After reading all the previous posts I was about to write something similar.
I don't think anything has been officially announced, the only comment was when a journo ambushed Fab in his pre-match press conference.
He was too diplomatic and polite to say fcuk off and he tried to deflect it without saying no we wouldn't do it.
Yep, we'll see. At least it's given a chance for a few to leap on the anti-PB or Fab bus as quickly as they possibly could. Obviously it's a terrible idea if it happens but I have my doubts.

Really though? I get why might do it for the LEAGUE champions when playing them in the LEAGUE. But why we would do it for this. Makes no sense to me.

Why do we always have to be club involved in these sort of things?

In the last week, Sun cream and now cup guard of honours

f*** off
But whats the club supposed to do? Some woman in the Argus suddenly decides to suggest sun cream on a slow 'news' day and then some journo randomly asks Fab if he would partake in a guard of honour when, for all we know, there isn't even one planned.

IF it happens I would suggest the least us fans can do would be to bring a banner saying "Brighton fans salute Spurs for their heroic avoidance of relegation ❤️"

F**K OFF! Really? A guard of honour for that sh*t. Printable words fail me
This. Champions deserve it. Even if it's Liverpool.

Not 'were always committed to attacking football' Spurs . Who won a trophy by parking the bus. Everything they've derided Arsenal for. For years.

They're a poor side and I hope we shred them on Sunday.

Personally I think every team should be forced to give a guard of honour walking off the field to their opponents if they finished above them in the league

He literally said: "of course they deserve it, so we will do it".

Again, we'll see - you may well be right - but reading the words written and watching the context in which they were said are different things. If, for example, he wasn't aware that there is a guard of honour planned or that's it's unusual for anything other than a title winner, and he assumes when asked on the spot that it's normal and going to happen then the only polite thing he can say is "yes we will". Of course he may had already been told that it's happening and he's expected to comply or he wanted to do it - no one knows. If it is planned and someone at the club agreed then it's ridiculous but I'll give them the benefit of the doubt for the moment.

Yes, our excitement at getting into that league and the potential for progressing was a little tinpot. Should have been ashamed at exiting the second round, eh.
He said the guard of honour was tinpot.

Polite families spend more money. If little Tarquin get free sun lotion it makes mummies happy and they might spend £200 in the club shop.

I was disgusted at the pro Palace posts last week on social media from some Brighton fans a sickening read and now happy clapping Spurs :facepalm:
