[Albion] Manchester United vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Jimmy Grimble]

Cost ourselves with a few sloppy minutes. A real shame as 11v11 I’d have fancied us to score. Poor from Dunk but I thought Webster would’ve blocked the shot, he is very quick. A goal scoring opportunity, yes. A clear one? If it didn’t look clear to the ref on the first take, then it shouldn’t be overturned.

 

[fleet]

We played really well - two mistakes and we pay for it. (Dunk isn’t playing as well as Burn was)

 

[Farehamseagull]

Ah well. Uncharacteristic and unbelievably shit and lazy first 5 minutes of the 2nd half but apart from that, another very decent performance.

Move on to Saturday.

 

[paulfuzz]

The only thing worse than manure was Andy Townsend's sh@te analysis!! Bobby makes an awesome save from Ronaldo and his comment is "should have saved that" Useless A HOLE, and baying for the sending off!!!
If that had been Maguire on Neal would the same decision have been made?? just asking!!
The Albion made them look ordinary great performance from them and the away supporters

 

[Arthritic Toe]

Can we get Burn back on loan for next game?

 

[BN41Albion]

****ed over by the officials again. Always the same. What a corrupt league this is.

Why were we ****ed over? Come on, other way round we'd be livid if that wasn't given a red by VAR

 

[Beach Hut]

Grow up

What do you mean grow up ?

The vile abuse from some fans during and post match at Spurs about Maupay was obscene beyond belief

 

[TWOCHOICEStom]

I'm so annoyed Welbeck missed that header. It looks easier and easier every time you see it.

 

[miffy6]

Is Dunk out for 1 or 3?

 

[bluenitsuj]

I am so disappointed. First goal was poor play from Biss, Dunk sent off after ****ing around with the ball.

 

[smillie's garden]

We are often at our worst right at the beginning of the 2nd half, I have no idea why. Very proud of how we competed with 10: Jakub was unlucky, and Welbz should have scored. As for first half, a joy to watch.

 

[FamilyGuy]

Oh well, we made a very good fist of 10 v 11, but should never have been in that position.
Very, very, sloppy start to the 2nd half - why? God knows.
They really were there for the taking.

"In a game of two halves ......."

 

[Ding Dong !]

I actually hate them more.

I enjoy our rivalry with Palace. I really dislike United.

This !!! in fact i can honestly say i hate UTD

 

[BNthree]

I think you have ask where the game was played.
McTominay did enough for two yellows.

He did enough for at least 3 yellows.

Townsend ..once a dickhead always a dickhead..piss poor pundit

 

[Beach Hut]

Of course there won’t. He is one of our own and thousands will vote for him as POTS again, the ones who vote for him every year without question.

Edit - He has more than enough credit in the bank not to get a hard time anyway.

Why not though, Maupay has more than enough credit with what his goals converted to points is this season yet it still happened post Spurs game

 

[dolphins]

Is Dunk out for 1 or 3?

Just the one..

 

[GrizzlingGammon]

Oh come on Dunk had an absolute shocker and was always a risk of a red.

Do you honestly believe that Utd would have a player sent off in the same situation?

I have no doubt that VAR would not have looked at it if was Utd defending.

 

[One Love]

Well played lads. Didn't deserve to lose that. One or two stupid mistakes cost us.

Many many more than one or two tonight. We were very careless in possession and didn't deserve to get anything from the game.

Moder class, the rest didn't look very interested in winning at Old Trafford.

 

[Deadly Danson]

Appalling officiating, ludicrous fannying around from us for 5 mins, tinpot home support and extraordinarily awful summarising from Townsend. Hey ho.
