Brighton & Hove Albion Vs Sheffield Wednesday ****OFFICIAL MATCH THREAD****

[Robinjakarta]

Another night that would have been 3 or 4 up by half time. SW were lucky and didn't deserve to go through.

Although now doesn't seem to be the right time to be talking about next season, if we can keep the majority of the core squad, add some further quality in place of Holla, JFC, Crofts, Zamora, Greer, ( who I expect to all be off) then we can go again.

We're hanging on to Elvis then, are we?

 

[Stat Brother]

It would have done if we hadn't been cheated at a crucial moment. Weds were crumbling IMO, that goal changed everything.

On it's more than that.

In the cold light of day, ask yourself:-

'how many saves did their keeper make in the second half?'

 

[warmleyseagull]

Holloway being unusually sensible.

He has been very gracious, clearly likes and admires CH; not afraid to give it to Derby too.

 

[Mancgull]

Forgot Elvis, and what about OGrady? Hope we can rid of both and bring in further quality.

Reminds me of the huge disappointment of the 77/78 season. We regrouped then and went up the following season.

Yeah, those of us around then well remember it. At one stage thought there'd been a goal (wasn't it Southampton?) and the old Goldstone went wild. Big reality check later on even though we won that afternoon. I doubt if Dunk will stay though...

Think we will have to battle to keep Kayal, Stephens and Dunk. Big summer ahead!

Yeh, he will.

Esp with Newcastle, Norwich and Villa splashing their 'reward for failure' cash around.

Hope the wednesday coach crashes on the way home **** em another bottle job from us **** us too

Not cool, a stupid post on both counts.

 

[Blue_Boy]

I've already explained that it was tongue-in-cheek! I'll be totally committed to the Albion whatever happens.

Apologies. Emotions are raw & I thought you were giving up on the Club on a night it's hard but vital to stay together. Next season OK? If there's any justice we'll do it. We''re owed it. Sure we made mistakes but how many during the course of the season itself? Few but sadly in the last few games when we needed stability. Next season we do it having learnt from this. Night

No worries. Tough night for us all but we'll be back for more next year!

Shameful and wrong on both remarks.

Norwich may be a decent side but see Newcastle as a rebuilding project for the brave, as for Villa, they need a whole new squad, think they'll be in for a tougher ride than they imagine, and they have shitty fans too, think they'll struggle. Derby will probably spunk the cash about again, presuming they don't score 4 at Hull.

 

[Jookbeard Eagle]

was it me or did the stadium seem to be emptying very quickly before the final whistle? perhaps as early as the 70th minute?

 

[Flex Your Head]

Radio 5 commentators and pundits much better then - repeatedly acknowledged how unlucky we were.

The beIN Sports (?) team were far more even-handed too. Repeatedly mentioned how unlucky we are not to have an Auto place with 89 points and how much of a wonderful season we've had.

So gutted, but couldn't ask for any more after that heroic performance.





(Except for slightly better finishing maybe).

Feck off you cu*t, how sad are you coming on here....

 

[SeagullofMalaysia]

Whereabouts in Malaysia are you based SOM? I must admit I've read a few of your posts and thought "when the hell did I post that?"

Near Malaysia's Northern University

 

[super-seagulls]

You have to print them off.

Something to do with the scanners not able to read the barcode from your phone. Has to be paper print off.
Check the info on the club website.

Well your advice was a load of old bollox!
Club website indeed!
