you’d think we’d have learned by now not to take the mick. Utterly dominated us last week on our own patch and finished above us on the last day of last season. You’ve got to be thick as mince to take the piss out of palace losing against Arsenal given our form and we’re playing them v.soon. We could get a right hiding.

Maybe but Palace could conceivably go into Xmas fourth bottom and only four points about Ipswich. They are in an actual relegation scrap.

Been listening to the game on the way home. Those last week on here talking bollocks about the atmosphere at selhurst etc compared to the Amex... it sounded so quiet from the moment I started listening 15 or so mins in at 1-2, and this for a game against arsenal only a goal down. Total myth that selhurst has a decent atmosphere

There is a constant talking down of the Amex atmosphere by a large number of Brighton supporters, but IMO whilst we aren't the noisiest stadium, the atmosphere is nowhere near as bad as some delight in telling everyone they can. The fact that at 90% of clubs a poor performance generates a poor atmosphere-as the "greatest fans in the world" proved tonight by leaving in droves well before the end, and a very subdued atmosphere second half (At least on the tellybox it appeared that way).

The Selhurst atmosphere is a myth generated by TV companies who use sound from the microphones right next to the "Always Ultras" If the TV companies used just the microphones placed underneath the police box at the Amex, our atmosphere would sound amazing

Truth is that English Grounds on the whole (barring a few) arent the hotbeds of passion and fervour that European grounds can be. Most clubs have the same early leavers as Brighton, most clubs grounds empty when the home side is getting tanked.

If you think they've got it bad, we play these goon(ers) in a few weeks time!
Watch and wait.

I posted in positives from today (last Sunday) ….. that I’m away for that, out of the country in fact. Arteta’s spent mega money in his reign, the London biased media never mention it. Yep, an easy Arse win at the Amex.

On their forum fans admitted leaving tonight at 65 and 70 minutes. They’re just the same as everyone else.

City fans getting bored and leaving early to.
You are only as good as your last game in football. We looked much better today. JPVH what was he doing in midfield though?

Were you there? Or did you have Radio Sussex on and a stream? Huge respect from me for Cantor/Aspinall, as both call out players making bad decisions or having a poor game. Today highly critical of Gruda (get the ball in!) and Pedro, the JPVH gaff and the Ayari misses.

But full of praise for Wieffer, Dunk, Baleba, Veltman throughout, and Lamptey's cameo.

I love balance and honesty, not happy-clapper delusion.

I was watching the stream and found the second half quite entertaining brave defending from West Ham at times. Still trying to work out how Ferguson missed these sitters he didn’t really have one, fans need to get of the back of this young lad.
