Goodbye Bobby. It's sad to see you go but you have brought huge pleasure to thousands of Brighton and Hove Albion fans.

Everyone in the city knew you would be targeted by a Premiership club, especially once Albion slid into the Second Division.

Seagulls were lucky to keep you for so long when you were such a wonderful goal scorer.

At least you have gone to Spurs, a club with tradition and talent where fans will acknowledge your silky skills.

The £1.5 million fee is less than might have been expected but the transfer market is flat at the moment.

Even with the contribution to Bristol Rovers, the money will still be welcome to a hard-pressed club which will now be able to go shopping in the transfer market.

Albion concluded one of their best bargains when they bought you from the West Country outfit and you have seldom disappointed the fans.

When you were injured last year, Albion showed how badly you were needed by slumping into a depression which ultimately led to relegation.

But when you returned, you helped to keep hope of staying up alive until the last day of the season.

You scored 83 goals in 136 games for the Seagulls and were instrumental in many more. Few players in the past and none of your contemporaries can match that.

Good luck with your dream move. We'll miss you.
