They will likely get 100 million for mac allister aloneI think only Brentford and Forest are the only clubs in the prem who don't have billionaire owners. Not sure Brighton's model is particularly groundbreaking. Obviously they're well ran but a quick look on transfermarkt (not sure how accurate this is) would suggest the market value of their squad is around £300 million.
Yes. There’s more to it than luck obviously - but they’ve been lucky to bring in players who’ve overachieved (Cucurella, Maupay), sold them well and have a few more budget gems who will go for good money (Mac Allister, Caciedo, Trossard).The luck in signings does run out eventually though, Southampton likely to be the next example of the conveyor belt eventually running dry
In the meantime I can see Brighton and Brentford staying in the premier league for at least a decade by which time their income will be well over a billion in that time. Times change as well as the old order of things.In those days Brighton and Brentford fans were wondering how they might stay in the football league. At the time they were marvelling at the “Boro model” (local young chairman who loves the area with cash on the hip). Times change, and before we know it, Brentford and Brighton will be rubbish again. Like Swansea are, who were once deemed a “well run club who play good football etc” not long ago. Stoke too. Neither of them made a UEFA Cup final though.
Well horses for courses but I can’t see that at all.In the meantime I can see Brighton and Brentford staying in the premier league for at least a decade by which time their income will be well over a billion in that time. Times change as well as the old order of things.
What is the matter with you?he is not.
But he is now a billionaire.i was just pointing out that Tony Bloom is not a Billionaire, and he isnt, he may well be soon enough, but he isnt at the moment.
his father and grandfather have a long history of business operations in Sussex, privately educated, some would say he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth - the most important thing with the Lizard, is he is a very decent human being.

The Tony Bloom story
Those who know Brighton and Hove Albion's owner help tell his story as he turns 50...theathletic.com
its not a recent piece, but his history and background hasnt changed - the data he uses is the same principled data system he uses to buy players, every detail and hence some very good success.
Whats up wiv Billog an Wolviston?Don’t forget as well a big pull will be the proximity of Brighton to London, I would imagine more players gravitate towards living Cobham/Oxshot way than Ditchling (beautiful though it is).
I think you mean $1.3 billion.What is the matter with you?
He is worth $1.3m nett, so a billionaire however you want to put it.
He is why Brighton are where they are, doing what they are doing. Local self made man doing things very well.
Thats the key question.I wonder what B&H fc is worth, or put another way, how much could he sell it for?
