Under your skin.
Especially as you seemed to think we'd lose 4 or 5 nil. Can I ask a question? Why are you so negative?

Because he has an IQ of 8? :blush:

Brighton - In your face
We all know it's a good team but whether we win or lose pre-season means f*** all. That said it will give the players some confidence.

We're gonna win the bloody league!!

Was at the game last night and friendly or not we absolutely battered Sunderland's first team in the first half. Kishishev was f***ing outstanding, Sparrow has an engine like Nobby Horton, Greer was quality, Nav and Calderon likewise, and no joke - Muzza completely overshadowed Jones and Bent. If Gus can just coach Bennett to take one quick touch and then whip in crosses he'd be devasatating as well. My brother lives in Portugal and he commented after 20 minutes that he couldn't believe how good the Albion were. I really am not one for getting carried away - too many false dawns and all that - but if Gus keeps them playing and passing like that (and the first 12/13 stay fit) then we may be on the brink of something special next season. Finally, what a turn out from Brighton fans; loads of us and bloody noisy.

I was also at the game and have to say that is a spot on assessment. Speaking to a mate after the game who'd had a drink with Sunderlands old bill they quoted crowd of 900 with 600 of us and 300 Mackems.
