[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Crystal Palace *** Official Match Thread ***

Yes, and fair play to him for ringing the changes with the youngsters' fresh legs towards the end.

Broke up the game and gave them some invaluable experience of a Palace derby too.

3 points and a whole lot more besides.

I thought I detected pockets of time wasting to frustrate them throughout .

Gamekeepers turned poachers. The luxury of being an early goal up.

Bloody great result but I have to say RDZ nearly blew it with the subs. Never bring on 3 young lads trying to see a game out. Enciso, Fergie and Sarmiento contrived to give it back to Palace and they nearly ending up with a spawny equaliser- phew

Agreed - unless there were niggles/injuries, I didn't see the need.

3 lovely points. Beat the scum. Palace getting boo’d off at full time. What a brilliant evening!! Enjoy it Albion fans

Disagree mate thought it nearly cost us big time

Agree, I thought they are too lightweight to see out a close game like that. Other than Ferguson of course.

But it didn't cost us at all. In their current form, Palace were never likely to score. And so it proved.

Still, it's always been a game of opinions. I respect yours. And nothing should sour the mood tonight!

Webdini was a good sub- experience was needed

Totally agree it’s a game of opinions. No I’m bloody over the moon. Tony Blooms had a stonking day all round!

So palace haven’t beaten us in 4 attempts now is it?

Jason Steele hasn't put a foot wrong since winning his place in the team.

Second half, I saw scum fans going berserk at Andersen and Whitworth for forever passing the ball between them, 100 yards from our goal.

Palace without a win in 12 games… #VieiraOut

Brilliant distribution. Lofted golf shots to Estupinan 40 yards away.

Apart from the suicide pass to gross at the end , honestly though he’s been brilliant.

Sometimes, yes, but I thought disrupting the flow may have been a bit risky. After all, we were hardly struggling.
