The players deserve their time in the sun and our applause, and I'm happy to give it, but I cannot stand the f***ing racket and volume of utterly SHITE music. If I wanted that I'd go to the Brighton centre!
Precisely! - but thanks for the heads-up about the Brighton Centre; I'll know to steer well clear!

Blimey I eventually rolled out of the East Stand straight into Lil Japan, gawd bless'em.

With the amount of cash they'd spent in the shop, I think we can pooh-pooh every transfer rumour unless the player is from SE Asia.

'One of the best days in my career'​

FT: Brighton 3-1 Southampton

Speaking to BBC Sport, Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi said

"It's incredible, one of the best days in my career. I can change my ideas and philosophy depending on the result but I think we deserve to qualify in Europe. We need one more point to qualify for the Europa League and we have to do it, but I have a lot of emotion. I am really proud to be coach of these players and the club. We won together, and I am really proud."

"I can’t explain my emotion, my players are fantastic players, but also fantastic people. They believed from the first moment that they deserved to qualify, we had a tough period, we lost a lot of players to in jury but when you have something inside you push to the end to your target."

"I did not have time to think about a target, I only focused on my improvement and my work. After the game with Palace away, I understood this could be the right season and the right year to achieve one incredible, historic target. We did not win and the players were sad, but that was when I understood their level because only with the level of these players can you achieve this historic target."

I let my 12 year old grandson have my ticket today, he is the future for our wonderful club and I wanted him to experience this fabulous achievement in the flesh.
When I was 13 ,the Albion won the 4th Division title and those memories are amongst my most cherished, I hope the memory of today stays with my grandson for the same amount of time.

GOAL: BRIGHTON 2-0 Southampton (Ferguson, 40')

Ferguson scores again, Mitoma with the assist, ALBION have a 2 goal cushion!!!
Good refereeing there - it's the sort of thing refs would often give against us (Mitoma) and nothing would be said about it.

Thank you, Pascal Gross you f***ing legend. Love you all, we've achieved what we thought was out of reach. See you in Europe.
He's been an integral part of every achievement since we got promoted to the money league, whilst being an absolute bargain, ands arguably the best value of anyone.

Wonderful stuff. Seemed fitting for Gross to get the goal that sealed it. Well done everyone.
