting team...

 

Jordan Ibe, Solanke were massive fees for players that did fuck all for Bournemouth at the time. Even Phillip Billing, Danjuma, Defoe on 100k - all did fuck all to save Howe/Tindall from relegation.

Who's your source for this?  You should tell them that Andy Howe is Eddie's nephew.

Stop being a clever cloggs. Andy Howe was Chief scout at Bournemouth the same time they spunked their PL millions on top 4 talents like Solanke, Ibe, Ake - Billing from a relegated Huddersfield.

 

It's clear to see when Howe started moving out his trusted players like Arter, Surman even Dan Gosling for likes of Phil Billing - it went to shit.

 

Even in 2024, via Spurs and Villareal - Howe would still trust Matt Ritchie over Danjuma. Trust. Dajuma got him relgated, Ritchie got him promoted twice.

Ramsey looks exactly the sort of player Howe would identify. But surely he’s going to be around £50m and we apparently don’t have a pot to piss in. 
 

Where are these bargains from overseas that Ashworth was brought in to identify?

Expand  


Im pretty sure his model was to predominantly get young, raw, talented players in and loan them out for a year or two. Eg Minteh.

 

Very few have gone straight into first team.

I wouldn’t take Howe at his word like…but if we’re selling Miggy to Saudi their window closes today 😬

 

Is Ashworth the recruitment guru or is he a policy and philosophy dude?… I honestly have no idea. If you listen to Brighton supporters it Tony Bloom who is the brains behind their brilliant recruitment policy. His betting company has access to underlying stats that others don’t apparently 🤷🏻‍♂️

The model was Tony Bloom's own data scouting hub - like he was at the FA, Ashworth was a very good middle-man.

 

Ashworth doesn't buy someone like Karou Mitoma from Japan - it's more down to Tony Bloom and his Brighton data scouting matrix

I still think our seeming over-reliance on a English based recruitment is going to fuck us.

 

Cliche, but Harvey Barnes will lierally be a new signing, Tino has barely played. 

 

I'm worried if we've got Hall that can't get a game ahead of Ritchie, and we are in for £50M for a player that Villa want to sell.

I would have been nice to see Gordon at least play at Wembley against Canada, or away against Malta...

 

Won the U21 Euro's, Player of Tournament, playing CL, scoring goals, best English natural winger even on the left - byline!

Wrong, very wrong. I've sadly watched Brighton play at the Withdean Stadium - I know who Tony Bloom is.

Theres absolutely nothing you could say beyond physical proof of match tickets and a time stamped photo of you in the crowd that day that would make me believe you weren’t lying about this :cuppa:
