[Albion] Arsenal vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Silverhatch]

I reckon Welbz could be a starter tonight replacing Tross and may well score his first of the season. (Hopefully )

Welbz will be on the Qatar choo choo by tonight. Wrapped in cotton wool as per waistcoat's instructions.

My first game since Covid. Being immune-compromised due to chemo I haven’t felt comfortable doing so before. I’ll probably wear a mask which I hate doing but am even more sick of missing live games. Really looking forward to it.

6,500....any particular pub or area most will be heading to?

if you get off at finsbury park then it’s the twelve pins not sure from highbury station

 

[Super Sub]

Looking forward to this one.... I do of course hope we go through but equally i'd like to see some the fringe players getting a game.

 

[Surport Local Team]

Always been twelve pins in the past?

Just got the 'Pre-match Brief' email from the club. Not sure they are right about when the next round is...!

You seem to be under the misapprehension that anything in football makes sense anymore.

Annoyingly I can't attend the game now, and probably too late to move the 2 spares I have for the game. Me being based in Sandhurst probably doesn't help many on here either....

Perhaps it was scheduled then in recognition that Premier League teams will no doubt be putting reserves out.

You say that, but truth is plenty of Premier League club's reserves will also be World Cup bound - Sarmiento and Lamptey in our case, for example.

You would be criminally insane if you seriously thought they'd give you a day pass . . . . .from Broadmoor.

If only I’d be visiting my daughter in Owlsmore today

There will be times under RDZ when we get a bit of a pasting. I think with the changes tonight, it could be one of those nights.

It’d be really great if there isn’t a meltdown/scapegoating on here during and afterwards though.

3-0 Arsenal.

my email from the club says I have to collect tickets from the venue. Any idea where the away tickets will be issued from?

Agreed. Wouldn’t need to be a big deal in the grander scheme of things.

We should be beating teams like Arsenal

There will be times when we stun top teams and beat them convincingly too. Already done it once, maybe another tonight

0-3 Albion

I have to collect mine as I left it on a mantlepiece in Darlington.
I was told there'll be a collection point at the South East stand (presumably the away end).

No way! Literally around the corner from me. You could've checked out the 916 Spider whilst collecting he tickets too. What a shame.

Look I hope so too! I’m just saying, we are playing the second best team in the country away from home, and are very likely to field a much changed team.

I’d like a committed performance, no injuries or suspensions, and to do our best. If we lose comfortably, I can’t say I’ll be too bothered. If we win, fantastic!

Much, much more interested in the weekend against a resurgent Villa.

It's correct. See my post here https://www.northstandchat.com/threads/league-cup-4th-round-is-dec-20-21.397633/#post-10441585
Right mess with my holiday as I was convinced there would never be a game between the WC Final (Sunday 18th Dec) and Boxing Day.

Up in the frozen wastelands of the north (Yorkshire) and will be cheering on the lads from whatever curry house we end up in. #BadFan
