Got mine. They seem to have sorted out the system such that it handles demand - had to wait a few minutes for it to connect me, but it retries automatically and I got it done without any bother. No complaints here. Until the away tix go on sale, obviously - then it would be rude not to join the...
Firstly, as has been said on here already, let's just take care of our own work first and get in, before we worry about who we do or don't get in the play-offs. IF we find ourselves already in by then, as Lord B says, there may be some flexibility in team selection for Wolves, but I'd be very...
We're sitting in fourth place in the second tier, probably the strongest second tier in the history of the English game. Compared to bumbling along in 91st place in the league, in somebody else's stadium 75 miles away, it's absolutely unbelievable. Unbelievable.
Police everywhere this morning. Roads shut from 7am, police on every tube platform, swarming round the ticket hall at Leicester Square, Charing Cross Road shut, human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria...
I've got an accy on:
Cardiff, Partick Thistle, Brechin, Queen of the South, Man U and Paris St Germain to win - returns just under 10-1 if they all do so.
(Edit: Man U are playing tomorrow I think, so strictly speaking it's a Tuesday/Weds night bet.)
It's nice that there are quite a few high-quality candidates, but Bridders is a clear winner for me. I disagree with Withdean Wanderer, I think it's the other way round - Poyet sets us up to play through him because he knows he's good enough to handle it. It takes a special kind of discipline...
Quite. I'd rather miss out altogether than get in and then lose to that lot, either in the semis or, much worse, the final. One splendid, never-to-be-forgotten win on St. Patrick's Day cannot erase years of natural pessimism engendered by being a lifelong Brighton fan. I rather thought that was...
Ryan Giggs has class, Dennis Irwin had class, still doesn't stop their employer being the Evil Empire. I'm with Lyndhurst on this one, but I would be, following the other side in the Subway Series.
Coming down to Brighton on the train from London, just north of Haywards Heath, the line runs into the town on a viaduct which offers spectacular views across God's own county both left and right. Always gives me a pleasant feeling of good fortune to be from where I am, no matter how many times...
Absolutely not. The club ran a poll on this while we were still at the Goldstone I think, and the result was overwhelmingly in favour of retaining GOSBTS. Ditching that is on a par with, or even worse than, after-goal celebration music. :nono:
After completing his time in Valencia, Bruno Saltor, 32, decided at the end of last season to start a new professional and personal adventure, to leave for English football, specifically at Brighton & Hove Albion, in the Championship (English second division ). "We've lived in Brighton & Hove...
I ended up changing to BT from Virgin because their router is designed to avoid clashes with other WiFi signals. There are so many WiFi networks in my street (I can see 13 when I look with any device in my house) that it was getting laughable, slowing up and dropping out altogether in the end...
Obtuse? His exact quote: "Don't know how you didn't win, you outclassed us! Still great ground and good atmosphere. Was delighted with a point we didn't deserve." What words in that give you any indication that he's comparing it with anything?
And no, he wouldn't know what our usual noise is...
