The biggest and best Brighton message board is due to a welcome return after disappearing from the Internet just before the end of the season!

The season ended over a month ago, and despite a number of financial gains the club have so far been unable to attract any new players to the club. However, McGhee believes the failure to make any progress in moving towards a permanent home is affecting the clubs hopes of signing players.

"If I was sitting talking to strikers and players this summer going into a 25,000 stadium, then it would be a different kettle of fish," McGhee told the Brighton Argus. "There is no doubt in my mind if we'd had a stadium we would have kept Dan Harding."

It has been revealed that Dan Harding could be leaving the Albion by the end of the month. After months without signing a new contract, McGhee has now valued the player at up to £2m.

Last month, Dick Knight was refusing to change the terms of Harding's offer for a new contract - it now seems he has signed a three year deal at Elland Road. He was supposed to be on a family holiday in Orlando, however he shortened this returning for a medical.
