[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Arsenal *** Official Match Thread ***

[portslade seagull]

Maybe we could get some deck chairs shipped up from the seafront for the Arsenal defence

I am really not one to prophesize doom and gloom, but that team selection has given me an aneurism. Here's hoping this is the start of some sort of bizarre and underwhelming sports underdog movie

i always thought he was not capable of a plan B but blimey......a plan z

 

[TottonSeagull]

Potter body language looks very negative but here's hoping

I thought he looked very down in his interview! Absolutely no spark there at all! Still, maybe he is pulling off a master stroke of tactical planning. We shall see!

Well that team looks weak all over - nightmare tee selection. 3 points in the bag?

 

[The Fits]

If anyone watches the Football League Show, Colin Murray can apparently be VERY dismissive of any pundit who comes on and is vague. Essentially refuses to work with them.
He demands even the most experienced pros have something interesting to say, and that they've researched the teams they are talking about.
It should all be like this.

The female commentator knows nothing...’ they are difficult to break down’ re us!

She just said the black 4! [emoji23]

 

[vagabond]

I have had the TV on mute to ignore the arsenal love in bias, but yet I've still managed to hear her state that 3 times.

She doesn’t know anything about us... that’s ok.

Not worth getting bothered about the top 6 pundits. They’d be happier with a break away League most likely. That’s as far as their football knowledge goes.

Said that twice now too

Potter sounded like even he thinks we are going to lose with that line up

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Is that a new euphemism for bed wetting?

If it's not already, it certainly should be

 

[PWA]

I don't normally view or comment on the pre-match thread but when I saw the line-up I just had to come on

No doubt you will be delighted with an Arsenal win [emoji106]

One home win all year and none this season Jesus ****ing Christ what is wrong with some of our fans

Maybe they just enjoying supporting their club instead of constant name calling and slagging off.

 

[JC Footy Genius]

This match thread is already beautifully primed to be a classic, Potter loyalists v Potter doubters ... lot's of' I told you so's' on the way!

 

[CliveWalkerWingWizard]

Off the fence, time to go. If we do get 3 points I will say the same. 3 players starting with nearly no game time, no striker. The new tinkerman has gone too far.

I’m not a fan of the phrase and no idea who started using it but “bedwetters” is so appropriate.

It’s not, never has been and never will be

 

[NorthLainer]

Andone is rehabilitating and is not even kicking a ball yet.
You're clearly not a Brighton fan or you're joking.

That whooshing noise above your head is a joke

 

[Mike Small]

Potter sounded like even he thinks we are going to lose with that line up

Our team mirror him sadly. No real fight or belief. Dull.

**** off you p.rick.
