Brighton and Hove Albion v Newcastle United FA Cup round three***Official Match Thread***

[FamilyGuy]

Soft sending off really.

Like Gordon Smith said, you don't roll around if you've really been hurt.

Good performance. Hoskins did what CMS couldn't; intelligent runs into the right areas at the right time. The TV commentary was very critical of CMS's inability to control the ball and link up play.
Bridcutt is Makelele reincarnated. If only he was 2 or 3 inches taller.
Worried when they started pumping balls in the box though. We don't handle it very well. Adam is an accident waiting to happen with all the wrestling and no attempt to jump for the ball.
Quality performance despite the reservations.

 

[glasfryn]

just one word
YES

What a bunch of cheating c**ts. Awful team to watch.

Boring as f**k, make cynical challenges, and dive all over the place.

The irony of the BBS.

 

[Bigbelly]

This.

Newcastle look as poor a side as we've played this season.

We made them look poor.

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

Just shows that when we mix up our style by putting in the odd long pass it does make us harder to read and provides different scoring opportunities.

Best thing to see is that it finally seems Gus realises we need our midfielders to push up into the box to support the strikers.

Yet again Poyet f***'s up with a team selection. I despair.

And what do you know?

 

[matthew]

2-0 Brighton trending worldwide!

Hopefully we can play like the last 2 games consistently

You been waiting all this time to come up with that..It was a good performance against a very weak side, lets not get carried away. That said, I though we payed them off the park and a really classy cool finish by Hoskins, lets hope he gets a good run in the side now.

I have been reading your miserable rubbish for weeks on end and the last two results show that your theories regarding Poyet and team morale are misguided at best. You need to cheer up, support YOUR team and get some positivity into your life. You may not like Poyet, but he is here to stay and you had better learn to live with it.

 

[Titus]

Big game again and Poyet goes for a defencive line up, will he never learn. That side has as much cutting edge as my knob. Expect Buckley and Lualua to come on with 25mins to go, we may snatch a goal and Gus will be hailed a tactical genius for scrapping a draw. That's if the game isn't beyond us by then.

Good old Kev. ALWAYS wrong.

 

[Boys 9d]

It seems that according to the 2 Gordons Newcastle were the only team worth talking about.

 

[leamo]

Great result. Looking forward to the the draw and next round already! 2 great finishes today and we looked good on tv even though Newcastle were shocking today. Well deserved win, Well done lads!

 

[FamilyGuy]

Excellent work Bridcutt.

Mom surely!

 

[tweenster]

Superb team performance and some outstanding individual performances.

I'm very happy this afternoon.

 

[Titus]

Ankergren isn't a decent keeper LuaLua didn't want to play former club apparently, don't understand that myself, could really have done with him starting I feel, especially in place of Dicker

Another no-nothing poster.

 

[pasty]

Did I hear right that the mom announced over the pa at the ground was Bridge ?

 

[kevtherev]

Good old Kev. ALWAYS wrong.

Come on be honest, everyone feared the worse before the game. We played well against Newcastle reserves, lets not kid ourselves.

 

[W.C.]

Best thing to see is that it finally seems Gus realises we need our midfielders to push up into the box to support the strikers.

THANK GOD Gus realises that now. Where would the football ignoramus be without his knowledgeable fans.

 

[worthingseagull123]

We made them look poor.

We played well, but I am not getting carried away.

They don't have to seem anyone who can score.

Very lacklustre squad of players.

If they don't sign a striker they will go down.

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

After the sham performance against Watford the players are putting in an effort at last.
