[Albion] Watford vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***
- Thread starter Dick Head
- Start date
As a paying away fan I am just happy with the result. Not gloating but certainly sticking it to the negative fans we’ve had moaning since Hughton was sacked. Is that ok?

strong and stable with me, or...
I’m still in shock.
Go 1 up away from home, bring on a centre forward...who promptly scores.
2 up away from home, bring on a defensive player Shirley!? No, another forward...who promptly scores.

second best

There are some very shame-faced people on NSC tonight.
best result since we returned to the premier. Of course it's only one game but no one can have expected better.
Great times and can't wait for the player ratings!

Yes, yes
No, when we brought on MaupayWhen we bought on one of our players from last season you mean?
Regardless, as I'm sure you know, what I disagree with you about is the idea that we should play our established players out of respect, rather than because Potter thinks they're the right players to get us the best result. Perhaps the result shows it was indeed the latter, rather than just some respect being handed out.

Well that went well. Happy days.
Chris Hughton is the best manager the Albion have ever had but Graham Potter could have the skill to take us to the next level and outdo even CH.
Hey....let's not be too presumptuous - we have won one match!
I am impressed that GP certainly seems grounded and made sensible post match comments!

I didn’t say respect though.
Just said it made sense through experience and team spirit. Think you replied to the wrong person.

We wouldnt be where we are today without Chris but initial indications were it was the right time for a change. Why can't we be happy with both managers?

Most unexpected result of the day (so far). BUT you won't hear anyone on MOTD say that
I'm not against the gist of your post, but we brought them both on when we were 1 up.I’m still in shock.

I'm very positive about the season (mojo of 9 before today), but thought we'd lose simply due to their home advantage and our new players signed so late.
Elated that my cautious score prediction of a 2-0 loss was wrong, I don't feel shamed at all. I love it when the Albion prove me wrong, I'm a fan.

Reckoned it was a Poor premier league game and continued to talk sneerily about it.
He did enjoy the goals from the subs though.

Never believed the doomsayers. I know it’s only the first game but had an inkling that we had the players and a change of style would pay dividends. Long may it continue. It’s now 2.25am in Tassie so I'm off to bed.
