Aron mooy
Signs for shanghai. Strange move. Thought he was a key player at Brighton. I’d have had him here.

A steady player but not one that I ever saw the hype in.

Re: Aron mooy
Hardly a key player, didn't even play in half their games last season.
Good luck to him though, I thought he was an excellent player at Huddersfield.

Re: Aron mooy
Brighton manager said: ”It’s a good move for all parties. We have a number of really good players in that position and therefore Aaron goes with our blessing."
I never did get the hype with him . I'm assuming Brighton were committed to signing him permanently in January after the loan.

Tony Hancock had a good game against us for Stockport in 1989 so we signed him. Apparently it was the only good game he had for Stockport and he certainly didn't have any good games for us.Bin Ont Turf wrote: ↑Sat Aug 29, 2020 10:51 amLikewise.
All down to him having a good game against us for Huddersfield I think.

Re: Aron mooy
And then we went and watched him and watched him and watched him and he kept turning in good performances. We were also keen to sign the Bournemouth left back Warren Cummings but he picked up a serious injury a few weeks later and didn't play again for 18 months. But then we got Spicer and O'Connor too from them. We did well really to get one really good signing out of three.matttheclaret wrote: ↑Sat Aug 29, 2020 10:54 amWade Elliott had a good game against us so we signed him too.

A couple of other players we signed on the back of cup performances against us.
Doug Collins (Grimsby) 1968
Kevin Glendon (Hyde) 1983

Re: Aron mooy
Strange one with Garreth O'Connor. He started off really well but after a couple of months his form fell off a cliff and never got it back again. Didn't he score in about five straight games at one point? At that stage, I thought he was a better signing than Elliott. That quickly changed!ClaretTony wrote: ↑Sat Aug 29, 2020 11:00 amAnd then we went and watched him and watched him and watched him and he kept turning in good performances.

Re: Aron mooy
I think we all thought that O'Connor was going to the best of the three and Spicer also started really well after he signed. I think O'Connor had off field issues and his career just came to an end very early. When Cotterill left, Coyle gave him another chance; it lasted one short substitute appearance.matttheclaret wrote: ↑Sat Aug 29, 2020 11:05 amStrange one with Garreth O'Connor.

As for Wade, I know Cotterill's respect for him just grew and grew because he was a player who was prepared to work hard at his game and I think we all saw him just improve and improve. I wasn't surprised at all when Cotterill signed him for Bristol City.

Didn't we sign Berisha because of his outstanding game for Albania against England at the Turf?

Re: Aron mooy
Not a cup game, but Ian Moore.
I remember Cotterill’s signings (almost) all had the thing in common of a record of scoring goals from whatever position they played, like Brazil from the ‘82 World Cup. Forgive the comparison, but I’ve always thought it’s like a man who dates a variety of women who look and behave differently but all have impeccable butts. Cotterill achieved his peak team with Bristol City, who scored lots of goals from all over the pitch when promoted to the Championship under him.

Re: Aron mooy
Mooy looked like a very good player at Huddersfield but they were never a decent side by PL standards - don't think he was ever better than any of our regular CMs over the same period

Re: Aron mooy
He was a good egg at Huddersfield 1 of the standout performers, he was 1 of the type of players high end championship but maybe not quite good enough for the PL maybe a struggling premier league side, Brighton are no shakes & he couldn't command a consistent starting slot says it all.

Feb 1 1913
FA Cup 4th Round at Turf Moor,
Burnley 4, Gainsborough Trinity 1
Directly after the match, Burnley signed Gainsborough's goalkeeper Ronnie Sewell, and both full backs, Cliff Jones and Sam Gunton. The following season, Ronnie Sewell stood in for Jerry Dawson in the 1914 Cup Final, and after WW1, Cliff Jones won a League Championship medal with the Clarets.

One of the best 'good game against us' signings was Doug Collins after we played Grimsby in the cup I think it was. I've just checked his details, he was seventy five yesterday, Gee Whiskers I'm getting old.

Re: Aron mooy
I saw him a fair bit during Huddersfield promotion season as my father in law often had a spare ticket for their Tuesday night games.
He was brilliant that year for them. Ran the show.
No better than what we already have though.
A strange move but he probably wasn’t earning much at all until he signed for hudds permanently. He was a late comer to a decent level of football so he probably wants to get some cash. It’s a long time retired for footballers

Re: Aron mooy
Ball playing mobile centre mid, eye for a pass, right age... money talks though and I would guess it suits Brighton for him to move abroad rather than any other lower half prem side.
