[Albion] Arsenal vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Gabbafella]

Can't see anything good coming from today's game. Unfortunately I think we'll lose comfortably.

 

[Justice]

Welbeck last five minute hatrick to win 3-2.

 

[beardy gull]

Away pubs today anyone? Seem to recall one on a corner near Finsbury Park last season? Not the name of it though!

 

[zefarelly]

Have a good feeling about this!

Me too, probably as i have tickets!

 

[Dick Head]

So excited

Staggered this isn’t the TV game

 

[KZNSeagull]

Today is mine and Mrs KZN's 29th wedding anniversary. If we win we will have 29 points. It's an omen

Highly over-confident. As usual.

I just want to go back to bed and sleep until the game is over.

Can't see anything other than a thrashing sadly. But we should keep up our scoring so 1-3. Really hope arsenal don't score early.

On a side note I'm gonna try and cycle through Hampstead and Highgate to this one. 25 minutes apparently. Will make a lovely change to the awful grind of hours on end of trains to the home games. And back in time for the Liverpool man u game.

Defiantly.

More Wet Sham on the train than BHA
Maybe Brighton fans are just better dressed

 

[amexer]

Juast hoping Dunk does not get booked

 

[Coldeanseagull]

I want us to win just for the comedic meltdown from the gooners!
Although, the 3 points would be quite useful in the league as well!

 

[oldboyroy]

We're capable of winning any game but likewise with them. Would happily take a point though!

 

[Taybha]

Whatever happens today I'd be inclined to give the lads a free pass after Thursday night,they must be smashed,they pretty much gave everything,I still think we'll get something today even if it is a hiding

 

[Zeberdi]

Glad our players don’t have this defeatist attitude when they go out on the pitch that some posters here are expressing Come on, where’s the hope? Where’s the belief?

Yes, we have lots of injuries still and Arsenal are a better team now than they were last season (better than us) but we just won our group in the Europa League - if we play like we did on Thursday, we stand a good chance of taking them - As I said yesterday, teams like Liverpool, Citeh, Man U etc play end to end open games and are easier for us to beat than teams we ‘should’ beat that are much lower down the table - Arsenal won’t be playing a middle to low block but coming for us - that suits us - a bit of luck and some very good finishing today could see us on the right side of a what will be an incredibly tough but perhaps marginal game.

Let’s get behind the lads
UTA

 

[giveusfalmerplease]

I got 7.2/1 on Albion win on betfair worth a tenner punt

 

[Affy]

I had a feeling we were going to smash Burnley and got it wrong. I have a feeling this will be a disappointing afternoon so I’m hoping I’m wrong once again. We have a good record here but injuries and lack of downtime give Arsenal a big advantage. Should be a good game regardless. UTA.

 

[Stat Brother]

Take the 3-0 now, come home and prepare for Thursday.
