A momentary clenching of the fists and a brief uncomfortable man hug. I'd say that's total ecstasy where CH is concerned.

Many a manager would be running down the touchline screaming about how brilliant they were. :whistle:

I also f*cking loved the way Muzza headed the whole length of the pitch to celebrate with Brighton fans. Something he never really bothered to do. I believe he actually loves playing for us now and not the sulky git he was a few years ago.

I think someone mentioned earlier that Birmingham would tire.

For the last 10 minutes Birmingham really started to fade, very encouraging to see us keep the pressure on and capitalise on that.

To be fair, we want to see the pressure we exerted in the last 25 minutes start from the kick off. We were dominated in midfield for most of the game which impacts our ability to supply the forwards. GM has no pace and cannot create chances from passes to him 25 yards from the goal. Would be really good to see a much greater sense of urgency in the earlier part of the game. cant help feeling that CH takes of players who are not punching their weight.

Could be something to do with having a manger who thinks he's quality don't you think?

Last season we would have absolutely never won that game.. we are made of solid rock this season, we push and push and we make teams buckle even if they are totally in control. We might just do this, for the first time I believe!!!!



Last season, we were one nil down to the Brummies, and scored a ninety third minute winner,(Sidwell) so, maybecwe would



Sorry,I'm wrong, we did go one nil down to Brum last season and won 2-1, but it was Dunk and Goldson who scored and not quite that late

Watched it on my own in a London pub - six screens showing United, one showing Brighton. Went mental when Murray scored. Surprised I wasn't sectioned!

David Prutton (see skysports.com) predicted a 1-2 win.

On 90, not sure I would have.

Epic performance from the boys. CH got it bang on with game-changing subs. Say no more, we're in safe hands.

The chasing clubs will be absolutely gutted this evening. Another reason to celebrate.

And they watched it live, once I stopped doing Lua Lua style celebrations at home I could hear a huge sigh from the rest of the Championship, I think.

Just a word to all our detractors when we lose a game. Please feel free to enjoy our joy :smile:

Sympathies, I watched it on my own on a strange stream here in Dubai which tends to be a bit hit and miss and freezes 10 seconds before each goal . Delighted to say I will be in the west stand for the QPR match on the 27th.

I think that was at Nottingham.
