[Albion] Newport County vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[portslade seagull]

I can’t believe he is risking Maupay in this match. We have three matches in a week for goodness sake and we have two forwards out injured as it is. If Maupay gets crocked we are in big trouble.

I also would have rested Webster, March Dunk and Bissouma.

Baffling.

Bissouma is banned from the next match so is rested anyway

Dissappointed no Propper but then looking at the pitch maybe for the best

I agree but then do we really want a Leeds Utd style capitulation against a lowly club followed by the subsequent NSC meltdown with the loss that could recruit yet more numbers to the Potter Out Campaign?

God I can’t stand Potter. Why the **** has he picked such a strong team. Want to win but who gives a shit about the FA Cup (sadly). He picks his reserves for Arsenal now this. WEVE GOT 2 PL games in 2 days you massive drip.

Propper is needed to cover Biss suspension so no point playing him today from that point of view - though he did look quality in second half last week

 

[Swansman]

I take it as a sign that he is definitely starting against City

 

[Bones]

Agree completely. Apart from a bit of extra cash, not much to gain from a cup run. I wouldn't be risking at least half of that team.

Confidence, momentum IF we win!!!

Only playing 3 centre backs.

That's a recipe for disaster.

4-1.

I’m going to be behind the sofa when Newport get a set-piece. We’re normally brilliant at defending these with 5 centre backs on the field!

 

[Seasider78]

That team says we will be resting a few on Wednesday ahead of two winnable PL games

 

[doogie004]

Crazy to play such a strong team- a couple of injuries could affect us staying up massively

Next game Man City away do t think it matters who we put out for that game goal difference won’t save us this year so will rest first team for that game ready for Leeds

Piss poor attitude from some of our supporters

 

[PoG]

Clearly not fussed for the City game.

 

[London Irish]

The South African fans on Twitter are something else, looks like we’ve got our own version of the BTS fan army lol

 

[The Fits]

Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

 

[Farehamseagull]

So after the Villa cup game last season loads of you moaned about Potter picking a team of kids. Today he picks a strong team and loads of you still moan?! I have absolutely no doubt you’d also be moaning if he put out 11 stiffs or kids today. He literally can’t win, it’s pathetic.

Easy way to get likes on Twitter is just to mention them!

Thought Burn & Veltman would be nailed on?

Certainly thought BigDanBurn would have been given a runout to restore his confidence after his mare last time

 

[London Irish]

Absolutely no fan of Potter at the moment but we need a good display today for the sake of morale at the club, a stronger selection like this one is justified

You won't be saying that if Brighton line up in a semi-final or final later in the year.

Watch him slaughter Raheem Sterling in a few days
