We asked for your views on Solly March leaving Brighton after 14 years of service, following the expiration of his current contract.

"It has been everything I could have hoped for and more," said the 31-year-old in an open letter - and he clearly became a fan favourite at Amex Stadium.

Here are some of your replies:

Michael: Solly has without doubt been one of the most talented, dedicated and top professionals Brighton has had over the past 14 years. Having watched him develop, I always knew he would compete at the highest level. With better luck, I'm sure he would have graced an England shirt. Thank you for everything, Solly. It was a joy and pleasure to watch you throughout the years - Sussex born and bred! The very best for your future - you will be missed.

Paul: One of the few players who really got you out of your seat. Solly, it has been an absolute pleasure to have seen you play for my team. Three hundred games is one heck of a feat and you should be very proud of yourself. I will always applaud you if you return to Amex Stadium, as will thousands of other Albion fans. Wishing you the very best of luck, wherever you find yourself. Any team will be very proud and lucky to have you.

Keith: Solly, you have made a fantastic contribution to Brighton & Hove Albion. Lots of us Sussex lads would've loved to have walked in your shoes. You always gave your best. Very well done - and good luck for the future.

Dommo: Solly, I live in Eastbourne and you have a loyal following within this area. An ex-colleague of mine knows your dad. You are a local boy who has been loved and adored by the fans. You will be missed. I wish you well in your next journey.

Adrian: Solly, you will always be one of the Albion's all-time greats! Your commitment to the club has been outstanding. To watch you progress from the days down at The Dripping Pan with Lewes through to our ventures into Europe has been a joy. You truly reflect what Brighton & Hove Albion is as a club. Thank you for being part of my family's enjoyment over the years. I wish you success in whatever the next chapter brings for you.
