Noone..."This is Anfield"

[pork pie]

El P, we all know they won the European Cup 5 times when they were good in the 70's & 80's. Some might also know that Liverpool used to be a second division club in the 60s. But neither is the point. Clough would not have tolerated a "lets all have a lovely day trip attitude", neither would Ferguson and neither should have Poyet. But we learn, and move on.

I tend to agree with that. I can't help feeling that Gus had some sort of hidden agenda over the whole match. He just did not appear to care like he usually does. He played a dangerous game by fielding and out and out attacking team (unlike him). Maybe he was trying to make a point about how far we still need to progress to get extra funds from TB or something? I don't think Noone should have been played, like Wing after similarly pathetic comments about Villa before we played them.

To those of you saying it was ok to have the photo taken, I agree with you. BUT he should have kept it away from the media.

Now I know it was a big day for the lad, supporting the club as a boy etc etc and by all means take some photo's for the family album and memories etc.
But as a lifelong Brighton fan, I find it a bit of a joke that a Brighton and Hove Albion player tweets a photo of himself with another clubs sign, shortly after being thrashed 6-1....6,000 people travelled half the country on Sunday, spending hundreds of pounds in very hard times....I'm really pleased Noone had a great day, with his hero's..We are Brighton not f***ing Hastings Utd, Craig!!!!!!

100% agree... makes us look totally mickey mouse

Last year nobody would have seen it

Disappointed in Craig but not surprised. Somewhat nieve in my opinion.

 

[rouseytastic]

I have no problem with him taking the picture, just don't think he should posted it on twitter.
Let's not forget at 60 mins we were only 3-1 down, then decided to throw more people forward leading to the rout.
The crazy gang were considered a small club with a few characters.
Anyway tonight is what matters now.

Sopt on

Christ almighty, give the kid a break !!! I wish I could get my picture taken alongside the Anfield sign !! How iconic is that ? Craig's a great lad who has contributed an awful lot to our success this season. He's also one of the most exciting prospects we have. So, he's a Liverpool fanatic. Of course he is, he grew up down the road and it was probably a lifelong ambition to play at Anfield. Well, he has, albeit for Brighton and good for him. If he helps us get promotion then maybe he'll play there again. I for one, certainly hopes he will.
Get real folks and stop being so moronic about a young kid fulfilling a dream !!

That just about sums up how small time some of our so called "fans" are! The "young kid" is a professional footballer being paid to do a job. Not behave like a swooning tart!

I saw us play them at The Goldstone in the early 60s and anybody watching if pushed to say that one of those teams would be one of the best in Europe in a few years would have plumped for Brighton, but that wasn't to be.

Remember 1984's cup tie against Liverpool, scouser and Liverpool legend didn't start kissing Souness and taking his picture but nearly broke his f***ing leg and put him out of the game which we went onto win.

Now we have f***ing tarts taking pictures and swopping shirts instead of doing the job they're paid to.

Good idea, in 2012 it would have been a straight red and 3 LEAGUE games missing, smashing

What a pathetic thread!

This is primary school playground stuff. Grow up!

Personally if i was a professional footballer playing at the amex - i would have taken a picture of myself in the tunnel at the amex as brighton is the club i have supported man and boy etc - no problem with him taking a picture good on the lad.

 

[Manx Shearwater]

This thread is f*cking small time.

As for what Ferguson or Clough would have expected, who cares? They were/are two of the biggest tosspots in football.

 

[Barn Door Billy]

Yes I agree that noone's livepool love in was a bit cringy, but I can understand it to a point. As brighton fans, we find it hard to understand that someone can love another club more (or even the same as) our beloved seagulls. If one of us played for a lower league club and we drew brighton away in the cup, im sure that we would be very excited about going to the amex, even if the gulf between our two clubs wasnt that big.

Give me a tosspot who's a winner over a nice guy who's a loser, any day of the week.

 

[Icy Gull]

I haven't read the whole thread but I'd like to think that if I was a player on Sunday I'd have been down the tunnel after a quick handshake. The last thing I'd want, even as a fan of Liverpool, would be a shirt as a memento or a picture. Even 10 years down the line it would still hurt when I dug them out. "Look at this this guys, taken when my team got thrashed 6-1 at Liverpool, and we scored three of the goals" . Fan or not I'd have been embarrassed at the end and not running around hugging and posing

 

[METALMICKY]

Can't believe this picture either!

completely agree with u

 

[Weststander]

The sour grapes about the 6-1 thread continues. Hilarious.
Irrational attempt to blame the thrashing by far better players playing at home ... on Noone & Navarro.
(Just like Jimmy Case & Jimmy Melia, they too would have loved to have caused a shock & won. This time, class told).

Some failing to move on.

When all you have is insults then that does not say much for your viewpoint. Its not sour grapes, read the thread. People make valid points. Ferguson, the crazy gang nor Clough would have turned up for some grovelling day out. They would have turned up to try and win, and if not win, be as much of a pain in the arse as possible. Our players turned up for a photograph and a hug and they got what they deserved. The club and Poyet must make sure it doesn't happen again.
