Starting a revolution from my bed
So are you going to prove where I have posted anti-Potter or anti-Brighton comments?


I watched the game and I have an opinion - go back and look at the comments for the first 25/30 minutes of the second half - most people were saying Brighton were a shambles and that it wasn't looking good - I was one (and not the only one) who said a single goal wouldn't be enough and that Arsenal were 'fragile' and could be beaten. This does not take away from the fact that Arsenal had at least 4 clear-cut chances to score after they equalised and if they had I think they would have gone on and won the game. Instead - Arsenal proved to be fragile and Brighton got the business done - and deservedly so - over the 90 mins they were the better team. If Arsenal had won the game I would have held the view that they were lucky, they didn't deserve to win it and Brighton were the better team - but that does not take away from the fact that Arsenal had clear-cut chances to take the lead and potentially win the game at that point. You need a bit of luck in football and Brighton got it tonight and got what they deserved.

As I said, all subtle comments that you had to read behind the lines to see, like myself and plenty others have done on here as you can see tonight.

And you’ve posted yet more guff embezzled in as many words as possible to cover your awful argument. Four clear cut chances[emoji23]Honestly, give it up.

Seriously - look weak - that is a new one. If I was weak I would have pissed off months ago than put up with the constant insults -

All I have done on here is defend a guy who did a fantastic job for the club and doesn't deserve the bile that has been and continues to be heaped on him. Most people on here show what I would consider the appropriate respect for someone who gave his all while he was here - a few are intent on tarnishing what he achieved at the club - all I have done is call them out when they have acted that way.If people stopped with the nonsense then I would not be posting responses to it.

You are not weak, you are just the guy who texts his ex-girlfriend for two years after it ended. Its sort of romantic and passionate, I guess. But its also the height of useless. Factors you have no power to influence has removed CH from the club and its really your choice to grief about it or to move on and be curious about the present and the future.

oooooh!

Post match you were clearly gutted by the “lucky win”. This is Albion forum, with some others who are open about their allegiances and play the game.

And back to tonight....that was emotional. What a piece of cool controlled measured victory, at the home of the invisibles. I may have made a spelling mistake there, maybe not.

Let's go with a couple of facts:

Graham Potters' last two games in charge away at Arsenal - 2 wins out of two

Chris Hughton's last two games in charge away at Arsenal - one point.

Agree. By all means post on NSC if you are a polite interloper. But don't post under cover. It is terribly misleading, and what we call a right load of old cheeky bollocks. Fact.

From the Beeb:
"Managerless Arsenal's season plummeted to a new low as they were beaten at home by Brighton in interim manager Freddie Ljungberg's first home match in charge."

This DEFINITELY said "struggling Brighton" earlier!

It was. Massive win tonight which had a big bearing on our odds.

I was getting a bit concerned before tonight, that we might go down despite the nice football, due to mistakes in defence and a lack of confidence up front. Tonight was a game changer for me, to be on 18 points, with a new coach, after that run of nightmare PL fixtures, it all looks really promising. I know where you stand normally, but can you see this at all now?

Still says 'struggling' in the headline on the sports page. Needs updating obviously.

Superb win, superb performance. 20 shots away at Arsenal! Should have won more convincingly but no complaints from me, we fully deserved it.

One things that pisses me off is the BBC with the headline "Arsenal lose at home to Brighton", erm no, it was very much "Brighton deservedly win at Arsenal". Drives me mad how they refuse to acknowledge our performance and result just because Arsenal are a much bigger club. I could understand and forgive it if we had done a smash-and-grab job tonight, but we didn't. We outplayed them for large parts!

There's a real Arsenal bias at the BBC for sure.......
