Brighton & Hove Albion vs Leicester City *** Official Match Thread ***

[Seaber]

Glad Gus hasn't changed the back four yet, but I am keen to see Mattock play.

for deep heat read horse embrocation...................fecking need it in this weather

I think Fran Sandaza used up the last remnants of the horse embrocation at Withdean.

That is a very very strong bench! Have we ever had so many high quality players ready to come on if needed?

 

[glasfryn]

Meggy or Lu-Lu as today's lucky mascot ?

both under the covers ...................no cut that Lu-Lu is clamped to the front room radiator and is actually awake whereas Meggy is under the duvet and not coming out even for the Albion.

 

[TSB]

Noone or kaz?

Lets hope Vicente has smothered his legs with Deep Heat otherwise the cold will cramp his muscles , I wonder if they've given him a blanket today while he is on the bench ?

Many years ago, one Albion Manager insisted that the subs sit on the bench inside sleeping bags.

 

[Notters]

Noone or kaz?

Neither!

Looks like a no risks strategy from Gus................... Navs in midfield to make sure we don't give too much away against the league's biggest underachievers; no risks with injury comebacks for KLL, Nooney or Gonzalo Jara; no risks up front by going gung ho and changing our set-up with Vokes. Safety first but the chance to see Vicente play makes it worth the price of a ticket for those lucky enough.

Nerves starting to jangle ahead of kick-off. Big, big game if we are to have play-off aspirations

no cut that Lu-Lu is clamped to the front room radiator

a la Terry Waite when he was on holiday in Beirut

Dutch Albion fan just mentioned "Palace , the scum" on radio

 

[portlander]

Snow cascading down outside here in the north-east of the US, glad I'm in here listening to this. Up the Albion.

Some Albion fans are stuck at Brighton station because of a trespasser on the line. HB&B tweeted there are thousands of supporters waiting for the power to be switched back on.

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

Fans are also stuck at Lewes.

 

[sir albion]

Must admit im disappointed with that line-up as it looks far to defensive to me,really was hoping for noone or lua lua playing and also was hoping mattock and reyes were going to start as the two so called wing backs are far to slow.

CMS again looks like he's getting scraps

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

Tweet that fans were fighting on the track which led to power being turned off
