[Albion] Ball #8

[Albion my Albion]

I hope for [insert any team within a convenient 45-minute or so radius from my location], away.

Yes, but how do the mascots match up?

 

[Eeyore]

It has but we still put out decent teams, maybe 1 or 2 changes. Also, I think the majority of our games in those 2 seasons were away. We played Coventry and WBA at home, I can't remember any others.

2018- Palace (H) Middlesbrough (A) Coventry City (H) Fielded weakened sides against weakened sides (except Cov). Good win at Boro though. Late Murray goal.

2019- Bournemouth (A)- I think about 18-19 changes across both sides. WBA then Derby County at home (WBA put out a weakened side). Millwall (A)- we put a stronger(ish) side out (I think).

I don't think there is any reason why we shouldn't make it a priority. Folk do say it isn't important but soon get into it !

Dunno, but we've got four Wetherspoons within a twenty minute walk of the local ground here. If that's not enough to entice you, I don't know what will!

I do like to take my mrs and go Wetherspooning.

Carlisle away for me please

The same Millwall that knocked Everton out, who were greatly helped by a rubbish referee, and couldn't keep up for 90 minutes plus extra time? Who couldn't out score us in a penalty shootout? That Millwall?

I have no idea why you still carry a torch for that game.

[MENTION=205]Tom Hark, Preston Park[/MENTION] is correct, the Albion were woeful that day.
Only 2 things were worse, the weather and Millwall.

Winning doesn't automatically mean good.

For the Albion to progress their keeper had to throw the ball into his own net, that is not a performance to champion.

Brighton beat Millwall and the Referee , two wins in a day has to be good.

Millwall lost to Brighton even with the referee.

I love St.James's Park, and paid a few visits there to watch the Albion in years past. Have they knocked down that row of old Victorianlooking houses along one side of the ground now?

The slow motion replay showed the ball going straight through his hands, so it wasn't an own goal. There was still another 30 minutes play after that, and the penalty shoot out.
It was reminiscent of the Swindon playoff game where they were better, but still lost due to a lapse.

 

[jessiejames]

g







I'm going for Middlesbrough or Leeds away.

 

[Raleigh Chopper]

Ah, the annual Plymouth away if they get through the 2nd round thread.
I like a bit of tradition.

There's nowt so blind as those that won't see.
From 11 minutes on wards.



You are correct there was a further 30 minutes, you've omitted the fact that was against 10 men.
Followed by a penalty shoot out.

It's ok to say 'blimey we were shite that day'.
Yet every time someone does, and we do frequently, (because we were shite that day) you jump to the games defense, even now making stuff up.

I just don't understand why you have such a thing for that game (which was shite).

 

[Coldeanseagull]

I want Manc city at home. Time to get our own back. Failing that, any lowly league team at home

Nobody's asking you to understand.

Can you post a link to that replay because everyone I've seen shows the ball going wide!

It's on the club site. March is also credited with the goal, not an own goal.

They've renovated the north/west side of the ground, but most of the surrounding neighbourhood is still residential/student accommodation now.

The ball was going out until it hit the keepers arm. Believe what you want but that is the video evidence.
