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

[Deadly Danson]

It’s weird because I swear I saw everyone dancing and singing along to the SHITE music

Yep, everyone loved it. Don't care if it's shite or not, it was great fun.

Nighty night, just woke wifey up and she is not happy, hehe.

Maybe she was dreaming that she was single.


Come on, I'm only kidding

Magnificent. We weren't at our very best but not surprising given the fixture congestion. We did enough and responded well when Saints pulled one back.

By letting them score another?

 

[Zeberdi]

The man of the moment:

”it’s a big emotion’

 

[Triggaaar]

Commentator saying towards the end that he thought we were a top 4 club this season and deserved/belonged in the Champions League. Pointed out the erroneous VAR decisions, injuries and match congestion as the reasons for us dropping the necessary points. Nice to hear!

Very nice to hear. We certainly should have been in the fight for top 4. But at least the awful decisions and fixture **** up hasn't cost us Europe altogether.

By letting the score another?

I was ignoring that as it was determined to be offside so technically we didn't let them score another. I was close to a heart attack, mind.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Did anyone else notice the moment in the second half were Ferguson took a sip of the Southampton physio's drink as the physio was treating one of their players close to the north stand? One of the Southampton players then gave him a load of verble and Ferguson ignored it and spat down next to him, before Ward-Prowse got involved.

It was such an odd exhange. Are our players told to sip from the opponents drinks to wind them up? Mitoma seems to do it quite a lot also.

My other important observation of the day is the <10 year old kid of one of the players (Dunk?) smashing a (maybe not regulation) penalty into the top right of the goal. Superb hit, sign him up!

Yeah but I'm not sure we technically responded well either. We responded well to their second being disallowed though.

Thank god for Pascal (and at the end he said it was his best ever day as a footballer )

 

[Triggaaar]

I am beyond happy at the moment. So many years of struggle, shit football, ground sharing, squatting at a shitty little athletics stadium. And now we find ourselves here, with European competition to come next season. So f***ing proud.

Same here. Your brother's still a twat though.

Well given Southampton’s season it won’t have been to check for performance enhancing substances

 

[Petee]

There you go, dad, and don't forget to pay St. Peter on the gate. See you (not too, I hope) soon. x

Lost my dad last June and today meant a lot. Tear in my eye when Gross scored and at the final whistle. Such a shame he didn't get to see this.

I sat down as soon as Sweet Caroline kicked off!

 

[Triggaaar]

I've never thanked you for your 'Match Day Threads', so I will do so now.
Thank you.

And I'd like to thank @TomandJerry for not starting any this time

I was saving myself for our European tour .. we are going to need the big guns out for that ...

Pascals goal

 

[trueblue]

He's been an integral part of every achievement since we got promoted to the money league, whilst being an absolute bargain, ands arguably the best value of anyone.

Genuinely, Gross's performances over a long period of time, I'm not sure there can have been a more important player in our history. Obviously there've been moments like the Reinelt goal but this guy has been so influential. Absolutely brilliant today - which really is just what we've come to expect.

It's all about Solly, Pascal and Lewis for me.
Love the others, but those three have contributed so much.

Did you have the vegan mushroom pie?

Err no ... why would I?
