timmmytimtimtim 0 Posted August 9, 2016 A peice from the local Brighton rag, about Sinclair but have manged to shoe horn Pritchard in there... my favourite parts are...... Now consider the case of Alex Pritchard and his aborted move to Albion, hijacked at the eleventh hour by Norwich.It was a tawdry deal.... .....Pritchard''s behaviour was grubby too. He would have us believe making his bird of choice a Canary rather than a Seagull was "purely a football decision".www.theargus.co.uk/sport/14669626.Talking_Point__Pritchard_rich_in_promise_but_could_end_up_like_Sinclair/?ref=mr&lp=2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
king canary 7,562 Posted August 9, 2016 That article makes zero sense. The Sinclair comparison is just baffling- he moved to Man City, a club with bottomless reserves of cash and a team full of internationals so he was always unlikely to get into the first team. Pritchard has moved to Norwich, who don''t as a rule go around splashing £8m on players to sit on the bench.I''ve seen this mentioned by a few at Brighton that they think he''d play more there. That could be true but do they honestly think our squad is so strong that he''s going to be bench warming? Seems unlikely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lake district canary 4,531 Posted August 9, 2016 There''s a pecking order in football and in this case we are higher up than Brighton and it''s easy to see why. Canaries are more intelligent, attractive and more desirable than seagulls and Pritchard could obviously see that. Just as well Crystal Palace didn''t swoop for him.......

wcorkcanary 4,329 Posted August 9, 2016 Not like you to go poking your beak in LDC, but i can see that we''ve ruffled a few feathers, silly of Bton to count their chicks before their eggs have hatched. whoever is in charge of finding young talon down there was asleep on the nest.

Lessingham Canary 99 Posted August 9, 2016 Im with you Corky, don''t know who hatched this theory of theirs, sometimes clubs just have to spread their wings and swoop when the time is right, think the south coast has gone a bit cuckoo the last week or so, suppose they will be owling for weeks to come, me and my chick will be preying for them.

wcorkcanary 4,329 Posted August 9, 2016 Dead right Lesso, if Prichard was winging his way to the Seagulls,how did we get our claws into him ? it must be hard for them to swallow so we mustn''t crow about it.A parrot ly, Robin Sainty reported that Pricthard fills the gap between our fledglings and our senior flock.

Hairy Canary 667 Posted August 9, 2016 I don''t see how they can accuse Prichard of feathering his nest when all they were offering was chicken feed. We swooped while they were swanning around and now the yokes on them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lessingham Canary 99 Posted August 9, 2016 He has now well and truly flown that nest, he will have the crowds flocking to see him in the yellow of the canaries, and by the time pigeon post arrives in Brighton Hughton could give a pluck ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lessingham Canary 99 Posted August 9, 2016 They have complained that its not fair, we have an advantage thanks to the sparrow chute payments...... anyway the money they saved by missing out on Pritchard they could invest in the stork market or Steven Seagull''s new movie.
