I think you’ll find the BBC football staff have an inordinate number of Palace fans. Hence the Ex Crystal Palace striker footnote to Glenn Murray’s comments on the BBC match reports earlier in the season. Somebody has rapped their knuckles and it’s now been corrected to the team he’s employed by :smile:

Talking of the BBC, there's a 200 question quiz on premier league teams...naturally I started the Brighton one.
Question; against which team was Di Zerbis first win as Brighton manager?
I answered chelsea
WRONG! Brighton beat Chelsea 4-1 ???
Stopped playing it after that

Actually think we get some good shouts on MOTD, particularly if Danny Murphy is punditing. The last Garths team of the week actually talked about how we needed to keep Mitoma to continue our progress, rather than various Albion players needing to move on to further their careers/fill gaps left by monied clubs complete lack of planning! Think the beeb actually likes us.

The question was who was the manager not the club so you were wrong.

I did the same but rereading it, it said against which Manager when the answer came up?

Yet another example of the BBC's bias against 'lil old Brighton.
The 90 second season summary on BBC sports page doesn't have one mention of BHAFC, after the season we have had.
Unbelievable.

Do we really give a shit ? The longer we remain under the radar the better................unless Philip Schofield comes out and says he persuaded one of our youngsters to sign

I re read the question four times before it hit me :facepalm:

Also, couldn't for the life of me figure out who lost the place after starting every game up til March :shrug:

I got that one right but was denied the point as I spelt his name correctly, putting the accent on the a in his surname.

Stupid game. I quit.
