[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Newcastle United *** Official Match Thread ***

[El Turi]

It was good to have a reminder of how much I hate Eddie Howe. It’s amazing how his teams still get away with pretty much constant cheating for the entire game.

 

[Dave the OAP]

Got back late from Salisbury and didn’t try to go to the match…watched it at home and frankly wished I hadn’t bothered.

second half we hardly passed it to eachother

what is this new way of ditching our tippy tappy back passing to hoofing it up front to the biggest guy on the pitch , BDB?

what the hell ayari was doing i have no idea.

looks like Brentford are the form side for Europe

ah well

no-one bought my ticket either, so that cost me twice to watch it.

Don’t forget the time you’ll never get back. Also, the frustration anger and stress has taken a few minutes off your life too. It’s about time the Albion acknowledged these qualitative costs also.

Money back for a draw, plus compensation when we lose ..................... like it!

Email to PBOBE on it's way!

Why is it I'm sat in the stand my Sky Sports is about 30 seconds behind my eyes and ears and yet I know what the outcome of the VARs are before others sat in the stadium? VAR is a disgrace.

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Wankstain of a ref
Wankstain of manager in Howe- prick gets the game stopped on 72 minutes every game ffs. Why the f*** haven't ref's stopped it?
Wankstain of chance missed at the end.

It felt like quite an unpleasant, nervy game from start to finish. Disappointing to throw away 3 points after working so hard.

Great from Minteh all game. One of the best games I've seen from him.

A disaster class sub appearance from Ayari - although he's got a lot of credit in the bank.

O'Riley continues to do nothing but trot about. I've never seen a number 10 so incapable of using and scared of even having the ball.

Man of the match by the sponsors. Said to the guy next to they must have been watching a different game

 

[Bodian]

He got 900 things wrong today but that wasn’t one of them.

Wieffer grabbed the ball to delay the restart = yellow.

But when their guy kicked it away to stop a free-kick later, he didn't get a booking.

We didn't throw away three points. You get one for a draw.

I feel like there's a chance I might have been the guy next to you! Because the guy next to me said exactly the same thing!

Championship loan next season maybe? Either to get up to speed for playing in England - or to make space in the squad for somebody better.

 

[Arthritic Toe]

Good performance for me. Unlucky not to win. My highlight was the double chest back Bart. Talking of whom, that save before the pen was given was unbelievable but went largely unnoticed with the other drama.

Stonewall pen and stonewall dive on the first. Well done var (even tho it should still be binned).

There is some chance that the injury he recieved is playing a big part but frankly that excuse is wearing a bit thin. My problem is I've never seen him before he came to us. So I Don't know if he's always been like this. But I choose my words carefully when I say currently he's afraid of the ball and afraid of direct contact with others. He always lises 50 50s and his control and passing is always hesitant and half hearted. Repeatedly missplacess and underhits basic passes and is really slow and nervous on the ball. He tried an impossible pass today despite being about 8 yards out.

On the plus side I think he gets picked by Dougie Hauser because he's a good communicator seems to have a good engine and closes down well and holds a line. But that's nowhere near enough if youre a 10 .

Who the f*ck is Dougie Hauser, and what's his role in picking the team?

P.S. I think it's Wieffer who is the master of the under-hit pass!

I'm trying to get it to catch on but it's not happening.

You think?!

I reckon big Weiff is a nice crisp passer.

 

[Driver 8]

I was thinking more Princess Di.

I’ve never seen the post accident photos that were leaked but imagine you aren’t far off.

There have been conspicuous ones - which have had consequences - a goal and a sending off, for example - which were anything but crisp. Certainly not nice.

Mitoma, March, Rutter and Pedro all unavailable. If they were and had been brought on 2nd half we would’ve walked it. We did the best we could with what was available.

...and took a point (which could easily have been zero or three) from a team in the top 4.

 

[maltaseagull]

It was a fairly clear stonewall pen. Pawson didn’t actually cost us the win by giving it.

According to Warren, it shouldn't have even been a free kick so there wouldn't have been a penalty. So Pawson is still a see you next Tuesday.
