How Much Are you Worried about Wednesdays Cup Game

[Mendoza]

Although the game doesnt matter, and we wont see a Man City first team in all likeliness (sp) this has just happened

Manchester City 6 - 0 Portsmouth.

The way of the world of Brighton & Hove Albion, we will probably play well, but this 6-0 scoreline is a bit scary, especially with our like of creativity to break down 8 outfield players

I just dont want to embarress ourselves further and turn away the floating Brighton fans that will be there to watch. Hopefully the Withdean faithfull will be more understanding of Adams and stop calling for his head

I may end up eating my words but this strikes me as the type of match that will end up 2 or 3 nil.

 

[Icy Gull]

We will be annihilated, anything less than a 4-0 defeat will be a moral victory. Whatever the scoreline I won't hold it against Adams in this game though, as we'd struggle not to get thrashed even if we were playing well.

Be nice to put in a decent performance on the way to defeat but I won't be holding my breath. I was really excited when this draw was made but the reality is, with the way we're playing, we have no chance.

I'm not worried at all as I expect nothing.

 

[Jello]

nothing can be as embarassing as losing to 9 men at home, least I hope not

whose saying we wont bounce back from yesterday put in a great performance, and citeh strol down thinking it'l be a walkover and score line end up 1-0 to BHA


*wakes from dream*

If the even only play 6 first teamers we could be lookig at douible figures. the heaviest Albion defeat of all time is on the cards.

Cheer up US. You never know, some players might realise they are playing for their place and we may do ok.

 

[bristolseagull]

I fancy us to do 'em, going on recent home form and all that.....

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

I would be interested in the odds. I would think its around

Brighton 7/1
Draw 3/1
Man City 1/16

 

[Publius Ovidius]

I think it will be a lot closer than we expect. These games tend not to be a thrashing as we all expect.

maybe 1-3 or a draw and extra time....penalties would be nice

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

Have you been drinking Dave ?.

 

[Knotty]

Not worried in the least. Looking forward to it, but was never expecting anything other than a City win.

Yesterday is irrelevant. We'll probably have more room to play than we did yesterday, but we'll still lose.

 

[Publius Ovidius]

Have you been drinking Dave ?.

at least I go to the games these days !

I was looking for you to sit next to yesterday and you were not there!!!

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

Dave

I will be there for the res of the home games this year and on Wednesday. Feel free to wander over.

I was just going to say the very same thing. When a team that's just won 7-0 plays a team that's just lost 7-0 the result is invariably 0-0 or 1-0; certainly it never approaches 14-0 which you might think it 'should' do.

We're the underdogs and everybody's expecting us to get thrashed. Consequently the pressure's off us and on them, if we can keep it to 0-0 for twenty minutes or so, well you never know.

Why do you keep saying the game doesnt matter? It does matter if you have paid 24 to watch it. I go the Withdean to watch the thrills and spills of live football. All games matter to me.

 

[Conkers]

I would be interested in the odds. I would think its around

Brighton 7/1
Draw 3/1
Man City 1/16

Bet365:
Brighton 4/1
Draw 13/5
Man City 8/13

Man City to win by 2 or more goals: 9/5

Get on LARGE
