It was 22/1 on Betfair yesterday. Obviously the money men (in the know) are piling in.

They might well do it opposite the south stand in any case, so we won't see much from the north.
I shall hang around to see our players do their lap of appreciation, especially if it is Bruno's last appearance.

I don't really care who wins the league, but a draw against City could be seen as a victory for us. Being able to compete against the best the league can offer would be a good moral boost.
3-3 would be good........in both matches. Numbnuts espirito santo will have to raise his game though

All the whining Scousers online changing their profile photos to Glenn Murray and complaining about the likelihood of us folding against City are completely missing the point that they have a job to do as well.
Pipe down and beat Wolves, and then worry about us/ City.
Personally, I really hope there are some classic final game dramatics. It's one of the best things in football when word of good news arrives from another game, and the cheer starts to spread along the crowd. Always starting with one lone guy who somehow has five seconds advance notice of said good news over everyone else (this happened in the WSU when we were waiting for news from Cardiff last week), then some of those around him follow blindly, a few others are like "YES! Wait...is it confirmed? Can we trust him?", meanwhile the joy is already streaming along the stand like an audio Mexican wave, and then finally it's official, and everybody goes nuts.

My mate lives in Hastings now, big Albion fan but a Brighton lad. His neighbour, originally a Crawley lad is one of these insufferable Liverpool armchair fans. He blagged an away ticket off us on the pretext that he was an Albion fan. This was the 4-0 up there last season.
He was full of "soak it all up lads" as we arrived at Anfield. How I didn't chin the twatt I'll never know. And after he had the nerve to hold 4 fingers up at us, his hosts. That's when I had a word in his ear. I rip him to shreds now every time I see him which thankfully isn't too often. "Oh no I support Man City now, taken a leaf out of your book".
I'll want Albion to win on Sunday, of course, no doubt. And hope the Bin Dippers mess up. If City win the League, c'est la vie. And I will search out every last poxy armchair pool fan at work.

I wonder if that big EARED buffoon [MENTION=70]Easy 10[/MENTION] will start spreading FAKE scores again 
Absolutely this
Was going to post something VERY similar. I absolutely cannot wait for Sunday and a few ales with the eyes of the world on us. If a certain FB group goes offline for the summer as a result then all the better
Liverpool have spent massively as well, it’s not some sort of fairytale
A few, simple, perfect words.

I think it's great that we are playing such a key part in the final day excitement. Most certainly Chris will have us well up for the task and I see no reason, on last night's first half display, why we shouldn't push Man City to the extremes of frustration. Bissouma to score the winner in the 88th minute?

Apparently not. The collection of lifelong fans, 95% of whom had never been to Anfield but dreamed of doing so (because of course Liverpool is such a hard place to get to), with barely a Scouse accent among them of course.
They meet at another bar now: the King & Queen thing is long gone. You can apply for tickets to their end of season party after the Wolves game if you like

I think it maybe worth getting tickets for the potential tears.
I want Brighton to win all but 2 games a season, forgive for the hope for an extra defeat this season.

I’m not fence on this as I grew up in Liverpool so have a real soft spot for them.
This was in the 1970a and 80s when Liverpool was on its knees with 40% youth unemployment, militant Labour in control, the worst Heroin epidemic in UK history raging and the docks and shipyards closing.
It’s no surprise to me that folk in Sussex think of them as “scallies” thieving, dealing and otherwise up to no good but that isn’t how they were seen a generation before.
Liverpool USED to be associated with music, the arts, acting, and enterprise. The people there are warm and generous and the love of their team is quite something to behold. It’s a shame that poverty, drugs and deprivation drove the scumbag scousers south in search of work...bringing with them their drug habits and “rob anything not nailed down” mentality but I refuse to paint that proud city as full of scum because I know different.
I can understand Edna’s antipathy. I imagine she has dealt with lots of characters from Liverpool in, shall we say, a professional capacity. I DO hope though that she doesnt take a negative approach whenever she hears a Scouse accent...I’m sure she doesn’t but, hey, just saying.

Good post, I don't think it's the cassette nicking scallies we dislike but the Sussex folk that decide to support a team some 200+ miles away.
