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

[portlock seagull]

Well, were was the bizarre incident to rob is of all three points? Seems like ages since we've had such an uncontentious match.

To be fair we're getting to that stage of the season where any teams with over 30 points have half an eye on the beach - Southampton looked like one of those teams... and they may be packing their bags too early if they aren't careful.

Knowing the Albion, it could still happen at any point later this afternoon in some footballing first

Bloody well done lads- I take some credit for the win as I turned off the TV after The scummers equalised. Also saved me a triple bypass next week

Real fan?

 

[Normandy seagull]

Going to claim credit for that win. I couldn’t bear watch 2nd half or even listen to. Made lunch instead and only tuned back in for last 2mins of injury time. Fair to say I was not expecting that result. Ain’t it the hope that kills yer

I literally turned back back on at the end and they were showing the possible penalty at the end- would have been just typical

Long suffering fan actually

 

[R. Slicker]

I suppose that means I'm going to have to keep the 'lucky' Avatar.
To be honest, it's starting to give me the creeps.

With some extra coaching he could be our March cover.

Isn't that Karbownik? Quite surprised he wasn't in the squad today, but Potter isn't one for rushing players into the team before he thinks they're ready, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Thank #### for that! I feel like I've ran a marathon after watching the games on TV. 90+ minutes of muscle tension & holding my breath when we're ahead is not good for the body. Or the mind!

 

[swindonseagull]

I spent the last 8 minutes in the kitchen, just listening as I couldn’t bear to watch. My other half was watching, so I called out to him asking how the clock was running down. I felt sick, convinced they would nick a goal at the death.

Must be an Amex early leaver?

 

[Medwayseagull]

Me too, it did look a penalty both times.

Specsavers are still open.

Called that when the line up was announced

So you honestly feel the first appeal was a foot outside the box?

Just get behind the team for 90 mins......why would you turn your back on your own team?

JUst a question?

IM 59 ( and a bit ) and I wont miss a minute of us on TV or at the Amex.........I even gave up OT today to watch the game.

 

[blue-shifted]

My heart rate is still at a highly unhealthy level

 

[brighton_tom]

The thing that has annoyed me so much recently is our lack of game management when we hand opposition the ball, give them chances at goal, and yards on the pitch unnecessarily.. But that second half was exactly how it should be done. Well done the lads, hopefully they learn and take it forward.

good man,

some people just prefer moaning on the internet, quite sad really

You are the only one who thinks it wasn't including the officials and TV commentators. However, if you are a person who always believes they are right regardless, you carry on.

Football at 12 on a Sunday is dangerous. I'm 3 cans deep and contemplating a trek to the shops before the dreaded Sunday early closing.

You maybe right, I'm defiantly no lemming or sheep follower, officials and TV commentators are always correct are they

It will be given on MOTD tonight, that sort of thing happens to Brighton this season.
The win was all a bad dream, still a point gained I suppose.
