[Albion] When was the last time a team quite so obviously gave up...

I thought we gave up on that one - weren't we 5-0 up at half time?
Beat me to it. Although some of their supporters gave up and left.

When Mitoma scored the sight of them trudging out and the look of them that they expected it.......

Groß and Caicedo were literally stood in the centre circle playing 5 yard first time passes to each other at 3-0. I think they did about six in a row - the nearest West Ham player was at the park and ride I think.

I’d absolutely love a GIF of this.
Yep…the game absolutely stopped. It was like the whistle had gone and they were knocking it about waiting for the ref to restart play. Bizarre.

West Ham were just happy for a breather!

Yup. I’d add Blackpool when we had Poyet in charge
I've never felt so relaxed at a Brighton game as that day. We were in complete control from start to finish. Even when Hammond scored that own goal, our fans were laughing/almost cheering. Beautiful weather as well if I remember correctly

Us at home to Stoke(?) under McGhee at Withdean. Lost about 0-5 I think and the players looked hungover.
1-5. Grimly amusing. Think it was the last game of the season. When Rooney (no, not that one) scored a hat-trick. H Block were chanting ROO-NEY! ROO-NEY! Doug Loft came on after an hour, scored with the softest daisy-cutter you'll ever see and promptly got awarded MoM :lol: In McGhee's post-match interview he said the game didn't matter anyway. As you'd imagine, that went down well...
