Football league show

it does make me wonder if this all harps back to the Gus sacking, not that it was done on air but maybe they got a rucking from the Albion for even broadcasting it.
it really does look like there is someone with a rather large axe to grind, even when we have done well, like the Leicester city result it was hardly mentioned compared with some of the matches shown on there.
mind you even before the Gus sacking we hardly got any sort of mention on teletex and were left off completely at times, does make me think that Skipper is right and we have just fallen through the cracks in the floor.

I really do not believe the BBC
teletex comment is "Brighton will stay 6th until Reading play Doncaster tomorrow" do they already know the result then?
and Breakfast this morning all about MU which is to be expected then went on to Partick Thistle ......and not one effing word about the Albion

In all fairness they have given us very good coverage when we needed it, now we are not a desperate club anymore we are well not cool in their eyes.

On good Friday, the BBC live text commentary gave a full time whistle summary to all other games except Brighton which just read, 16:58 Full Time Huddersfield 1-1 Brighton.

I totally agree with your comments, its always the same, Steve "haven't a clue" Claridge burbling on about naff all.
Brighton hardly ever gets a mention, who knows why. Jealousy I expect punk:

I am damn sure they had a bet that all three of them would not mention Brighton, every week its the same.
Have the BBC got something against the Albion
all set up for the Muff manager to take the plaudits then they get beaten by Sheffield Wednesday
WTF are they going to do when and if we get to the premiership, cancel MOTD no doubt

Some clubs are fashionably unfashionable, and they are clubs with a small following but success on the pitch like Wigan. Brighton are just unfashionable because iof the lack of success on the pitch. As Brighton have never achieved much on the pitch and never been in the top flight since Rupert Murdoch's so called "Premier League" (Division 1 in my money) they don't understand how a club can have a lower league team but a top 9 in the country following. The Albion is so under the radar of many people as a result. Its also why more successful clubs fans like Shef Weds and Ipswich dont like the fact they get smaller gates than us. They dont get how we can have such a big support despite a complete lack of success on the pitch. In fact Shef Weds fans didnt even realise that Brighton got bigger gates at the Goldstone "back in the day" when we played each other than for the corresponding fixture at their place. These things just go unnoticed and the club will continue to be ignored by the press until the players start to match the size of their support.

What's the chances of getting more than our thirty seconds of airtime tonight? :albion2:

Probably twenty minutes of Reading highlights with about ten clips of what was happening in our game mixed into the edit.
With Mark Bright telling anyone that will listen Reading have been robbed/hard done by.

seagullsovergrimsby · May 3, 2014

2 and a half minutes on the FLS tonight

JOLovegrove · May 3, 2014

So hope Mark Bright is on tonight!

He'll just spend the entire time talking about how bad we were in last years SF.

Could be worse, it could be Jason Roberts.

he doesn't do this show..normally late kick off..be nice to c claridge though ..i don't mind him...but he seemed to rule us out last week which i think was a tad unwise knowing how the championship has been all season

I think we may actually get a bit of decent airtime tonight. As crap as the football league show can be it's no where near as awful as the steaming turds of football coverage that I.T.V serve up. And I like Manish Bhasin, knowledgeable and seems like a nice bloke. Claridge can be a bit of a tit and his views change with the wind but he's passionate and I always found him quite fair with his views about us

Seagull on the wing · May 3, 2014

I wonder if the mighty Leeds will get a mention ?

Barrel of Fun · May 3, 2014

We don't normally create headlines and are not generally involved in high scoring games, plus we haven't been a heavy weight for much of the season, so I don't see why the BBC should be expected to give us lots of air time.

He said he had absolutely no idea who would take the final two spots. He didn't rule us out at all.

Looks even better second time around. :thumbsup:

TSB · May 4, 2014

Not bad although I think the commentator described Leo as a 'bit-part' player this season?

Paul Reids Sock · May 4, 2014

Haha they don't like us 'well done Brighton, but, onto Reading....'
