    This. This. And this again. Silly as it sounds I know but United really are a bit of a bogey side for us!

    Not sure we ever will? We’ve grown to a much noticed size and inevitably richer clubs are hovering for just about everyone from CEO downwards as we’re already seeing. With that comes disruption and more snakes than ladders for a club like us. Can we hold onto our team (on and off pitch) whilst...

    Well played lads. But the OT bingo card strikes once again. We’ll never win there

    We hold the record of hitting the woodwork most times in a match. It became ridiculous last season across our entire squad. In some ways our ability to not score has become our identity. “The Brighton Way!”

    Now, what the odds of that pre match?! Classic Albion!! :lolol:

    Actually it happens a lot in fairness. Almost predictable. Hence the understandable frustration. Never mind. I stopped saying “one day” a long time ago because us and OT just ain’t meant to be. As tonight demonstrates ably!

    This. Just classic Albion. It’s why we love our club. So near and yet so far.

    Not play for BHA?! He’s in a very long line of ‘unlucky” Albion players these past few seasons.

    Hate VAR. if it takes two men and dozens of cameras, plus five mins of analysis how on earth is that clear and obvious etc? Another reason why modern football SUCKS.

    I’d forgotten about Bobbys Blopper per game. Thank god we got away with that!

    No you’re not getting the classic bit. We play em off the park, but conspire ourselves to duck things up. It’ll be another “Brighton dominated but could not…blah blah bloody blah” match report. Classic. Albion. Never won at OT.

    Yep, not as if Dunk not received more than a few red cards in his career.

    Come on WD, you’ve seen this plenty of times before.

    No, but those are exceptions not the CLASSIC rule! Reminds me of ‘93, we played so well that day and came away with nothing. Schmicel made a double wonder save that day too to deny us.

    But utterly predictable after the first half. The number of times, the number of times…it’ll never change. Always the bridesmaids. Plucky mind.

    Warren fairly scathing of him. Pressed the self destruct button and off goes Dunk once again too. This is CLASSIC Albion against a big club!

    Classic Albion away at a big club who aren’t playing well. We could maybe should be ahead but you just know they’ll still score with one chance whilst none of our several chances go in. If ever we’re to notch up a win at OT we have to make nights like tonight count.

    Not hopeful simply because we never quite manage to meet Utd on a bad day at OT even when we play exceptionally well. One of those places Brighton just never win unlike the Leicesters, West Brom’s, QPRs of this world.
