FA Cup Round 4 Brighton & Hove Albion v Newcastle United** Official Match Thread **

[Shizuoka Dolphin]

Way past my bed time, but apart from the winning, seeing all the Palace spastics on here spacking out trying to equate getting to the semi of some shitty-made-up-tinpot-cup with the FA Cup just made my night. f***ing morons!

SEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAGULLS!!!!

ESPN are f***ing GUTTED. Everything about their coverage is about how bad it is for Newcastle to lose. Someone tell them we love the underdog in this country.

Whatever, f*** 'em.

We won, we earned it, they can f*** off, we're through, they're not.

In contrast and to their eternal credit, the ever-excellent coverage on Fox Soccer here in the US was fantastic and entirely free of this kind thing. They did a really superb job and were loving the stadium, the atmosphere and the result.

I was there! They kept us in for ages after the match was over.

Nice to see the same score 20 years later.

Mut be more than 30 years ago now....prob 33-34?

 

[FlownWest]

I'm surprised people are complaining about ESPN, Barnes in particular was full of praise for the club

 

[Saltydog]

I just love this pic....

Any footage of the goal?

I'm studying up near Durham, and was so desperate to see the game on the TV that I ended up going to some pub in Teesside. There I was on my own, sitting in the corner with my J2O, with 20 to 30 burly regulars sitting close by. I thought I would get owned if I jumped up when the goal went in, but they joined in with the cheering. A great night, big up the Albion!!

True story.

I chose to stay at home and watch the match on ESPN HD with a fridge full of beer and Mrs T making home made curry. What an evening! OK, the match wasn't a classic and, if I'm honest, we were half a yard slower (the difference between a Premiership side and a Championship side?). But, the whole team stood up to be counted and we got the result we deserved. I thought John Barnes' comments were fair but Steve Harper was gutted after the match, although I LOVED his comment about the work he did to improve Big Pete's confidence in goal. I suspect I may have a hangover tomorrow. SEAGULLS!

Sunderland fans?

'Boro actually, so not far off. They're looking forward to the Tees-Wear derby tomorrow, but that's for another story.

Jeese...only just recovered enough to post.....so so proud of the lads tonight. Looked so solid at the back, and as for Will...well...i think i want his babies....and i'm a man!

I bet the Mackems are creaming this result? At least they took us to extra time.

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

No witty remarks from Murray With The Turd yet ?

I've only just noticed that Murray With The Turd was given a permanent ban last week for being a ****

Well in Albion!

 

[Vankleek Hill Seagull]

you're going to nick this..............

And you were right.

 

[Vankleek Hill Seagull]

I think Harley has made a big difference

Agree. Switching Barnes to the right and Harley on the left seemed to improve the way we played.

 

[Foolg]

Possibly because he learned through Twitter first he was out?

He knew yesterday. Mate of mine was at the training ground for a flying visit, part of the seagulls down under group so managed to meet the team. Was far from impressed, he himself thought he was fit.

 

[Aseros]

and i hopw we don't help them out with any of our players in the future....didn't like the way they were play acting....discrace....

lol.

Not taking it that well up north then....' I'm going to Newcastle Airport now with my shovel to wait for the team to get back (i don't care how long i have to wait). I'm going to hit him square on the heed. Sharp bit first! '
