[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Crystal Palace *** Official Match Thread ***

[Grizz]

These are games where all form goes out the window. It wasn't pretty, didn't expect it to be, all that matters is the result and they got it. Fair play to Palace, they played their part well. The Ref, well f***ing shocking doesn't even come close to describing his performance.

 

[SeagullsoverLondon]

Oh yes!!!

 

[birthofanorange]

Aside from the first 15 mins or so, it was never in doubt.

 

[Eric the meek]

I'm slightly disappointed Veltman didn't wind up Zaha more, so that it really kicked off.

 

[Marxo]

My bum squeaked but now I'm happy! Hoorah semper fi!!

 

[andys320]

Finally. Luck goes our way, thank goodness for that.

Ref was appalling, bottled big decisions.

Veltman MOM for me, bossed Zaha, and sweated blood.

 

[rool]

Is it ok to say mind the gap now?

 

[Stephen Seagull]

A completely different second half had the ref done his job properly in the first.

still a great win and about time we took the 3 points from the game

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Jeez,how much longer

It's all right. You can come out now.

 

[Weststander]

If it wasn’t bad enough waking up in f***ing Croydon every day, they watch it shit team.

 

[Mustafa II]

We've done it! Beaten the ****s.

f*** those wankers.

We deserved to win.

Apart from the first 15 minutes before the goal, we dominated. f*** them.

Shame not to have scored more, against those wankers, but delighted with the 3 points regardless.

They battled well, for some of it, the ****s... but it's 1-0 to the good guys.

Huge 3 points, to be fair.

Wasn't our best performance... but we deserved it.

Palace are shite.

That's all I have to say really.

Veltman has been given MOTM

Veltman was simply wonderful. Pocketed Mr Tumble all game and should've got him booked but the ref bottled that one too.

 

[nwgull]

Is it ok to say mind the gap now?

Absolutely - 15 points with 2 games in hand! I'd go so far as to say that we could lose our next 13 games and they'd not make that up.

I'm slightly disappointed Veltman didn't wind up Zaha more, so that it really kicked off.

)) Nah, it was really important that we stayed in control of ourselves and the game.

 

[Eric the meek]

A word about the ref. ****.

 

[Pevenseagull]

I think Japan have found the BBC player ratings thing.

 

[Curious Orange]

Well, they certainly had more about them than West Ham.

Thank f*** for that, wasn't a comfortable watch but we were long, long overdue a win against them. March and Veltman brilliant, and Steele had a great game up until the error in added time, thankfully it wasn't punished.
