Brighton's Wilson bid rejected

Wilson is currently in charge at Bristol City and does not want to move despite being told of Brighton's interest.

Brighton are searching for a new manager following the resignation of Peter Taylor at the end of last season.

"Brighton contacted me on Thursday night about Danny's position and I told him of their interest to see what his reaction would be," said City chairman John Laycock.

"He is not interested in going there and we as a club are not interested in letting him go.

"I have contacted Brighton to inform them of those facts so that is where the matter ends."
