    Scottish cup final

    Tasty shot. The defence opened up for him but every credit for him drilling it home. An agile keeper might've got to it so Hibs somewhat bulky chap had no chance This should be interesting. The Hib's sub who's just come on - Liam Henderson - is supposed to be a target for a few Clubs down here...

    Scottish cup final

    So far it's been...er, hectic. Fast, end to end & open with a number of good chances but it reminds me of an Under 14's game where it's mainly kick and run & little about tactical thought Plenty of entertainment but being honest most of these players are League 1 or (very) lower Championship...

    What song brings tears to your eyes?

    Hallelujah - As a massive admirer of Leonard Cohen the man, the poet & the musician there is only one version & that's the one by Leonard himself. So many verses & interpretations it just has me welling up. Seeing him perform it in concert numbed me with joy & the tears flowed. As near to...

    Calde's Open Letter on the Club Website

    What a wonderfully emotional humble farewell. Light hearted in parts, genuine tear evoking in others THAT is how real men & dedicated Club men say goodbye. No foot stamping or complaining. Just acceptance & a passionate look back on the marvellous moments we were blessed to share With salty...

    Patrick Webber

    Was his surname not spelt Stevens? That was a nice piece of scouting when Ipswich let him go but he wasn't a local lad on our doorstep so I'd not class him as one we missed out on first time round It used to confuse me when our Gary & the Gary Stevens at Everton both went to the 1986 World Cup...

    [Albion] New deals for three; five released

    Releasing players is always one of the most difficult decisions a manager has to make. He does it risking being unpopular but does it because he believes they no longer fit in his plans. They become the past of a Club & no longer its future CH will have taken time & gone over his decisions many...

    [Offers] So.... how much for Knockaert?

    How very endearing of you to share a snippet of your endeavours. You want to be our friend? That's a possible I guess but not when you register for this site not so coincidentally at a time when our loss in the Play Offs is still raw & upsetting plus open with a remark about buying one of our...

    [Offers] So.... how much for Knockaert?

    The worrying relevance of this intended jibe is how Clubs will be flocking like vultures for our better players & we need to get them signed & committed to Albion for another attempt & then for when we reach the Prem. Same with CH We can laugh at the northern Neanderthals but they can offer our...

    Are we one of the unluckiest clubs out there?

    Sorry but this comes across too much as a self pity party. As we only lost 5 league games I am sick inside we won't be going up but I refuse to blame luck There's not a Club in the Championship or any other division that couldn't moan about 'if onlys' - OK Aston Villa excluded. To get so near &...

    Shameful and wrong on both remarks.

    Brighton & Hove Albion Vs Sheffield Wednesday ****OFFICIAL MATCH THREAD****

    Apologies. Emotions are raw & I thought you were giving up on the Club on a night it's hard but vital to stay together. Next season OK? If there's any justice we'll do it. We''re owed it. Sure we made mistakes but how many during the course of the season itself? Few but sadly in the last few...

    Brighton & Hove Albion Vs Sheffield Wednesday ****OFFICIAL MATCH THREAD****

    Come on. Man up. What more could we have done? Jeez that's a ridiculous comment. We lost JUST 5 games in the Championship & STILL lost out to a team that plays hoof ball & one that kicked & conned us in the last league game Be proud. The team gave all they could. The support was deafening. Do...

    Brighton & Hove Albion Vs Sheffield Wednesday ****OFFICIAL MATCH THREAD****

    The pace we've moved the ball along the line then in the final third has been too fast for them. Every set piece we are causing problems or looking like scoring. Disgusting the Ref or assistant missed the push that created the gap for a hopeful cross to go in Having said how well we've been...

    Unlucky lads.

    Karanka? Own up it's you isn't it? The mastery of English & lack of any football grace gives it away. Sorry to tell you Bud but you'll be looking for a new job in June. Ince or Robson will have already been on the phone to Gibson kissing his ear I know some condolences are meant well but right...

    Playoff 2nd leg (home match) not included in season ticket

    I know you meant this to put the OP's comment down but in writing that sure makes us look like sad regular bridesmaids :down:

    Bookies have us third favourites for the play-offs

    Pure guesswork based on what? Only Hull won today & they scored 5? That's not exactly a scoreline that's come after a good run is it? Of the teams in contention around Xmas Hull must be having the biggest regrets they blew it so badly. Forget a 5-1 win over Rotherham today who had zilch to play...

    Scuffle in the dug outs

    Pretty sure it was CC who barged their big galoot who'd leapt across into our technical zone to prevent us taking a quick throw. He was quite large with grey hair I think - from their coaching staff he looked like Leo Percovich (keepers coach) or Dave Parnaby (Academy Manager)...

    Never a red + we had boro bricking it

    Yes I'm saying exactly that. Shin pads are considered a necessary part of a player's kit & must be worn for the duration of each game by every player including goalies There was some debate earlier this season (maybe last?) about whether Jack Grealish wears them & he came forward to say he...

    Never a red + we had boro bricking it

    Just seen it from several angles on Sky as opposed to as it happened in 'real time' when I was fuming at Dale for what seemed a high, dangerous challenge. Now it's more than debatable if there was any intent. Both players are totally focussed on winning the ball! It was a yellow at most - the...

    Charlton planning last game abandonement v Burnley!

    To be fair he did mention hand grenades So you'd refuse the win then? That'd be most extreme fan solidarity. We appreciate that. Very sporting of you
