Marvellous scenes.

 

[GreersElbow]

With Bridders, Orlandi, Ulloa, JFC, Andrews, Kemy and CMS not available, this was a very good result. A fully fit squad and things are looking very good for the future.
Hats of to our defence, especially in the last few games.
Even though Bruno is fit, Calde should keep his place, he's been great.
The monkey of not winning from behind since the opening game of 2011, is now dumped as well.
Well happy.

It's bloody exciting to think once we have a fully fit squad, how good we could be. Emphasis on could, of course. OG's got a tough starting line up to choose from when they all return.

Great game, great win and great manager. First time I've actually met OG and he was a gentleman after the game. My son was well chuffed...

From the BBC:

Another own goal put Albion level, as Jay Spearing headed Kazenga Lua Lua's free-kick past Tomasz Kuszczak.

Yes I noticed that, a busy day for Tom running from goal to goal..

Good stuff, my lad met Ince, Upson, Crofts and Buckley in the North today. All took time to chat to him and sign autographs.

Funniest moment was when an over zealous steward wouldn't let Ince out of the North with his MOM Champers bottle.

 

[BensGrandad]

Speaking to one of my sons who sits in a different part of the ground to me he thought that Barnes should have either got a penalty or a yellow card for diving but he didn't realize that the lino had already flagged for offside, so neither could have happened

 

[saafend_seagull]

Dunno if it's been mentioned but stats suggest we had just TWO shots on target. Other goal was OG, of course.

Bournemouth had zero yet scored 3 too.

 

[portslade seagull]

Well we wont win now... we never make comebacks...

You were saying

Interesting view from a Bolton fan at the game.

Brighton were poor, Literally the most cutting edge I seen all game was the ref's through ball. Whoever it was on your left wing, Lua Lua I believe...awful! He can't kick the ball.

I have watched more of Andrews and Spearing, Spearing is 50x the player Keith Andrews is, admittedly not playing great at the minute, but Andrews was awful for us, week in, week out, for a long time.

Its strange how someone sees things so differently. Maybe its due to their emotions at the time and a more resoned response would be given later.

He must have missed spearing lunge into ward and then heading into his own net to set up the biggest collapse I've witnessed in 20 years of watching Brighton.

Cheers jay.

Jay Spearing has always been shite and always will be. It's not as if he is a youngster that is going to develop further, he is nearly 25!

 

[Seagull over Canaryland]

Sour grapes from Bolton and very blinkered as to their teams shortcomings. OK we were very average first half but they had a lead and failed to preserve it, let alone hold on for a draw. Whereas we raised our game and took all three points. The difference in attitude and commitment from the two sides explains why they are bottom of the Championship. Bizarre how a team that finished so strongly last season could be so abjectly poor this.

That might also explain why Andrews has been an excellent loan signing for us, he feels energised by Oscar Garcia and what is going on at The Amex.

We haven't played consistently anywhere near our best but hardly surprising given the disruption over the summer but it is very clear that we are steadily improving under Oscar and despite a lengthy injury list. We are still grinding out results at places like Reading and QPR. What is Bolton's excuse? OK Freedman has shown that he can resurrect Palace but can he do it again, based on Saturdays performance it looks a long way back for Bolton.

Really three years ago today.....

Wow to think we have had Sami since this and missed out on promotion on goal difference....

Wow
