[Albion] AEK Athens FC vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Muzzy]

Sometimes you have to win ugly, we did tonight.
Igor MOTM for me

 

[Sussexscots]

Yaaassss ya dancer! Get in! So proud of our team tonight. Back to back away games on Europe two wins, two clean sheets.

Magical times.

Live it, love it!

 

[chickens]

Through to the next round, not our greatest performance but we’re through.

I love it when a plan comes together.

 

[Sheebo]

Come on AJAX!

Win or draw makes no difference - I’m gonna watch - but fear Marseille will win.

 

[Mr Bridger]

Any idea of dates of the next round games?

 

[hart's shirt]

Qualified from the group in the top 2 with a game to spare.

When the group was drawn, I think we'd have all taken that.

Well done Albion. You just keep on making me smile.

 

[Weststander]

Cheer up

Sidwell: “Let’s not sugar coat this, that was a poor performance”.

 

[El Turi]

Ground out the result and no injuries so a good evening all round!

 

[Krafty]

Poor performance but got the result. Can't argue with that really.

Into the knockout rounds, and hopefully we can finish in top spot.

 

[Uh_huh_him]

He’s really settled in now.

Looks absolute quality.

Hope he's fit.
Looking forward to see him and JPVH on sunday

Had a Forrest away feel in the last 20, only they had the 10 men, we just played like it.

 

[Coldeanseagull]

I thought Bart and young Jack had good games, Dunk, Veltman and Igor were solid enough...it was the rest who got their bad game out of the way! Luckily, AEK proved to not be all that

 

[Uh_huh_him]

Poor performance but got the result. Can't argue with that really.

Into the knockout rounds, and hopefully we can finish in top spot.

Yeah - but that's a decent Europa Away performance.
Big Balls.

 

[Soton Seagull]

Iffy performance any many points but I'd have taken a draw at half time so very happy.

If it wasn't against us i'd have felt for the guy who was sent off as it was clumsy not nasty. However that Vida chap should've gone so evens it out.

Forget today and get a result against Marseille to avoid the play off lottery.

 

[kevo]

Come on Ajax! A win or draw would mean we'd only need a draw against Marseille to top the group and go straight through to the last 16.

 

[zefarelly]

Given tiredness, injuries etc, that was an incredible Result.

Now . . . We have weapons grade scum to deal with on Sunday. We can celebrate now, but the players need all the help they can get. . .so I'll drink all my wine ;-)

 

[TWOCHOICEStom]

That was f***ing DREADFUL. And I love it.

 

[HangletonGull]

So if we finish 2nd in the group and lose the play off game we still go into the conference lge?

 

[Krafty]

Marseille vs Ajax now.

Not an important match for us, but it will determine whether we need to win or draw against Marseille in order to achieve top spot.

 

[Eric the meek]

We're through.

Palace having to suffer our progress for at least another couple of months..

Brutal reality for any lurking Palace fans. Brutal.
