    Albion-free Championship Playoffs thread

    I know the away end is a complete shambles. One day soon we'll hopefully be in a position to completely change that but we've not been anywhere near that this millenium until now. A separate argument is that it should have been changed much sooner in the 1990's. Fulham is a good awayday, but...

    Albion-free Championship Playoffs thread

    Nothing like sitting on the fence. :D Think a lot of the faux rivalry is between Owlstalk and North Stand Chat. Other than that I've met and had good conversations with Brighton fans, it's the same with most message boards I guess.

    Can't believe many of you don't fancy a Premiership away day at Hillsborough!?

    Congrats

    :tantrum: Yes the REAL classy team that were formed about 25 years after the fake one. Oh no I bit the hook!

    Congrats

    Don't worry about it. Our journey has taken about 17 years since we dropped out of the Prem so now we actually have a chairman, squad and manager that have propelled us to the top 6 of this level we'll always sing that song! It wasn't anything to do with Brighton, you were just the obstacle at...

    Your favourite things about Sheffield and Nottingham?

    Some very nice comments about Sheffield ladies and gents. Genuinely feel some of the silly banter and hatred is behind us now. Unless we play a grudge match in the future again. :lolol:

    Transfer madness

    The man had this appearance externally which I can understand. The high ticket prices are a big myth when you break them down and his presence in terms of name etc is all part of our sponsorship strategy to combat FFP. I'm not naive enough to know we aren't the best at generating capital. He's...

    Transfer madness

    Honestly doubt it. Our chairman is very much a business man he will have weighed up the pro's and con's of all our signings. He and Carlos have stated we are not willing to risk breaking the FFP rules. The new rules being £39M perceived loss over 3 years. Plus the value of the transfer gets...

    Ridiculous Game - Thoughts from an Owl

    Probably not then! I do think it shows a lot how talented he is that the fans have in large forgiven him for what happened. But it was a ridiculous stunt and symbolic of many modern footballers.

    Ridiculous Game - Thoughts from an Owl

    Think it's easy to say it on last nights game but that's one game and I'm assessing the player over 18 months with us. I'm not saying Knockaert doesn't or cant do that, he's clearly a better and more effective player than FF this season and probably will be now he's found that level with his...

    https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/211 That's the Brighton stats website. I love this site it really offers an interesting range of stats.

    Ridiculous Game - Thoughts from an Owl

    I've just checked actually and Forestieri also has a higher average tackle rate than Knockaert his season so it proves my point. By the way this is a really useful site if you love your stats. https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/25

    Ridiculous Game - Thoughts from an Owl

    Yeah in fairness he does. I think on stats hes our second highest tackler of the ball on average. Last night he wasn't really in the game for what ever reason but overall he's a great player at this level. Clearly what separates Knockhaert from FF is he performs on a much more consistent basis...

    Ridiculous Game - Thoughts from an Owl

    Blows hot and cold at the moment. Last week I've never seen a player put as much effort in as he did against Huddersfield. He was everywhere. Seems like one of those things that if he plays well then the team do and if not then you know what happens.

    Bannan

    It makes sense to you after seeing the game last night but over the balance of the season Bannan hasn't been the player he was last season and actually Hutchinson has been just superb winning player half of the player of the month awards so far this season.Obviously last night it was easy to...
