Ooh, Manchester United can only equal our points tally..... tantalisingly close to Man United going red on the 'teams that can't catch us thread' for the first time in all our 124 years. Incidentally my great-grandad used to start this thread on NSC between the wars ....... he would have made...
He's going great. Fab clearly likes him because he has amazing stamina, his energy in the last 20 minutes is astounding. Still young and developing - he could become amazing. Mac Allister at the same age was just making his Brighton debut, 9 appearances in his first season at the same age.
I...
I think we should refer to this season more as a 'reset' than a 'transitional season'
We had the Hughton era of promotion and survival; then we reset with Potter, new style of play and new style of recruitment. We built a great squad, almost derailed by Potter leaving but RDZ picked up the...
You don't sit 9th in the premier league with the youngest squad in the league and a crippling injury crisis if your play is poor, unstructured, complete chaos, no defensive structure, not reacting........
You just don't. So either we're not 9th or our play is not how you see it....
Oh great :( So we have to put up with a hundred unimaginative people droning on that they 'can't see what Hurzeler is trying to do' whilst losing one of the few insightful guys who actually understands football tactics and strategy. The dumbing down of NSC continues apace....
No, not really. I'm delighted we won, but get annoyed at people who decide on a whim to change their minds from Fab out to Fab stays based on a couple of late goals. It just totally undermines your previous hundred posts calling for his head and means we just totally wasted our time debating...
A., Not the same thing as your saying , and B, I don't have an issue with how he set us up in any of those games. We gave Villa one of their harder gaes in recent weeks. Competent finishers would have had us 5-0 after half an hour against Leicester
A, not true, Villa was a great end to end game, Leicester all over them, Palace was a good game too, just the rivalry affects all analysis.
B, you can't make decisions on keeping / sacking a manager based on such short timespans. One single game with 'spirit and intent' shouldn't change...
I think when you are under that much pressure to produce results you are going to play your best players. There doesn't feel the leeway for him to be that experimental (and it wouldn't necessarily be a great environment to throw kids into, see Gruda). Its pretty clear that many fans simply want...
Not to doubt the veracity of this photo, but the person bottom right has a remarkably small and off-centred head, as well as a cheeky knowing glance to the camera. Quite unsettling...
I think its partly just a case of looking on the bright side of everything. If we don't qualify for Europe, we'll be fresher and fitter and maybe will do REALLY well in the league, so we could be in Europa or CL the year after. I thought the same when we were losing to Newcastle in the Cup -...
Well, I assume he has a way he wants to play, they work on it in training and then try and put it into practice. And perhaps he sees it largely working for 70% of the time before the opposition hoofs one over Hinshelwood or Wieffer filling in at full back, or Bart gifts them a goal, or Pedro...
But if you buy your seats as guest tickets you'll get the money back less a one pound admin fee, plus the difference between a matchday ticket and your discounted ST. That's a very cheap price for a Brighton ticket!
Fine, but just buy the same ticket off the exchange. The STH will get his money back less a quid for the admin, that's a lot cheaper than forking out the £38 for membership
