**********Thee Unofficial Brighton & Hove Albion v Aston Villa Match day Thread**********

[sjamesb3466]

Controversial, but I'd be tempted to take off AK, bring on Norwood and have Sidwell sit in front of the back four

I see why you would say that as AK has been very anonymous by his standard but he is so capable of a touch of magic from nowhere. Plus it would invite pressure on us and I don't think we deal with that well especially against big physical sides

 

[oldboyroy]

think we've been pretty poor tonight

 

[Bodian]

just some thrashing around in our area, nothing untoward was occasioned eventually

Lovely turn of phrase. I just said 'phew'...

Yeah it seems Hughton agrees with you.

OK....................

 

[Badger]

Over 30,000

 

[sjamesb3466]

Unfortunately I can only see one team scoring at the moment and it's not us.

Come on Albion. Dig deep and break to score the winner in front of the North stand

 

[Simster]

There's only one team looking like winning this.

 

[Dick Head]

Who's shitting their pants?

 

[Badger]

This is pants

 

[Paul Reids Sock]

I'm. It enjoying the last 10 minutes

 

[Seagull over Canaryland]

We're not quite at the races tonight............. while Villa under Bruce are looking a lot more competitive.

Hope we find some way of nicking this but maybe a draw would be ok. Norwood on to tighten things up.

 

[Change at Barnham]

The fact that they can bring on Ayew and Grealish shows what a strong squad Villa have.
We're suddenly defending more than we're attacking. They've now had 5 corners in a matter of minutes, we need to get some possession.
Norwood on for AK.

 

[Farehamseagull]

This is relentless! Will do well to get a point from this now.

 

[sjamesb3466]

Yeah it seems Hughton agrees with you.

Nope he agrees with you!

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Frickin hell!

 

[Dick Head]

Are you Chris Hughton?

 

[Change at Barnham]

What a great save from Stockdale.

 

[brakespear]

great save Stockdale.

 

[Simster]

Nope he agrees with you!

So he does.
