[Albion] Positives from Today (Norwich)

[WATFORD zero]

Can't ever be too disappointed with a point away from home. Could have won it; could very easily have lost it.

BDB was excellent, Lamptey is back playing in the Prem, a clean sheet, but most importantly.....I'll be on a plane in fewer than 12 hours and headed back to blighty, and will be present at Albion's next match!

I'm away and missing the City match, but when I see posts like this I realise how lucky I am to see so many games. Have a great time and we really should be beating teams like City

We played shite and somehow didn't lose

 

[um bongo molongo]

In Champions League spots. Make sure the passport is valid

We are still work on progress. We are far from a finished article. We were poor today, maybe should have had a penalty and still had a few chances but gifted some easy chances to them which is unlike us. But we are 4th and worst case 5th after 8 games. 15 points. Even if we lose the next 2 we would still have had an amazing start to the season.
Lampety was back
We have conceded just 5 goals so far which is 3rd best in the division
We took a point from a game we would have lost last year.

Another point added to our excellent early tally, earned at a stadium so often a graveyard for visiting Albion teams.

Norwich considered this a must-win and they didn’t.

Last year Norwich were in the Championship, and the season before we beat them at Carrow Road.

Pfff, facts! It's NSC!

Bear pit postage

Worst case scenario we'll be in 5th. place going into the next round of fixtures (unless Spurs put eight past Newsaudi United tomorrow).

I got my first point in the predictor league - woo hoo!

 

[dazzer6666]

Only 2hrs 15mins to get home once I got out of the car park (so 3hrs total), and my weak bladder coped without a stop. Small victories.

We didn't lose, Norwich missed a couple of sitters any other PL team would have scored

Hope you were careful with those A11 speedcameras, that's seriously quick!!!

Yep……just completely hold-up free the whole way home as soon as I was on the outskirts of Norwich…….

God awful day on the trains only just left London

I only listened on the radio but it sounded like a point gained as Norwich missed at least one sitter and Dunk and BDB especially made some very important interceptions to keep the clean sheet. Warren was convinced it was a penalty so we were unlucky there, but when the chips were down we defended very well. As said elsewhere we have the third best ( least) goals conceded and that is very impressive.

Towards the end we were going for it and it sounded like Norwich had at least 2 breaks with 2 on 1 (or 3 on 2?) yet couldn't score. One thing's for sure, we will finish 20 -25 points above them, which shows the progress we are making.

Heard there were some bus replacements on some routes…..

Why do we look identical to the last two seasons under GP in the final third depressing slow and avoid of ideas. Defenders have an easy 90 minutes against us the majority of the time I had a bit of hope in the first few games of the season get the ball forward don’t stop and Burnley found themselves losing 2-1 unfortunately we have slipped back into old habits the last couple of games.

 

[Is it PotG?]

Met some "away" trekkers not seen for a few years.

Which was nice.

That’s astonishing.



Our record Brighton to Centreparc Eleveden was 2 hours, leaving early in the morning in a quiet school holidays, once the new A11 dual carriageway had been sorted.

Not really……70mph (ish) all the way (maybe a teeny bit more in places ). Really rare to get such a clear run anywhere these days. Car park was absolutely shite though….took 45 mins to get out. Won’t use that one again.

Took me about 3.15 this morning. Diverted via Ipswich due to big hold up on the A11, then diverted again off the A140 as there was a crash. Saw a few Norfolk country lanes

You’ll get a season off, I doubt Norwich will be in the EPL next season.
