[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Aston Villa *** Official Match Thread ***

I haven't felt this unexited about a game in a long time

I almost agree. For me it's since the last game.

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

Wee Billy will bang one in today, nailed on.

 

[Springal]

4-0 Villa

 

[Greg Bobkin]

I'm not sure if this game will be season defining, or if the season has already been defined and this game will just confirm it.

This next game COULD be season-defining.

I had that about City. First game I've wanted to leave early (Like, half-time early). Today I'm a bit more chipper - maybe because I know it's my last game of the season?

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

3 nil to villa.

And what's your prediction for the second half?

 

[Krafty]

We can lose by 10 but if we finally score a goal, I'll be happy

 

[dstanman]

Have a feeling we may get something out of todays game, not sure what it will be, but hopefully 3 points.

You lucky, lucky…..

I’ve still got Newcastle to get through.

 

[TomandJerry]

Going against the grain.

2-1 to us.

 

[pasty]

Haven’t felt less like going to a game in years. Only going because a mate asked if I fancied going out for a few beers after

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

So... to sum up: the general feeling on here seems to be that this afternoon will be a good drinking session ruined by an outbreak of football

Yup

 

[spence]

Home win

 

[Oh_aye]

I'm going but don't hold out much hope of a win or a performance.

Villa know a win can clinch CL and they can go into their 2nd Euro leg and remaining games with the pressure off if they win.

If our flip flop clad half-arsed helmets suddenly put a show on today I'd be amazed.

Dunk can't handle Watkins and that Scottish midfielder who looks like he needs another half hour in the oven before he's done, seems to turn into Pirlo when they play us.

They'll score in the 8th minute and we'll then get 82 minutes of watching Martinez lie on the floor clutching different bits of his body before clutching and thrusting his groin at the North Stand as he leaves the field.

 

[Official Old Man]

Facts.
Palace are 4 points and 7 goals worse than us with three games to play. Man Utd H, Wolves A & Villa H.
If we can pick up a point today they have to win at least 2 more games subject to us not losing by 7 in our last games!

This next game COULD be season-defining.

The season has already been defined, boxed up and buried. Today is a stress-free day in the sun

 

[GT49er]

Have a feeling we may get something out of todays game, not sure what it will be, but hopefully 3 points.

One serious cruciate injury and one (ridiculously unfair) red card, perhaps?

Sounds like most of those matchdays 2nd half of Hughton's last season !!

 

[Acker79]

Fully expecting a performance of neat passing in our own half that falls apart when we get near their box, and a defence limper than lettuce resulting in a deserved drubbing, and expecting a referee/var decision that results in a thread about the ref where people repeatedly note 'it wouldn't change the result but...' and still someone will moan that the thread always appears when we lose and it doesn't excuse our loss.
